  2. Diffuser (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser_(thermodynamics)

    For as-cataloged diffuser performance, a straight section of duct needs serve a diffuser. An elbow, or kinked flex duct, just before a diffuser often leads to poor air distribution and increased noise. Diffusers can be as a shape of round, rectangular, or can be as linear slot diffusers (LSDs).

  3. Diffuser-augmented wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser-augmented_wind...

    Turbines equipped with a diffuser-shaped shroud and a broad exit ring generate 2–5 times more power than bare wind turbines for any given wind speed or turbine diameter. [2] Further analysis concludes that the Betz's limit can be exceeded if the wind turbine were to be equipped with a diffuser.

  4. Subsonic and transonic wind tunnel - Wikipedia

    To mitigate this, perforated or slotted walls are used to reduce shock reflection. In transonic testing, both Mach number and Reynolds number are critical and must be properly simulated. This often necessitates the use of large-scale facilities and pressurized or cryogenic wind tunnels.

  5. Gobo (lighting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gobo_(lighting)

    The use of the gobo is "subtractive", as opposed to using a "reflector" to bounce added light into a shadow (thus "additive" lighting). Use of a gobo subtracts light from a portion of an overall shaded subject and creates a contrast between one side of the subject and the other.

  7. Diffuser (sewage) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser_(sewage)

    An air diffuser or membrane diffuser is an aeration device typically in the shape of a disc, tube or plate, which is used to transfer air and with that oxygen into the sewage or industrial wastewater. Oxygen is required by microorganisms/bacteria residents in the water to break down the pollutants.

  8. Diffuser (automotive) - Wikipedia

    Top: Lateral view; the red circles mark the front air dam/splitter and rear diffuser. Bottom: Rear. A diffuser, in an automotive context, is a shaped section of the car rear which improves the car's aerodynamic properties by enhancing the transition between the high-velocity airflow underneath the car and the much slower freestream airflow of the ambient atmosphere.

  9. Fine bubble diffusers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_bubble_diffusers

    The larger air release openings of a coarse bubble diffuser helps to facilitate a higher oxygen transfer rate and bacterial growth. One disadvantage of using fine bubble diffusers in activated sludge tanks is the tendency of floc (particle) clogging the small air release holes.
