  2. Wastegate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastegate

    Inside the wastegate actuator, a spring acts to open the wastegate, and oil pressure acts to close the wastegate. On the oil output side of the wastegate actuator sits the density controller, an air-controlled oil valve which senses upper deck pressure and controls how fast oil can bleed from the wastegate actuator back to the engine. As the ...

  3. Boost controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_controller

    A 3-port solenoid-type boost controller A 4-port solenoid-type boost controller (used for a dual-port wastegate). The purpose of a boost controller is to reduce the boost pressure seen by the wastegate's reference port, in order to trick the wastegate into allowing higher boost pressures than it was designed for.

  4. Variable-geometry turbocharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-geometry_turbocharger

    This design has a lower flow rate compared to VNT types so a wastegate may be incorporated with this design. [5] VGTs may be controlled by a membrane vacuum actuator, electric servo, 3-phase electric actuation, hydraulic actuator, or pneumatic actuator using air brake pressure. Unlike fixed-geometry turbines, VGTs do not require a wastegate. [6]

  5. Variable force solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_force_solenoid

    A variable force solenoid (VFS) is an electro-hydraulic device that controls pressure proportionally or inversely proportionally to a signal (voltage or current) obtained from the on-board controller of a powertrain. A low flow VFS is used as a signal level devices for transmission line pressure control or application of clutches.

  6. Starter solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_solenoid

    The starter motor is a series, compound, or permanent magnet type electric motor with a solenoid and solenoid operated switch mounted on it. When low-current power from the starting battery is applied to the starter solenoid, usually through a key-operated switch, the solenoid closes high-current contacts for the starter motor and it starts to ...

  7. The One Habit Women Over 60 Should Stop Doing - AOL

    www.aol.com/lifestyle/im-ob-gyn-one-habit...

    Most women over 60 have entered a new phase in life and health: post-menopause. According to Dr. Tara Scott, MD, gynecologist and Medical Advisor at Versalie, by the age of 60, most women are ...

  8. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

    Power consumption and supply requirements of the solenoid vary with application, being primarily determined by fluid pressure and orifice diameter. For example, a popular 3 ⁄ 4-inch 150 psi sprinkler valve, intended for 24 VAC (50–60 Hz) residential systems, has a momentary inrush of 7.2 VA, and a holding power requirement of 4.6 VA. [5]

  9. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    The solenoid can be useful for positioning, stopping mid-stroke, or for low velocity actuation; especially in a closed loop control system. A uni-directional solenoid would actuate against an opposing force or a dual solenoid system would be self cycling. The proportional concept is more fully described in SAE publication 860759 (1986).
