Tubular NDT (nondestructive testing) is the application of various technologies to detect anomalies such as corrosion and manufacturing defects in metallic tubes. Tubing can be found in such equipment as boilers and heat exchangers .
This aircraft first flew on June 19, 1964. Although several firms expressed interest in production of the design, all failed to provide the necessary downpayment. [2] The CCW-5 accommodated five persons, and its power plants are suspended in the center of the 6-foot (1.8 m)-chord wing channels on tubular frameworks attached to the wing spars.
Isogrid on the interior of the adapter connecting the Orion spacecraft to the Delta IV rocket for Exploration Flight Test 1. Isogrid is a type of partially hollowed-out structure formed usually from a single metal plate with integral triangular stiffening stringers.
In 2021 the first T-pylon, a new tubular T-shaped design, was installed in United Kingdom for a new power line to Hinkley Point C nuclear power station, carrying two high voltage 400 kV power lines. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] The design features electricity cables strung below a cross-arm atop a single pole which reduces the visual impact on the environment ...
In anatomy, a canal (or canalis in Latin) is a tubular passage or channel which connects different regions of the body. Examples. Cranial region Alveolar canals ...
The channel wing is an aircraft wing principle developed by Willard Ray Custer in the 1920s. The most important part of the wing consists of a half-tube with an engine placed in the middle, driving a propeller placed at the rear end of the channel formed by the half-tube.
A major factor in the design of all open channels is its gradient. A higher gradient allows a smaller channel to carry the same amount of water as a larger channel with a lower gradient, but increases the potential of the water to damage the aqueduct's structure. A typical Roman aqueduct had a gradient of about 1:4800. [12]
Gas-phase microreactors have a long history but those involving liquids started to appear in the late 1990s. [1] One of the first microreactors with embedded high performance heat exchangers were made in the early 1990s by the Central Experimentation Department (Hauptabteilung Versuchstechnik, HVT) of Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe [3] in Germany, using mechanical micromachining techniques that ...
