The previous work of Laumeister at GE on the experimental Delta electric car that debuted in 1968 helped pave the way for the production of the Elec-Trak. [2] Despite the limited production and availability of the electric tractors, many Elec-Traks are still in use today [ 3 ] and have a cult following among tractor and electric vehicle ...
Older distributor designs used a cam on the distributor shaft that operates the contact breaker (also called points). Opening the points causes a high induction voltage in the ignition coil. [ 1 ] This design was superseded by an electronically controlled ignition coil with a sensor (usually Hall effect or optical) to control the timing of the ...

Confusingly, biochemical protocols published between the 1960s [3] and 2000s refer to Shell's Nonidet P-40 as NP-40. Shell's original Nonidet P-40 had a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value of 13.5, [ 4 ] as opposed to 12.9 for the currently available IGEPAL CA-630 , [ 5 ] indicating that the currently available compound is more potent ...
An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.
From 1987 onwards, the LB4's output was 160 hp (119 kW) for pickups, while full-size vans were rated at 150 hp (112 kW). In 1988, the S-10/S-15 trucks, S-10 Blazer, and S-15 Jimmy had the LB4 4.3 L (262 cu in) as an available option (the accessory drive was upgraded to a serpentine belt drive), which later replaced the 2.8L as the base V6.
A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. [1] A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor, selecting forward or reverse rotation, selecting and regulating the speed, regulating or limiting the torque, and protecting against overloads and electrical ...
These range from 2-, 3-, and 4-cylinder models generating 15 to 135 horsepower (11 to 101 kW) suitable for hulls up to 17 feet (5.2 m) in length to powerful V6 and V8 cylinder blocks rated up to 627 hp (468 kW)., [2] with sufficient power to be used on boats of 37 feet (11 m) or longer.
