  2. Feed conversion ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed_conversion_ratio

    For hens used in egg production in the US, as of 2011 the FCR was about 2, with each hen laying about 330 eggs per year. [25] When slaughtered, the world average layer flock as of 2013 yields a carcass FCR of 4.2, still much better than the average backyard chicken flock (FCR 9.2 for eggs, 14.6 for carcass).

  3. Meat thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meat_thermometer

    A meat thermometer or cooking thermometer is a thermometer used to measure the internal temperature of meat, especially roasts and steaks, and other cooked foods. The degree of "doneness" of meat or bread correlates closely with the internal temperature, so that a thermometer reading indicates when it is cooked as desired.

  4. Repeater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeater

    The digital repeater is used in channels that transmit data by binary digital signals, in which the data is in the form of pulses with only two possible values, representing the binary digits 1 and 0. A digital repeater amplifies the signal, and it also may retime, resynchronize, and reshape the pulses.

  5. Repeat loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeat_loop

    Repeat loop may refer to: For loop – Commonly known as the repeat (x) { ... } loop. Do while loop – Known as the repeat { ... } until (!CONDITION) loop.

  6. ADSL loop extender - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADSL_loop_extender

    ADSL repeaters are deployed by rural telephone companies trying to provide rural Internet service to farms and small towns where it is impractical to place the DSLAM closer to the subscriber. Typical distance improvements with a loop extender are shown in the diagram below, with rate in megabits per second and distance in thousands of feet. [1]

  7. Incubator (egg) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incubator_(egg)

    An incubator is a device simulating avian incubation by keeping eggs warm at a particular temperature range and in the correct humidity with a turning mechanism to hatch them. The common names of the incubator in other terms include breeding / hatching machines or hatchers , setters , and egg breeding / equipment .

  8. Comptometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comptometer

    The Comptometer was the first commercially successful key-driven mechanical calculator, patented in the United States by Dorr Felt in 1887.. A key-driven calculator is extremely fast because each key adds or subtracts its value to the accumulator as soon as it is pressed and a skilled operator can enter all of the digits of a number simultaneously, using as many fingers as required, making ...

  9. Electrothermal feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrothermal_feedback

    The decrease in Joule heating will cause the device to return to its equilibrium temperature. This is known as negative electrothermal feedback, as the change in Joule heating opposes the change in temperature. If the device is instead biased with a constant current I, the Joule power P = I 2 R will increase if the temperature increases. Thus ...
