  2. Heat gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_gun

    Example of hand held electric heat gun Commercial heat gun kit Flame heat gun for shrinkwrapping helicopter. A heat gun is a device used to emit a stream of hot air, usually at temperatures between 100 and 550 °C (373 and 823 K; 212 and 1,022 °F), with some hotter models running around 760 °C (1,030 K; 1,400 °F), which can be held by hand.

  3. Active Denial System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Denial_System

    The ADS works by firing a high-powered (100 kW output power) [13] beam of 95 GHz waves at a target, which corresponds to a wavelength of 3.2 mm. [14] The ADS millimeter wave energy works on a principle similar to a microwave oven, exciting the water and fat molecules in the skin, and instantly heating them via dielectric heating.

  4. Blowtorch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowtorch

    The blowtorch is commonly used where a diffuse (wide spread) high temperature naked flame heat is required but not so hot as to cause combustion or welding. Temperature applications are soldering , brazing , softening paint for removal, melting roof tar , or pre-heating large castings before welding such as for repairing.

  5. Heat sink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_sink

    The heat sink thermal resistance model consists of two resistances, namely the resistance in the heat sink base, , and the resistance in the fins, . The heat sink base thermal resistance, , can be written as follows if the source is a uniformly applied the heat sink base. If it is not, then the base resistance is primarily spreading resistance:

  6. Electrothermal-chemical technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrothermal-chemical...

    The XM291 also mounts a larger gun tube and a larger ignition chamber than the existing M256 L/44 main gun. [16] Through the application of electrothermal-chemical technology the XM291 has been able to achieve muzzle energy outputs that equate that to a low-level 140 mm gun, while achieving muzzle velocities greater than those of the larger 140 ...

  7. Soldering iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering_iron

    It supplies heat to melt solder so that it can flow into the joint between two workpieces. A soldering iron is composed of a heated metal tip (the bit) and an insulated handle. Heating is often achieved electrically, by passing an electric current (supplied through an electrical cord or battery cables) through a resistive heating element.

  8. Early thermal weapons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_thermal_weapons

    The Siege and Destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans Under the Command of Titus, A.D. 70, by David Roberts (1850), shows the city burning. Early thermal weapons, which used heat or burning action to destroy or damage enemy personnel, fortifications or territories, were employed in warfare during the classical and medieval periods (approximately the 8th century BC until the mid-16th century AD).
