2. Booster pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booster_pump

   Haskell booster set up for charging rebreather cylinders from premix banks with low pressure compressor. A booster pump is a machine which increases the pressure of a fluid. It may be used with liquids or gases, and the construction details vary depending on the fluid. A gas booster is similar to a gas compressor, but generally a simpler ...

3. FreeCAD - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeCAD

   FreeCAD's support for the proprietary DWG file format has been problematic due to software license compatibility problems with the GNU LibreDWG library. The GNU LibreDWG library started as a real free alternative to the source-available OpenDWG library (later Teigha Converter and now ODA File Converter) and is licensed under the GPLv3.

4. Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle_Solid_Rocket...

   242 seconds (2.37 km/s) Burn time. 123 s. Propellant. PBAN - APCP. The Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) was the first solid-propellant rocket to be used for primary propulsion on a vehicle used for human spaceflight. [1] A pair of these provided 85% of the Space Shuttle 's thrust at liftoff and for the first two minutes of ascent.

5. Volute (pump) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volute_(pump)

   Volute (pump) A volute is a curved funnel that increases in area as it approaches the discharge port. [1] The volute of a centrifugal pump is the casing that receives the fluid being pumped by the impeller, maintaining the velocity of the fluid through to the diffuser. As liquid exits the impeller it has high kinetic energy and the volute ...

6. Piping and instrumentation diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_instrumentation...

   A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process. In the process industry, a standard set of symbols is used to prepare drawings of processes. The instrument symbols used in these drawings are generally based on ...

7. Rutherford (rocket engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutherford_(rocket_engine)

   Rutherford is named after renowned New Zealand-born scientist Ernest Rutherford. It is a small liquid-propellant rocket engine designed to be simple and cheap to produce. It is used as both a first-stage and a second-stage engine, which simplifies logistics and improves economies of scale. [5][6] To reduce its cost, it uses the electric-pump ...

8. Rocket Lab Electron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Lab_Electron

   Its Rutherford engines are the first electric-pump-fed engine to power an orbital-class rocket. [17] Electron is often flown with a kickstage or Rocket Lab's Photon spacecraft. Although the rocket was designed to be expendable, Rocket Lab has recovered the first stage twice and is working towards the capability of reusing the booster. [18]

9. Condensate pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensate_pump

   In industrial steam systems the condensate pump is used to collect and return condensate from remote areas of the plant. The steam produced in the boiler can heat equipment and processes a considerable distance away. Once steam is used it turns to hot water or condensate. This pump and possibly many more around the plant returns this hot water ...
