The firing order of an internal combustion engine is the sequence of ignition for the cylinders. In a spark ignition (e.g. gasoline/petrol) engine, the firing order corresponds to the order in which the spark plugs are operated. In a diesel engine, the firing order corresponds to the order in which fuel is injected into each cylinder.
The straight-five engine (also referred to as an inline-five engine; abbreviated I5 or L5) is a piston engine with five cylinders mounted in a straight line along the crankshaft . Although less common than straight-four engines and straight-six engines, straight-five engine designs have been used by automobile manufacturers since the late 1930s ...
Most public kindergartens in urban areas offer parents three types of programs, in order to better suit the parents' schedules – a short schedule (typically 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., with one snack or meal), a medium schedule (typically 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., with one snack and one meal) and a long schedule (typically 8 a.m. to 5–6 p.m., with three ...
An early example is the 3.3 L (200 cu in) and 3.8 L (229 cu in) Chevrolet 90° V6 engines, which have an 18° offset crankshaft resulting in an uneven firing interval. Newer examples, such as the Honda C engine, use 30° offset crank pins, resulting in an even firing interval. As per V6 engines with 60° V angles, these engines have primary ...
In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-8-3 triangular honeycomb (or 3,8,5 honeycomb) is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) with Schläfli symbol {3,8,5}. It has five order-8 triangular tiling, {3,8}, around each edge. All vertices are ultra-ideal (existing beyond the ideal boundary) with infinitely many order-8 ...
In Christianity, minor orders are ranks of church ministry. [ 1] In the Catholic Church, the predominating Latin Church formerly distinguished between the major orders — priest (including bishop ), deacon and subdeacon —and four minor orders— acolyte, exorcist, lector, and porter (in descending order of seniority).
