  2. Linear compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_compressor

    The suspension spring can be flexure type or coil type. An oil-free valved linear compressor enables the design of compact heat exchangers. [1] Linear compressors work similarly to a solenoid: by using a spring-loaded piston with an electromagnet connected to AC through a diode. The spring-loaded piston is the only moving part, and it is placed ...

  3. Compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor

    The rise in air and temperature ratio means compression does not follow a simple pressure to volume ratio. This is less efficient, but quick. Adiabatic compression or expansion more closely model real life when a compressor has good insulation, a large gas volume, or a short time scale (i.e., a high power level).

  4. Gain compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gain_compression

    Gain compression is the difference between the ideal linear power transfer curve and the real circuit's power transfer curve. An important gain compression parameter is the OP1dB, which is the power input that results in a 1 dB compression of the output power (OP), corresponding to a gain ratio of 10-1 ⁄ 10 = 79.4%.

  5. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

    A pre-curved or arc-shaped helical compression spring, which is able to transmit a torque around an axis. Volute spring A compression coil spring in the form of a cone so that under compression the coils are not forced against each other, thus permitting longer travel. Balance spring Also known as a hairspring.

  6. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    One such complicating feature is the relation between the viscosity model for a pure fluid and the model for a fluid mixture which is called mixing rules. When scientists and engineers use new arguments or theories to develop a new viscosity model, instead of improving the reigning model, it may lead to the first model in a new class of models.

  7. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    For an ideal gas, the molar heat capacity is at most a function of temperature, since the internal energy is solely a function of temperature for a closed system, i.e., = (,), where n is the amount of substance in moles.

  8. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    Illustration of uniform compression. The bulk modulus (or or ) of a substance is a measure of the resistance of a substance to bulk compression.It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume.

  9. Compression point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_point

    For example, the 1-dB compression point (sometimes notated as P1dB [1] [2]) is the output power of the amplifier (for the signal of interest) at which it differs from an ideal linear amplifier by more than 1 dB. So a larger 1-dB compression point means that the amplifier can produce larger outputs (for the same amount of distortion). [3]
