    The initial shipment, in 1665, consisted of two stallions and twenty mares from the Royal Stables in Normandy and Brittany, the centre of French horse breeding.[7] Only 12 of the 20 mares survived the trip. Two more shipments followed, one in 1667 of 14 horses (mostly mares, but with at least one stallion), and one in 1670 of 11 mares and a ...

  3. Plate heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_heat_exchanger

    A plate heat exchanger is a type of heat exchanger that uses metal plates to transfer heat between two fluids. This has a major advantage over a conventional heat exchanger in that the fluids are exposed to a much larger surface area because the fluids are spread out over the plates.

  4. Stallion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stallion

    A stallion standing up. A stallion is a male horse that has not been gelded ().Stallions follow the conformation and phenotype of their breed, but within that standard, the presence of hormones such as testosterone may give stallions a thicker, "cresty" neck, as well as a somewhat more muscular physique as compared to female horses, known as mares, and castrated males, called geldings.

    Conceptual diagram of a plate and frame heat exchanger A single plate heat exchanger An interchangeable plate heat exchanger directly applied to the system of a swimming pool. Another type of heat exchanger is the plate heat exchanger. These exchangers are composed of many thin, slightly separated plates that have very large surface areas and ...

  7. Plate-fin heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate-fin_heat_exchanger

    A plate-fin heat exchanger is a type of heat exchanger design that uses plates and finned chambers to transfer heat between fluids, most commonly gases. It is often categorized as a compact heat exchanger to emphasize its relatively high heat transfer surface area to volume ratio.

  8. Thoroughbred breeding theories - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoroughbred_breeding_theories

    Specific affinities of stallions of one male line for mares from other sire lines — commonly called nicks — have made a profound impact on the development of the Thoroughbred. Compatibility of stallions from one male line with mares from other sire lines has shaped the breed since the cross of Eclipse with mares by Herod in the late 18th ...

    Though the mares he bred with were not of the highest quality, he sired a great many successful racehorses. [8] Messenger's daughter, Miller's Damsel, also known as "Queen of the American Turf", gave birth to the horse his breeder named American Eclipse in the belief the foal would be as great as the famous English Eclipse .
