2. Nickel aluminide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_aluminide

   Nickel aluminide refers to either of two widely used intermetallic compounds, Ni 3 Al or NiAl, but the term is sometimes used to refer to any nickel–aluminium alloy. These alloys are widely used because of their high strength even at high temperature, low density, corrosion resistance, and ease of production. [ 1 ]

3. Fuel pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_pump

   By submerging the pump in fuel at the bottom of the tank, the pump is cooled by the surrounding fuel; Liquid fuel by itself (i.e. without oxygen present) isn't flammable, therefore surrounding the fuel pump by fuel reduces the risk of fire; In-tank fuel pumps are often part of an assembly consisting of the fuel pump, fuel strainer and fuel ...

4. Gasoline pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_pump

   A gasoline pump or fuel dispenser is a machine at a filling station that is used to pump gasoline (petrol), diesel, or other types of liquid fuel into vehicles. Gasoline pumps are also known as bowsers or petrol bowsers (in Australia and South Africa ), [ 2 ] [ 3 ] petrol pumps (in Commonwealth countries), or gas pumps (in North America ).

5. Skid unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid_Unit

   A Skid Unit (called a "Slip-on" in Australia) is the common name used to refer to a complete self-contained fire fighting apparatus designed for use on/in commercially available vehicle platforms. Vehicles such as pickup trucks , flat bed trucks, vans, off-road vehicles, trailers and others can easily be fitted with a proper size skid unit for ...

6. Fuel gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_gauge

   In most automotive fuel gauges such resistors are on the inward side of the gauge, i.e., inside the fuel tank. Sending current through such a resistor has a fire hazard and an explosion risk associated with it. These resistance sensors are also showing an increased failure rate with the incremental additions of alcohol in automotive gasoline ...

7. Aluminide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminide

   Aluminides are intermetallic compounds of aluminium. [1] Since aluminium is near the nonmetals on the periodic table, it can bond with metals differently than other metals. The properties of an aluminide are between those of a metal alloy and those of an ionic compound. Aluminides are used as bond coats in thermal barrier coating systems. [2]

8. Unit pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_pump

   The Unit Pump system [1] is a modular high-pressure diesel injection system, which is closely related to the unit Injector system, and is designed for use in commercial vehicle diesel engines. [ 2 ] The systems use an individual injection pump mounted on the engine block for each cylinder so it is primarily designed for OHV or "cam in the block ...
