  2. M274 ½-ton 4×4 utility platform truck - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M274_½-ton_4×4_utility...

    All Mules except the A5 variants had four-wheel steering. Only the A5 variants had electric ignition as standard. They had no suspension aside from the low-pressure tires and the seat cushions. The lower speeds and high power (14 hp or 10 kW) [2] of the Mule made it a versatile off-road vehicle. It could climb over logs, go up steep slopes, and ...

  3. Thermo-magnetic motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermo-magnetic_motor

    These systems operate in a magnetic Brayton cycle, in a reverse way of the magnetocaloric refrigerators. [8] Experiments have produced only extremely inefficient working prototypes, [ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] however, thermodynamic analysis indicate that thermomagnetic motors present high efficiency related to Carnot efficiency for small temperature ...

  4. Hydraulic analogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_analogy

    In this case, electric potential is equivalent to pressure. The voltage (or voltage drop or potential difference) is a difference in pressure between two points. Electric potential is usually measured in volts. Electric current is equivalent to a hydraulic volume flow rate; that is, the

  5. Motor controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_controller

    A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. [1] A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor, selecting forward or reverse rotation, selecting and regulating the speed, regulating or limiting the torque, and protecting against overloads and electrical ...

  6. Electro-hydraulic actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro-hydraulic_actuator

    Here, small valves were attached to the original control cables, controlling the flow of oil into an associated actuator connected to the control surface. One of the earliest fittings of a hydraulic boost system was to ailerons on late-war models of the P-38L, removing the need for great human strength to achieve a higher rate of roll. [2]

  7. Actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuator

    The control signal is relatively low in energy and may be voltage, electric current, pneumatic, or hydraulic fluid pressure, or even human power [clarification needed]. [3] In the electric, hydraulic, and pneumatic sense, it is a form of automation or automatic control .

  8. Thermal hydraulics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_hydraulics

    Thermal hydraulics (also called thermohydraulics) is the study of hydraulic flow in thermal fluids. The area can be mainly divided into three parts: thermodynamics , fluid mechanics , and heat transfer , but they are often closely linked to each other.

  9. Magnetohydrodynamic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamic_generator

    Diagram of a Hall MHD generator showing current flows. The typical solution has been to use the Hall effect to create a current that flows with the fluid. (See illustration.) This design has arrays of short, segmented electrodes on the sides of the duct. The first and last electrodes in the duct power the load.
