2. Block heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_heater

   Electrical cord for powering a block heater. A block heater is used in cold climates to warm an engine prior to starting. They are mostly used for car engines; however, they have also been used in aircraft engines. The most common design of block heater is an electrical heating element embedded in the engine block.

It operates a chain of retail stores, as well as an e-commerce business. The company employs over 28,000 people in the United States, [5] and has over 1,500 locations in 48 states. [6] [7]

4. Magnetic starter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_starter

   A magnetic starter has a contactor and an overload relay, which will open the control voltage to the starter coil if it detects an overload on a motor. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The overload relay opens a set of contacts that are wired in series with the supply to the contactor feeding the motor.

6. Magnetohydrodynamic generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamic_generator

   This design currently holds the efficiency and energy density records for MHD generation. A disc generator has fluid flowing between the center of a disc, and a duct wrapped around the edge. (The ducts are not shown.) The magnetic excitation field is made by a pair of circular Helmholtz coils above and below the disk. (The coils are not shown.)

7. Magnetic switchable device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_switchable_device

   A magnetic switchable device (often called a magnetic base) is a magnetic fixture that uses one or more permanent magnets in a configuration that allows the external field to be turned on or off. They are used in many applications including optics , metalworking , lifting , and robotics, to attach items to metal surfaces in a secure but ...

8. Induction heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_heating

   Component of Stirling radioisotope generator is heated by induction during testing. Induction heating is the process of heating electrically conductive materials, namely metals or semi-conductors, by electromagnetic induction, through heat transfer passing through an inductor that creates an electromagnetic field within the coil to heat up and possibly melt steel, copper, brass, graphite, gold ...

9. Magnetic core - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_core

   A magnetic core is a piece of magnetic material with a high magnetic permeability used to confine and guide magnetic fields in electrical, electromechanical and magnetic devices such as electromagnets, transformers, electric motors, generators, inductors, loudspeakers, magnetic recording heads, and magnetic assemblies.
