2. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

   The rotary solenoid is an electromechanical device used to rotate a ratcheting mechanism when power is applied. These were used in the 1950s for rotary snap-switch automation in electromechanical controls. Repeated actuation of the rotary solenoid advances the snap-switch forward one position.

3. Starter (engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_(engine)

   An automobile starter motor (larger cylinder). The smaller object on top is a starter solenoid which controls power to the starter motor and engages the Bendix drive.. A starter (also self-starter, cranking motor, or starter motor) is a device used to rotate (crank) an internal-combustion engine so as to initiate the engine's operation under its own power.

4. Solenoid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid

   A finite solenoid is a solenoid with finite length. Continuous means that the solenoid is not formed by discrete coils but by a sheet of conductive material. We assume the current is uniformly distributed on the surface of the solenoid, with a surface current density K ; in cylindrical coordinates : K → = I l ϕ ^ . {\displaystyle {\vec {K ...

6. Starter solenoid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_solenoid

   The starter motor is a series, compound, or permanent magnet type electric motor with a solenoid and solenoid operated switch mounted on it. When low-current power from the starting battery is applied to the starter solenoid, usually through a key-operated switch, the solenoid closes high-current contacts for the starter motor and it starts to ...

7. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

   Solenoid valves. A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated valve.. Solenoid valves differ in the characteristics of the electric current they use, the strength of the magnetic field they generate, the mechanism they use to regulate the fluid, and the type and characteristics of fluid they control.

8. Camless piston engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camless_piston_engine

   Solenoid valves are used to control valve activation that is electronically operated. These are used for controlling liquid or gas flow and are most commonly used in fluidics as control elements. They are multifunctional in a way to release, shut off, mix, or distribute fluids with high reliability and fast processing.

9. Glow plug - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_plug

   When the engine's surroundings are cold, the air's thermal energy – that it has previously received from the starter motor's compression work – is absorbed by the cylinder head and engine block, and eventually transferred to the air surrounding the engine. When the temperature of the air surrounding the engine comes below a certain value ...
