  2. Head gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_gasket

    The cost of the replacement component (i.e. the head gasket itself) is usually relatively low, however there are significant labor costs involved in the replacement process. [6] This is because the process of removing and replacing the cylinder head is a time-consuming task.

  3. Forced induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_induction

    Forced induction is often used to increase the power output of an engine. [2] This is achieved by compressing the intake air, to increase the mass of the air-fuel mixture present within the combustion chamber.

  4. Pump inducer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_inducer

    An inducer is the axial inlet portion of a centrifugal pump rotor, the function of which is to raise the inlet head by an amount sufficient to prevent significant cavitation in the following pump stage. [1]

    Federal-Mogul Corporation is an American developer, manufacturer, and supplier of products for automotive, commercial, aerospace, marine, rail, and off-road vehicles, as well as industrial, agricultural, and power-generation applications.

  6. Induction heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_heater

    Induction heating is a non contact method of heating a conductive body by utilising a strong magnetic field.Supply (mains) frequency 50 Hz or 60 Hz induction heaters incorporate a coil directly fed from the electricity supply, typically for lower power industrial applications where lower surface temperatures are required.

  7. Internal combustion engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine

    Later, in 1886, Benz began the first commercial production of motor vehicles with an internal combustion engine, in which a three-wheeled, four-cycle engine and chassis formed a single unit. [14] In 1892, Rudolf Diesel developed the first compressed charge, compression ignition engine. In 1926, Robert Goddard launched the first liquid-fueled ...

  8. Induction regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_regulator

    The three phase induction regulator can be regarded as a wound induction motor. The rotor is not allowed to turn freely and it can be mechanically shifted by means of a worm gear. The rest of the regulator's construction follows that of a wound rotor induction motor with a slotted three-phase stator and a wound three-phase rotor. Since the ...

  9. Induced gas flotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induced_gas_flotation

    Induced gas flotation (IGF) is a water treatment process that clarifies wastewater (or other waters) by removing suspended matter such as oil or solids. The removal is achieved by injecting gas bubbles into the water or wastewater in a flotation tank or basin.
