    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_generator

    A 200 kW Caterpillar diesel generator set in a sound attenuated enclosure used as an emergency backup at a sewage treatment substation in Atlanta, United States. A diesel generator (DG) (also known as a diesel GenSet) is the combination of a diesel engine with an electric generator (often an alternator) to generate electrical energy. [1]

  4. Nooter/Eriksen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nooter/Eriksen

    In the 1990s the market for heat-recovery steam generators for combined cycle gas turbines started. The company reached its peak for orders (c. 18,000 MW of plant) in 2001. [ 2 ] Nooter/Eriksen is a subsidiary of employee-owned holding company CIC, which has investments in several different industrial and manufacturing businesses.

  5. Automatic generation control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_generation_control

    An electrical grid may have many types of generators and loads; generators must be controlled to maintain stable operation of the system. In an electric power system, automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load. Since a power ...

    6.2L fitted to a 1987 HMMWV. The original 6.2 L (379 cu in) diesel V8 was introduced in 1982 for the Chevrolet C/K and was produced until 1993. The 6.2L diesel emerged as a high-fuel-economy alternative to the V8 gasoline engine lineup, and achieved better mileage than Chevrolet's 4.3L V6 gasoline engine of the 1980s, at a time when the market was focused on power rather than efficiency.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ericsson_cycle

    Ideal Ericsson cycle. The following is a list of the four processes that occur between the four stages of the ideal Ericsson cycle: Process 1 -> 2: Isothermal compression. . The compression space is assumed to be intercooled, so the gas undergoes isothermal compres

  9. Tieback (geotechnical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tieback_(geotechnical)

    Upon installation, tiebacks are tested and usually pre-loaded. In specific, a combination of proof tests and performance tests are performed on every job. Proof testing involves the application of successively larger loads on the tieback with a loading jack, allowing for the recording of a load-elongation curve according to gauge readings.
