  2. Induction furnace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_furnace

    The advantage of the induction furnace is a clean, energy-efficient and well-controlled melting process, compared to most other means of metal melting. Most modern foundries use this type of furnace, and many iron foundries are replacing cupola furnaces with induction furnaces to melt cast iron, as the former emit much dust and other pollutants ...

  3. Induction shrink fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_shrink_fitting

    Induction heating is a non contact heating process which uses the principle of electromagnetism induction to produce heat in a work-piece. In this case thermal expansion is used in a mechanical application to fit parts over one another, e.g. a bushing can be fitted over a shaft by making its inner diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the shaft, then heating it until it fits over the ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Electric arc furnace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_arc_furnace

    Depending on the proportions of steel scrap, DRI and pig iron used, electric arc furnace steelmaking can result in carbon dioxide emissions as low as 0.6 tons CO 2 per ton of steel produced, [12] which is significantly lower than the conventional production route via blast furnaces and the basic oxygen furnace, which produces 2.9 tons CO2 per ...

  6. Induction cooking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_cooking

    Top view of an induction cooktop. Induction cooking is a cooking process using direct electrical induction heating of cooking vessels, rather than relying on indirect radiation, convection, or thermal conduction. Induction cooking allows high power and very rapid increases in temperature to be achieved: changes in heat settings are ...

  7. Inland Steel Company - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inland_Steel_Company

    Inland Steel's main office building in East Chicago, Indiana, completed in 1930, was designed by Graham, Anderson, Probst & White [2] Inland Steel was founded in 1893 through the purchase of a small failed Chicago Heights steel mill, Chicago Steel Works. After its closing, the machinery was bought by Ross Buckingham.

  8. Hood scoop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hood_scoop

    Functional hood scoop on a Subaru Impreza WRX. A hood scoop (North American English) or bonnet scoop (Commonwealth English), sometimes called bonnet airdam and air dam, is an upraised component on the hood of a motor vehicle that either allows air to directly enter the engine compartment or appears to do so.

  9. Forced induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_induction

    At 18,000 feet (5,500 m), the air is at half the pressure of sea level, which means that an engine without forced induction would produce less than half the power at this altitude. [5] Forced induction is used to artificially increase the density of the intake air, in order to reduce the loss of power at higher altitudes.
