  2. Heated air inlet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heated_air_inlet

    These vehicles have a MAF sensor, Air Temperature sensor, and when equipped with the 2.3L 4-cylinder, two spark-plugs per cylinder. This combination ensures the air is just warm enough to vaporize the droplets and does very noticeably improve performance and emissions at the same time in cold, northern winter weather.

  3. Maps of manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maps_of_manifolds

    Just as there are various types of manifolds, there are various types of maps of manifolds. PDIFF serves to relate DIFF and PL, and it is equivalent to PL.. In geometric topology, the basic types of maps correspond to various categories of manifolds: DIFF for smooth functions between differentiable manifolds, PL for piecewise linear functions between piecewise linear manifolds, and TOP for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffeology

    Recall that a topological manifold is a topological space which is locally homeomorphic to . Differentiable manifolds (also called smooth manifolds) generalize the notion of smoothness on in the following sense: a differentiable manifold is a topological manifold with a differentiable atlas, i.e. a collection of maps from open subsets of to the manifold which are used to "pull back" the ...

  5. Manifold (fluid mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_(fluid_mechanics)

    Types of manifolds in engineering include: Exhaust manifold An engine part that collects the exhaust gases from multiple cylinders into one pipe. Also known as headers. Hydraulic manifold A component used to regulate fluid flow in a hydraulic system, thus controlling the transfer of power between actuators and pumps Inlet manifold (or "intake ...

  7. Local diffeomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_diffeomorphism

    A map is a local diffeomorphism if and only if it is a smooth immersion (smooth local embedding) and an open map.. The inverse function theorem implies that a smooth map : is a local diffeomorphism if and only if the derivative: is a linear isomorphism for all points .

  8. Flow (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(mathematics)

    The flows of time-independent and time-dependent vector fields are defined on smooth manifolds exactly as they are defined on the Euclidean space ⁠ ⁠ and their local behavior is the same. However, the global topological structure of a smooth manifold is strongly manifest in what kind of global vector fields it can support, and flows of ...

  9. Inlet manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_manifold

    Carburetors used as intake runners A cutaway view of the intake of the original Fordson tractor (including the intake manifold, vaporizer, carburetor, and fuel lines). An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders. [1]
