    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_gun

    Example of hand held electric heat gun Commercial heat gun kit Flame heat gun for shrinkwrapping helicopter. A heat gun is a device used to emit a stream of hot air, usually at temperatures between 100 and 550 °C (373 and 823 K; 212 and 1,022 °F), with some hotter models running around 760 °C (1,030 K; 1,400 °F), which can be held by hand.

  3. Electrolaser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolaser

    An electrolaser is a type of electroshock weapon that is also a directed-energy weapon.It uses lasers to form an electrically conductive laser-induced plasma channel (LIPC). A fraction of a second later, a powerful electric current is sent down this plasma channel and delivered to the target, thus functioning overall as a large-scale, high energy, long-distance version of the Taser ...

  4. Electric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

    An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current into heat. [1] The heating element inside every electric heater is an electrical resistor , and works on the principle of Joule heating : an electric current passing through a resistor will convert that electrical energy into heat energy.

    Electron gun from an oscilloscope CRT Setup of an electron gun. 1. Hot cathode.2. Wehnelt cylinder.3. Anode. A direct current, electrostatic thermionic electron gun is formed from several parts: a hot cathode, which is heated to create a stream of electrons via thermionic emission; electrodes generating an electric field to focus the electron beam (such as a Wehnelt cylinder); and one or more ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M61_Vulcan

    The M61 Vulcan is a hydraulically, electrically, or pneumatically driven, six-barrel, air-cooled, electrically fired Gatling-style rotary cannon which fires 20 mm × 102 mm (0.787 in × 4.016 in) rounds at an extremely high rate (typically 6,000 rounds per minute).

  7. High-explosive anti-tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-explosive_anti-tank

    With the effectiveness of gun-fired single charge HEAT rounds being lessened, or even negated by increasingly sophisticated armoring techniques, a class of HEAT rounds termed high-explosive anti-tank multi-purpose, or HEAT-MP, has become more popular. These are HEAT rounds that are effective against older tanks and light armored vehicles but ...

  9. Trace heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_heating

    Electric heat tracing, heat tape or surface heating, is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels using heat tracing cables. Trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of a pipe.
