  2. Einstein refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_refrigerator

    The Einstein–Szilard or Einstein refrigerator is an absorption refrigerator which has no moving parts, operates at constant pressure, and requires only a heat source to operate. It was jointly invented in 1926 by Albert Einstein and his former student Leó Szilárd , who patented it in the U.S. on November 11, 1930 ( U.S. patent 1,781,541 ).

  3. Refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator

    A refrigerator maintains a temperature a few degrees above the freezing point of water. The optimal temperature range for perishable food storage is 3 to 5 °C (37 to 41 °F). [3] A freezer is a specialized refrigerator, or portion of a refrigerator, that maintains its contents’ temperature below the freezing point of water. [4]

  4. Reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reluctance_motor

    The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a type of reluctance motor. Unlike brushed DC motors , power is delivered to windings in the stator (case) rather than the rotor . This simplifies mechanical design because power does not have to be delivered to the moving rotor, which eliminates the need for a commutator .

  5. Absorption refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_refrigerator

    Common absorption refrigerators use a refrigerant with a very low boiling point (less than −18 °C (0 °F)) just like compressor refrigerators.Compression refrigerators typically use an HCFC or HFC, while absorption refrigerators typically use ammonia or water and need at least a second fluid able to absorb the coolant, the absorbent, respectively water (for ammonia) or brine (for water).

  6. Universal motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_motor

    The universal motor is a type of electric motor that can operate on either AC or DC power and uses an electromagnet as its stator to create its magnetic field. [1] It is a commutated series-wound motor where the stator's field coils are connected in series with the rotor windings through a commutator. It is often referred to as an AC series motor.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_90°_V6_engine

    The Chevrolet 90° V6 family of V6 engines began in 1978 with the Chevrolet 200 cu in (3.3 L) as the base engine for the all new 1978 Chevrolet Malibu. The original engine family was phased out in early 2014, with its final use as the 4.3 L (262 cu in) V6 engine used in Chevrolet and GMC trucks and vans.

  8. Thermoacoustic heat engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoacoustic_heat_engine

    A counter-clockwise Brayton cycle for a refrigerator consists of four processes that affect a parcel of gas between two plates of a stack. Adiabatic compression of the gas. When a parcel of gas is displaced from its rightmost position to its leftmost position, the parcel is adiabatically compressed, increasing its temperature.

  9. Repulsion motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repulsion_motor

    The motor has a stator and a rotor but there is no electrical connection between the two and the rotor current is generated by induction.The rotor winding is connected to a commutator which is in contact with a short-circuited pair of brushes which can be moved to change their angular position relative to an imaginary line drawn through the axis of the stator.
