  2. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    The flow in manifolds is extensively encountered in many industrial processes when it is necessary to distribute a large fluid stream into several parallel streams, or to collect them into one discharge stream, such as in fuel cells, heat exchangers, radial flow reactors, hydronics, fire protection, and irrigation. Manifolds can usually be ...

  3. Erlang (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erlang_(unit)

    m is the number of identical parallel resources such as servers, telephone lines, etc. E = λh is the normalised ingress load (offered traffic stated in erlang). Note: The erlang is a dimensionless load unit calculated as the mean arrival rate, λ , multiplied by the mean call holding time, h .

  4. NTU method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTU_Method

    The number of transfer units (NTU) method is used to calculate the rate of heat transfer in heat exchangers (especially parallel flow, counter current, and cross-flow exchangers) when there is insufficient information to calculate the log mean temperature difference (LMTD). Alternatively, this method is useful for determining the expected heat ...

  5. Thermodynamic pump testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_pump_testing

    Thermodynamic pump testing is a form of pump testing where only the temperature rise, power consumed, and differential pressure need to be measured to find the efficiency of a pump. These measurements are typically made with insertion temperature probes and pressure probes fitted to tapping points on the pump's inlet and outlet. [ 1 ]

  6. Mean time between failures - Wikipedia

    where B 10 is the number of operations that a device will operate prior to 10% of a sample of those devices would fail and n op is number of operations. B 10d is the same calculation, but where 10% of the sample would fail to danger. n op is the number of operations/cycle in one year. [11]

  7. Excel mobile phones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excel_mobile_phones

    The M1 (PC105T) turned the hand-portable phone into the world's first pocket-sized cell phone. [3] The phone cost around £2500 when first launched and some owners were Terence Trent Darby, David Steel, Joan Collins and Jonathon Morris from the popular Liverpool-based TV show Bread. The Excell phone range were also featured in the TV show owned ...

  8. Parallel computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_computing

    Parallel computing is a type of computation in which many calculations or processes are carried out simultaneously. [1] Large problems can often be divided into smaller ones, which can then be solved at the same time. There are several different forms of parallel computing: bit-level, instruction-level, data, and task parallelism.

  9. Axial piston pump - Wikipedia

    Cutaway side-view diagram of an axial piston pump 3-D rendering of an axial piston pump with the parts labeled Animation of an axial piston pump in operation. An axial piston pump has a number of pistons (usually an odd number) arranged in a circular array within a housing which is commonly referred to as a cylinder block, rotor or barrel.
