The Synchro-mesh 465 or SM465 is a heavy-duty, four-speed manual transmission built by General Motors for use in light and medium duty trucks from 1968 to 1991 at the factory in Muncie, Indiana; it was designed to replace the somewhat similar Muncie SM420 transmission, which had been in production since just after World War II.
Muncie SM420 transmission — 4-speed manual used up to 1967, very similar to sm 465 except small changes to gear ratios and location of reverse. New Process Gear NP435 - 4-speed longitudinal transmission used in a select handful of 67-72 GM pickups
Returning mud "cut" by (i.e., contaminated by) gas, oil or water; Connection gases, high background gas units, and high bottoms-up gas units detected in the mudlogging unit. [22] The primary means of detecting a kick while drilling is a relative change in the circulation rate back up to the surface into the mud pits.
Expansion joints on a steam line that have been destroyed by steam hammer. Steam hammer can occur in steam systems when some of the steam condenses into water in a horizontal section of the piping. The steam forcing the liquid water along the pipe forms a "slug" which impacts a valve of pipe fitting, creating a loud hammering noise and high ...
The pressure on a pressure-temperature diagram (such as the water phase diagram shown above) is the partial pressure of the substance in question. A phase diagram in physical chemistry , engineering , mineralogy , and materials science is a type of chart used to show conditions (pressure, temperature, etc.) at which thermodynamically distinct ...
The sudden dispersion and projection of the water in the boiler against the bounding surfaces of the boiler is the great cause of the violence of the results: the dispersion, being caused by the momentary generation of steam throughout the mass of the water, and in its efforts to escape, it carries the water before it, and the combined momentum ...
Similar blowdown connections at the bottom of water wall headers are blown down less frequently. [4] Several short blowdown events remove sludge more effectively than a single continuous blowdown. Shorter blowdown events cause less significant changes in boiler water level, and are safer during periods of high steam demand.
For small work, a mouth-blown blowpipe may be used with a candle flame or an alcohol lamp, with established techniques for applying oxidizing and reducing flames to the workpiece or specimen. Starting in the late 18th Century, blowpipes have been powered by mechanisms, initially bladders and bellows, but now blowers, compressors and compressed ...
