  2. Lopi (knitting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lopi_(knitting)

    Lopi (Icelandic:) is knitting wool made from the fleece of Icelandic sheep. The fleece is made up of two layers, each with a different kind of wool. The wet-resistant outer coat contains long, coarse fibres, while the insulating layer beneath consists of soft, short fibres. [1] These are processed together to create lopi roving and yarn.

  3. Turbine blade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_blade

    The turbine blades have a golden colour in this engine cutaway. A turbine blade is a radial aerofoil mounted in the rim of a turbine disc and which produces a tangential force which rotates a turbine rotor. [2] Each turbine disc has many blades. [3] As such they are used in gas turbine engines and steam turbines.

  4. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

    An axial fan is a type of fan that causes gas to flow through it in an axial direction, parallel to the shaft about which the blades rotate. The flow is axial at entry and exit. The flow is axial at entry and exit.

  5. Rotary snowplow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_snowplow

    An engine within the plow's carbody rotates the large circular assembly at the front of the plow. The blades on this wheel cut through the snow and force it through a channel just behind the disk to an output chute above the blade assembly. The chute can be adjusted to throw the snow to either the left or the right side of the tracks.

  7. Blade element theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_element_theory

    Blade element theory (BET) is a mathematical process originally designed by William Froude (1878), [1] David W. Taylor (1893) and Stefan Drzewiecki (1885) to determine the behavior of propellers. It involves breaking a blade down into several small parts then determining the forces on each of these small blade elements.

  8. Windscreen wiper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windscreen_wiper

    Pantograph wipers feature two arms for each blade, with the blade assembly itself supported on a horizontal bar connecting the two arms. One of the arms is attached to the motor, while the other is on an idle pivot. [citation needed] The pantograph mechanism, while being more complex, allows the blade to cover more of the windscreen on each ...
