  2. Thermal barrier coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_barrier_coating

    Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are advanced materials systems usually applied to metallic surfaces on parts operating at elevated temperatures, such as gas turbine combustors and turbines, and in automotive exhaust heat management. These 100 μm to 2 mm thick coatings of thermally insulating materials serve to insulate components from large ...

  3. 4-tert-Butylcatechol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-tert-Butylcatechol

    Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). ?) 4-tert-Butylcatechol (TBC) is an organic chemical compound which is a derivative of catechol. [1] TBC is available in the form of a solid crystal flake [2] and 85% solution in methanol [3] or water.

The Engineer's Ring is a ring worn by members of the Order of the Engineer, a fellowship of engineers who must be a certified Professional Engineer or graduated from an accredited engineering program (or be within one academic year of graduation to ...

  5. Superalloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superalloy

    A superalloy, or high-performance alloy, is an alloy with the ability to operate at a high fraction of its melting point. [ 1 ] Key characteristics of a superalloy include mechanical strength, thermal creep deformation resistance, surface stability, and corrosion and oxidation resistance. The crystal structure is typically face-centered cubic ...

  6. Bridgman seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridgman_seal

    The topmost cylinder is the drive piston; it has an external force applied to it to pressurize the vessel.The six squares are cross-sections through three rings; the topmost (dark gray) one is a hard material, the middle one a softer one, and the bottom one a much softer one. Bridgman originally used hard steel, softer steel, and rubber.

  7. List of guitar tunings - Wikipedia

    The same as drop A tuning for a 6-string on the low strings while retaining a high E. In effect converts a 7-string into a drop A baritone guitar, but with standard tuning's soloing capability. Used by Lorna Shore, Volumes, and Whitechapel on the song "This Is Exile".

  8. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

    Rolling-element bearing. A sealed deep groove ball bearing. In mechanical engineering, a rolling-element bearing, also known as a rolling bearing, [ 1 ] is a bearing which carries a load by placing rolling elements (such as balls or rollers) between two concentric, grooved rings called races. The relative motion of the races causes the rolling ...

  9. Ring gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_gauge

    A ring gauge, or ring gage, is a cylindrical ring of a thermally stable material, often steel, whose inside diameter is finished to gauge tolerance and is used for checking the external diameter of a cylindrical object. [1] Ring gauges are used for comparative gauging as well as for checking, calibrating, or setting of gauges or other standards.
