Enclosures can be pressurized with clean air or inert gas, displacing any hazardous substance. Arc-producing elements can be isolated from the atmosphere, by encapsulation in resin, immersion in oil, or similar. Heat-producing elements can be designed to limit their maximum temperature below the autoignition temperature of the material involved.
Compressed air dryer. Compressed air dryers are special types of filter systems that are specifically designed to remove the water that is inherent in compressed air. The compression of air raises its temperature and concentrates atmospheric contaminants, primarily water vapor, as resulting in air with elevated temperature and 100% relative ...
The T-54 and T-55 tanks are a series of Soviet main battle tanks introduced in the years following the Second World War. The first T-54 prototype was completed at Nizhny Tagil by the end of 1945. [3] From the late 1950s, the T-54 eventually became the main tank for armoured units of the Soviet Army, armies of the Warsaw Pact countries, and many ...
A fire alarm notification appliance is an active fire protection component of a fire alarm system. A notification appliance may use audible, visible, or other stimuli to alert the occupants of a fire or other emergency condition requiring action. Audible appliances have been in use longer than any other method of notification.
The T-14 Armata (Russian: Т-14 «Армата»; industrial designation Russian: Объект 148, romanized : Obyekt 148, lit. 'Object 148') is a Russian main battle tank (MBT) based on the Armata Universal Combat Platform . The Russian Army initially planned to acquire 2,300 T-14s between 2015 and 2020. [13] [14] [15] By 2018, production and ...
Vapour-compression refrigeration or vapor-compression refrigeration system ( VCRS ), [1] in which the refrigerant undergoes phase changes, is one of the many refrigeration cycles and is the most widely used method for air conditioning of buildings and automobiles. It is also used in domestic and commercial refrigerators, large-scale warehouses ...
Originally this was considered to be impossible. For some time it looked as if it would be impossible to cool below the lambda point of 4 He (2.17 K), but the low-temperature group of the Eindhoven University of Technology managed to cool to a temperature of 1.73 K by replacing the usual 4 He as refrigerant by its rare isotope 3 He.
An absorption refrigerator is a refrigerator that uses a heat source to provide the energy needed to drive the cooling process. Solar energy, burning a fossil fuel, waste heat from factories, and district heating systems are examples of convenient heat sources that can be used. An absorption refrigerator uses two coolants: the first coolant ...
