The most attractive feature of the fuel cell technology is probably its superior energy efficiency as a part of a hydrogen-fuel cell-electro-motor power-train, that is, in the tank-to-wheel (TtW) part of the fuel chain. On the other hand, the energy loss in hydrogen production, that is, in the well-to-tank (WtT) part of the fuel chain, is considerable. The total well-to-wheel (WtW) efficiency is potentially superior to even advanced ICVs or hybrid solutions. [Pg.253]

Electromechanical Controls. Electro-mechanical control devices are typically used for load control (lighting, ventilation, and heating) in buildings with no feedback signal. The most common device is the electromechanical timer, in which a small motor coupled to a gearbox is able to switch electrical contacts according to a predefined time schedule. They are still in use today, applied to loads with simple scheduling requirements. [Pg.297]

In 1939 General Motor s Electro-Motive Division sent its famed demonstrator FT-103 diesel-electric units on a triumphant tour of America. One purpose was to show skeptical railroaders that this 5400 hp, four-unit diesel locomotive developed more low speed tractive effort than competitor steam engines, which meant smooth starts and excellent performance on long mountain grades. The effect was much like Trevithick s demonstrations 130 years earlier, and a new generation of railroad locomotive power was assured. [Pg.728]

A strong electro-magnetic field, such as that generated by large mill motors, accelerates cable oscillation. In these instances, the vibration generated by the cable will mask real machine vibration. [Pg.690]

The product of this process can be modified in many ways. It can be made impervious by impregnation or its pores may be filled with metal such as in motor and generator brushes. It must be appreciated that by choice of raw materials and processing it is possible to produce a wide range of carbons, c bon/graphites and electro-graphites. The physical properties shown in Table 18,1 are thus to be taken only as broadly representative. [Pg.864]

Sustained contraction of muscle fibers produces repetitive electrical potentials in them that increase in rapidity with strength of contraction and in number as more motor units take part. These potentials may be conducted from a coaxial needle electrode in the muscle, amplified, and their amplitude and frequency analyzed and recorded on a cathode-ray oscilloscope as the very typical full interference pattern of normal voluntary contraction. Characteristic departures from this normal electro-myogram are of very great importance in the diagnosis of muscle disease (B21a). [Pg.142]

Natural and synthetic iron oxides not possessing pigment properties are used as raw materials in the production of hard and soft ferrites (see Section 5.5.5.2, Electro- and Magneto-Ceramics) for radio, television and telephone technology, for adhesive magnets, for rotors in dynamos, for low-loss magnetic layers, for DC-motors, for transformer cores, for electronic calculators and high frequency furnaces. This amounts to an annual worldwide production of more than 300 10 t/a. [Pg.567]

Electro engineering, the chemical industry, and motor vehicle production are the growth branches, the construction and furniture industries are showing a downwards productiOTi index curve. Adhesive manufacturers will therefore concentrate development efforts on the first-mentioned areas. [Pg.220]

Monolayer studies were done on a polyester resin-impregnated fiber glass Langmuir trough, 15.1 X 85 cm and 5 mm deep, coated with paraffin. This arrangement was mounted on a lathe bed equipped with a variable speed motor with a tachometer feedback control which drove the Teflon sweeps at 0.65 cm/min, 1%. Surface pressure measurements were made with a platinum Wilhelmy plate coupled to a Cahn RG Electro-... [Pg.202]

Molecular motors or machines are inspired by biological molecules such as myosin which uses the chemical energy from hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate to drive the linear push-pull motion of muscle. The different coordination demands of Cu and Cu are the basis of electro-chemically induced molecular motion in a pseudorotaxane complex of copper. As shown in Scheme 2, Cu 4, the stable, four-coordinate form is oxidized to unstable Cu°4, which rearranges to the stable five-coordinate form by sliding along the ligand. Reduction of the stable Cir s... [Pg.733]

Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) Chip-level systems based on silicon devices on the order of 100 /u-m and smaller that combine electrical and mechanical functions. MEMS devices are used to implement chip-level motors capable of moving such optical devices as micromirrors, gratings, lenses, and shutters. [Pg.278]
