  2. Staged combustion cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staged_combustion_cycle

    The main advantage is fuel efficiency due to all of the propellant flowing to the main combustion chamber, which also allows for higher thrust. The staged combustion cycle is sometimes referred to as closed cycle, as opposed to the gas generator, or open cycle where a portion of propellant never reaches the main combustion chamber. The ...

  3. Pressure swing adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_swing_adsorption

    Using two adsorbent vessels allows for near-continuous production of the target gas. It also allows a pressure equalisation, where the gas leaving the vessel being depressurised is used to partially pressurise the second vessel. This results in significant energy savings, and is a common industrial practice.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydropower

    The head is the energy per unit weight (or unit mass) of water. [5] The static head is proportional to the difference in height through which the water falls. Dynamic head is related to the velocity of moving water. Each unit of water can do an amount of work equal to its weight times the head.

    Sample flowchart representing a decision process when confronted with a lamp that fails to light. In psychology, decision-making (also spelled decision making and decisionmaking) is regarded as the cognitive process resulting in the selection of a belief or a course of action among several possible alternative options.

    An integrated circuit voltage regulator. A voltage regulator is a system designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage.It may use a simple feed-forward design or may include negative feedback.

  7. Nitrogen generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_generator

    High nitrogen purity: PSA nitrogen generator plants allow production of high-purity nitrogen from air, which membrane systems are unable to provide – up to 99.9995% nitrogen. But in most cases they do not produce more than 98.8% nitrogen with the remainder being argon that is not separated from the nitrogen by the usual PSA process.

    Pros and Cons is an American crime drama television series that ran on ABC from September 26, 1991 to January 2, 1992, in the United States during the 1991–92 television season. It is a revamped, more lighthearted version of Gabriel's Fire , which aired on ABC the previous season.

  9. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    Instead of making wind turbine blade reinforcements from pure glass or pure carbon, hybrid designs trade weight for cost. For example, for an 8-metre (26 ft) blade, a full replacement by carbon fiber would save 80% of weight but increase costs by 150%, while a 30% replacement would save 50% of weight and increase costs by 90%.
