  2. Electromagnetically induced acoustic noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically...

    The torsional deflection of a simple cylinder cannot radiate efficiently acoustic noise, but with particular boundary conditions the stator can radiate acoustic noise under torque ripple excitation. [8] Structure-borne noise can also be generated by torque ripple when rotor shaft line vibrations propagate to the frame [9] and shaft line.

  3. Engine knocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_knocking

    In spark-ignition internal combustion engines, knocking (also knock, detonation, spark knock, pinging or pinking) occurs when combustion of some of the air/fuel mixture in the cylinder does not result from propagation of the flame front ignited by the spark plug, but when one or more pockets of air/fuel mixture explode outside the envelope of the normal combustion front.

  4. Water hammer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_hammer

    This pressure wave can cause major problems, from noise and vibration to pipe rupture or collapse. It is possible to reduce the effects of the water hammer pulses with accumulators, expansion tanks, surge tanks, blowoff valves, and other features. The effects can be avoided by ensuring that no valves will close too quickly with significant flow ...

  5. Hydrolock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolock

    In most steam engine designs there is a short time at the end of the return stroke of the piston when all the valves are shut and it is compressing any remaining steam. Water can be introduced from the boiler or in a cold engine, steam will condense to water on the cool walls of the cylinders and can potentially hydrolock an engine.

  7. Pulverized coal-fired boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulverized_coal-fired_boiler

    The raw coal is then fed into the pulverizer along with air heated to about 650 °F (340 °C) from the boiler. As the coal gets crushed by the rolling action, the hot air dries it and blows out the usable fine coal powder to be used as fuel. The powdered coal from the pulverizer is directly blown to a burner in the boiler.

  8. Boiler explosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_explosion

    Boiler explosions generally fell into two categories. The first is the breakage of the boiler barrel itself, through weakness/damage or excessive internal pressure, resulting in sudden discharge of steam over a wide area. Stress corrosion cracking at the lap joints was a common cause of early boiler explosions, probably caused by caustic ...

  9. Colors of noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise

    Noise that has a frequency spectrum of predominantly zero power level over all frequencies except for a few narrow bands or spikes. Note: An example of black noise in a facsimile transmission system is the spectrum that might be obtained when scanning a black area in which there are a few random white spots. Thus, in the time domain, a few ...
