    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashback_arrestor

    A flashback arrestor [1] or flash arrestor is a gas safety device most commonly used in oxy-fuel welding and cutting to stop the flame or reverse flow of gas back up into the equipment or supply line. It protects the user and equipment from damage or explosions.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_governor

    Centrifugal governors were invented by Christiaan Huygens and used to regulate the distance and pressure between millstones in windmills in the 17th century. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] James Watt designed his first governor in 1788 following a suggestion from his business partner Matthew Boulton .

  4. Droop speed control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droop_speed_control

    Droop speed control is a control mode used for AC electrical power generators, whereby the power output of a generator reduces as the line frequency increases. It is commonly used as the speed control mode of the governor of a prime mover driving a synchronous generator connected to an electrical grid. It works by controlling the rate of power ...

  5. Open-circuit saturation curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_saturation_curve

    As the iron saturates with higher excitation and thus higher magnetic flux, the reluctance increases, and the OCC deflects down from the air-gap line. [ 1 ] The curve is obtained by rotating the generator at the rated RPM with the output terminals disconnected and the output voltage typically going to at least 120% of the rated for the device.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

    Most regulators have two stages. The first stage is a fixed-pressure regulator, which releases gas from the cylinder at a constant intermediate pressure, despite the pressure in the cylinder falling as the gas in it is consumed. This is similar to the first stage of a scuba-diving regulator. The adjustable second stage of the regulator controls ...

  7. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    Two-gauge pressure regulator connected to gas cylinder used for breathing gas supply. Pressure regulators are used with diving cylinders for Scuba diving. The tank may contain pressures in excess of 3,000 pounds per square inch (210 bar), which could cause a fatal barotrauma injury to a person breathing it directly. A demand controlled ...
