  2. Telescopic fork - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_fork

    A telescopic fork is a form of motorcycle front suspension whose use is so common that it is virtually universal. The telescopic fork uses fork tubes and sliders which contain the springs and dampers . The main advantages of the telescopic fork are that it is simple in design and relatively cheap to manufacture and assemble, and that it is ...

  3. Energy tower (downdraft) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_tower_(downdraft)

    An energy tower (also known as a downdraft energy tower, because the air flows down the tower) is a tall (1,000 meters) and wide (400 meters) hollow cylinder with a water spray system at the top. Pumps lift the water to the top of the tower and then spray the water inside the tower. Evaporation of water cools the hot, dry air hovering at the ...

  4. Solar updraft tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_updraft_tower

    The solar updraft tower (SUT) is a design concept for a renewable-energy power plant for generating electricity from low temperature solar heat. Sunshine heats the air beneath a very wide greenhouse-like roofed collector structure surrounding the central base of a very tall chimney tower. The resulting convection causes a hot air updraft in the ...

  5. Vertical draft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_draft

    Vertical drafts, known as updrafts or downdrafts, are localized regions of warm or cool air that move vertically. A mass of warm air will typically be less dense than the surrounding region, and so will rise until it reaches air that is either warmer or less dense than itself. The converse will occur for a mass of cool air, and is known as ...

  6. Rear flank downdraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rear_flank_downdraft

    The rear flank downdraft (RFD) is a region of dry air wrapping around the back of a mesocyclone in a supercell thunderstorm. [1] These areas of descending air are thought to be essential in the production of many supercellular tornadoes. Large hail within the rear flank downdraft often shows up brightly as a hook on weather radar images ...

  7. Downburst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downburst

    t. e. In meteorology, a downburst is a strong downward and outward gushing wind system that emanates from a point source above and blows radially, that is, in straight lines in all directions from the area of impact at surface level. It originates under deep, moist convective conditions like cumulus congestus or cumulonimbus.
