  2. Piezoelectric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_motor

    The inchworm motor uses piezoelectric ceramics to push a stator using a walking-type motion. These piezoelectric motors use three groups of crystals—two 'locking', and one 'motive' that permanently connects to either the motor's casing or stator (not both). The motive group, sandwiched between the other two, provides the motion.

    The gen 4 pump platform was released in 2012. It brought advances in the liquid flow and thermal performance compared to gen 3. The exposed section of the motor was removed from the top of the pump. It was the most-used platform in the company's history, being used by Corsair, NZXT, Thermaltake, Dell, HP, Intel and other companies. [12]

  4. Freeze drying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeze_drying

    Microwave-assisted freeze dryers utilize microwaves to allow for deeper penetration into the sample to expedite the sublimation and heating processes in freeze-drying. This method can be complicated to set up and run as the microwaves can create an electrical field capable of causing gases in the sample chamber to become plasma.

  5. Synchronous motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_motor

    Small synchronous motor with integral stepdown gear from a microwave oven A synchronous electric motor is an AC electric motor in which, at steady state , [ 1 ] the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current ; the rotation period is exactly equal to an integer number of AC cycles.

  6. Boiler feedwater pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater_pump

    A means had to be provided, of course, to put the initial charge of water into the boiler (before steam power was available to operate the steam-powered feedwater pump). The pump was often a positive displacement pump that had steam valves and cylinders at one end and feedwater cylinders at the other end; no crankshaft was required.

  7. Microwave electrothermal thruster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_electrothermal...

    Microwave electrothermal thruster, also known as MET, is a propulsion device that converts microwave energy [1] (a type of electromagnetic radiation) into thermal (or heat) energy. These thrusters are predominantly used in spacecraft propulsion , more specifically to adjust the spacecraft’s position and orbit.

  8. Radiation hardening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_hardening

    Radiation hardening is the process of making electronic components and circuits resistant to damage or malfunction caused by high levels of ionizing radiation (particle radiation and high-energy electromagnetic radiation), [1] especially for environments in outer space (especially beyond low Earth orbit), around nuclear reactors and particle accelerators, or during nuclear accidents or nuclear ...

  9. TEFC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TEFC_motor

    Oil Well Pump Motors – Severe Duty Motors – Pool Pump Motors – One of the quietest motor pump on the market, due to its permanent magnet motor and TEFC design; Compare to the ODP (Open Drip Proof) motor design, which has ventilation openings which are guarded to prevent falling water from entering the motor windings.
