  2. Hail cannon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hail_cannon

    A hail cannon is a shock wave generator claimed to disrupt the formation of hailstones in the atmosphere. These devices frequently engender conflict between farmers and neighbors when used, [ 1 ] because they are loudly and repeatedly fired every 1 to 10 seconds while a storm is approaching and until it has passed through the area, yet there is ...

  3. Explosive-driven ferromagnetic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosive-driven...

    The shock wave generated by explosion destroys the magnetic domains in the magnet, cause loss of the magnetic field, and the very sudden change induces a high-peak electric current in the surrounding coil. Both the shock wave directions parallel to the vector of magnetization (longitudinal) and perpendicular (transverse) are possible to be used.

  4. Explosively pumped flux compression generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosively_pumped_flux...

    The convergent cylindrical shock wave unleashed by the explosion produces a rapid contraction (greater than 1 km/s) of the central cylinder, compressing the magnetic field, and creating an inductive current, as per the explanation above (the speed of contraction permits, to first approximation, the neglect of Joule losses and the consideration ...

  5. Salter's duck - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salter's_duck

    Salter's duck, also known as the nodding duck or by its official name the Edinburgh duck, is a device that converts wave power into electricity. The wave impact induces rotation of gyroscopes located inside a pear-shaped "duck", and an electrical generator converts this rotation into electricity with an overall efficiency of up to 90%.

  6. Wave disk engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_disk_engine

    A wave disk engine or wave disk generator is a type of pistonless rotary engine being developed at Michigan State University and Warsaw Institute of Technology. The engine has a spinning disk with curved blades.

  7. Sterling (program) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterling_(program)

    A feature of Sterling is the richness of the renders. Sterling has a simple GUI interface with a limited number of functions. The program saves files as JPEG, BMP or one of six other formats. It draws in Julia mode, allows inside-out rendering and does anti-aliasing. It offers 32 different renders and four transform effects.

  8. Stirling radioisotope generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Stirling_radioisotope_generator

    A Stirling radioisotope generator (SRG) is a type of radioisotope generator based on a Stirling engine powered by a large radioisotope heater unit. The hot end of the Stirling converter reaches high temperature and heated helium drives the piston, with heat being rejected at the cold end of the engine.

  9. ZND detonation model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZND_detonation_model

    For a self-propagating detonation, the shock relaxes to a speed given by the Chapman–Jouguet condition, which induces the material at the end of the reaction zone to have a locally sonic speed in the reference frame in which the shock is stationary. In effect, all of the chemical energy is harnessed to propagate the shock wave forward.
