  2. Vacuum ejector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_Ejector

    A vacuum ejector, or simply ejector, or aspirator, is a type of vacuum pump, which produces vacuum by means of the Venturi effect.. In an ejector, a working fluid (liquid or gaseous) flows through a jet nozzle into a tube that first narrows and then expands in cross-sectional area.

  3. Hard disk drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive

    Software reports hard disk drive or memory capacity in different forms using either decimal or binary prefixes. The Microsoft Windows family of operating systems uses the binary convention when reporting storage capacity, so an HDD offered by its manufacturer as a 1 TB drive is reported by these operating systems as a 931 GB HDD.

  4. Vapor-compression evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor-compression_evaporation

    Where Q d is the steam quantity at ejector delivery, Q s at ejector suction and Q m is the motive steam quantity. For this reason, a thermocompression evaporator often features a vapor condenser , due to the possible excess of steam necessary for the compression if compared with the steam required to evaporate the solution.

  5. Injector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injector

    The steam injector is a common device used for delivering water to steam boilers, especially in steam locomotives. It is a typical application of the injector principle used to deliver cold water to a boiler against its own pressure, using its own live or exhaust steam, replacing any mechanical pump.

  6. Vacuum engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_engineering

    Vacuum systems usually consist of gauges, vapor jet and pumps, vapor traps and valves along with other extensional piping. A vessel that is operating under vacuum system may be any of these types such as processing tank, steam simulator, particle accelerator, or any other type of space that has an enclosed chamber to maintain the system in less than atmospheric gas pressure.

  7. Hard disk drive interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive_interface

    Disk drive interfaces have evolved from simple interfaces requiring complex controllers to attach to a computer into high level interfaces that present a consistent interface to a computer system regardless of the internal technology of the hard disk drive. The following table lists some common HDD interfaces in chronological order:

  8. Surface condenser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_condenser

    For a steam ejector, the motive fluid is steam. For water-cooled surface condensers, the shell's internal vacuum is most commonly supplied by and maintained by an external steam jet ejector system. Such an ejector system uses steam as the motive fluid to remove any non-condensible gases that may be present in the surface condenser.

  9. Steam jet cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_jet_cooling

    Steam jet cooling uses a high-pressure jet of steam to cool water or other fluid media. Typical uses include industrial sites, where a suitable steam supply already exists for other purposes or, historically, for air conditioning on passenger trains which use steam for heating. Steam jet cooling experienced a wave of popularity during the early ...
