  2. Passive ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_ventilation

    A roof turbine ventilator, colloquially known as a 'Whirly Bird' is an application of wind driven ventilation. Passive ventilation is the process of supplying air to and removing air from an indoor space without using mechanical systems.

    Cooling air for the turbine vanes undergoes a similar process. Cooling the leading edge of the blade can be difficult, because the pressure of the cooling air just inside the cooling hole may not be much different from that of the oncoming gas stream. One solution is to incorporate a cover plate on the disc.

  4. Turbo-compound engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo-compound_engine

    The power-recovery turbine sits underneath a two-stroke diesel engine. A turbo-compound engine is a reciprocating engine that employs a turbine to recover energy from the exhaust gases. Instead of using that energy to drive a turbocharger as found in many high-power aircraft engines , the energy is instead sent to the output shaft to increase ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_engine

    This was the motivation behind the development of the gas turbine engine, the most common form of jet engine. The key to a practical jet engine was the gas turbine, extracting power from the engine itself to drive the compressor. The gas turbine was not a new idea: the patent for a stationary turbine was granted to John Barber in

  6. Register (air and heating) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_(air_and_heating)

    A grille is a perforated cover for an air duct (used for heating, cooling, or ventilation, or a combination thereof). Grilles sometimes have louvers which allow the flow of air to be directed. A register differs from a grille in that a damper is included.

  7. Surface condenser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_condenser

    In thermal power plants, the purpose of a surface condenser is to condense the exhaust steam from a steam turbine to obtain maximum efficiency, and also to convert the turbine exhaust steam into pure water (referred to as steam condensate) so that it may be reused in the steam generator or boiler as boiler feed water.
