Chassis ground is a connection to ground on the case of an appliance or the body of a vehicle. It provides a potential-free voltage reference and dissipates interference, transient voltages, and static electricity. Grounding is important for establishing reference voltages and protecting circuit components. Automobile electrical systems are typically negative ground loops, with the chassis […]
A fuel pump relay directs power to the electric fuel pump, preventing overheating. It’s located under the hood, and turning the key to the on position can test it. If it’s faulty, it’s easy to replace. A fuel pump relay is an electrical device much like an automotive fuse. It directs power to the electric […]

Multicore cables contain more lines than a typical cable of that type, and are common in construction, audio and video work, and civil construction. They have all the necessary parts of a single core cable but are wrapped up with other lines. They are found in condominiums and city infrastructure. A multicore cable is an […]
Cerebrovascular disease affects blood supply to the brain and can lead to stroke or aneurysm. Risk factors include age, smoking, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Medical imaging can detect issues, and managing conditions and early detection are important. Cerebrovascular disease (CVD) is a family of medical conditions that affect the blood supply to the brain. […]
Car engines have intake and exhaust manifolds that provide fuel/air mixture and collect exhaust, respectively. Intake manifolds create a vacuum that can power other engine elements, while exhaust manifolds consist of headers and manifolds. Manifold failure is common due to heat. Car engines are complex pieces of machinery with countless moving parts that facilitate combustion, […]

Refrigeration load is the amount of heat that needs to be removed to maintain a desired temperature in a space. It depends on factors such as volume, insulation, and the items inside. Modern refrigerators use liquid ammonia. The refrigeration load is calculated to design an efficient refrigerator or air conditioning unit for a space. Climate, […]
Infomercials are longer video formats that combine product information and promotional commercials. They can be scripted in various ways, such as talk shows, demonstrations, or high production value samplers. Infomercials can be effective for niche products, but claims should be reviewed by consumers prior to purchase. Some products can be successfully launched to the public […]
Steam locomotives were the primary power source for railways from the early 1800s to the early 20th century. They use fuel to heat a boiler filled with water, creating high-pressure steam that pushes pistons to move the wheels of the locomotive. However, they have problems such as boiler explosions and the need for substantial amounts […]
Bituminous concrete, also known as asphalt, is a popular material used for paving roads, driveways, and parking lots. It is made of stone and aggregate materials held together by bitumen, a by-product of petroleum refining. While it is not as strong as traditional concrete, it offers a smoother and quieter ride and is easy to […]
Bead welding is a process of combining metal pieces by heating and softening them with a filler material. There are different types of weld beads, and the technique involves drawing a filler material across the weld surface. Safety precautions are necessary, and advanced techniques can produce a finished product that resembles stacked coins or discs. […]
Outboard power steering is necessary for boats with motors over 50 horsepower, making turning and maintaining a straight line easier. The hydraulic system has replaced the older cable and pulley system, and is especially important for dual outboard configurations.
