Usage Examples English
- Researchers at KAIST have developed the Online Electric Vehicle (OLEV), a technique of powering vehicles through cables underneath the surface of the road via non-contact magnetic charging (a power source is placed underneath the road surface and power is wirelessly picked up on the vehicle itself).
- The earliest attempts at airbreathing jet engines were hybrid designs in which an external power source first compressed air, which was then mixed with fuel and burned for jet thrust.
- Getting the black hole to act as a power source and engine also requires a way to convert the Hawking radiation into energy and thrust.
- The audio dramas "The Apocalypse Element" and "Dalek Empire" also depicted the alien villains invading Gallifrey and then creating their own version of the Time Lord power source known as the Eye of Harmony, allowing the Daleks to rebuild an empire and become a greater threat against the Time Lords and other races that possess time travel.
- Alpha decay can provide a safe power source for radioisotope thermoelectric generators used for space probes and were used for artificial heart pacemakers.
- With this low power consumption came the possibility of using solar cells as the power source, realised around 1978 by calculators such as the Royal "Solar 1", Sharp "EL-8026", and Teal "Photon".
- The "single-revolution clutch" was developed in the 19th century to power machinery such as shears or presses where a single pull of the operating lever or (later) press of a button would trip the mechanism, engaging the clutch between the power source and the machine's crankshaft for exactly one revolution before disengaging the clutch.
- The space probe "Voyager 1" is moving in the direction of this constellation, though it will not be nearing any of the stars in this constellation for many thousands of years, by which time its power source will be long dead.
- Non-spontaneous reactions require an input of energy to go forward (examples include charging a battery driven by an external electrical power source, or photosynthesis driven by absorption of electromagnetic radiation usually in the form of sunlight).
- The propeller is usually mounted in front of the power source in "tractor configuration" but can be mounted behind in "pusher configuration".
- They concluded that "prudent use of power" can be beneficial for both the power source and the power target.
- 90Sr has been used as a power source for radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs).
- Rust removal from small iron or steel objects by electrolysis can be done in a home workshop using simple materials such as a plastic bucket filled with an electrolyte consisting of washing soda dissolved in tap water, a length of rebar suspended vertically in the solution to act as an anode, another laid across the top of the bucket to act as a support for suspending the object, baling wire to suspend the object in the solution from the horizontal rebar, and a battery charger as a power source in which the positive terminal is clamped to the anode and the negative terminal is clamped to the object to be treated which becomes the cathode.
- Recovery efforts were underway to raise a test article which had landed in the White Sea during testing in 2018 when the nuclear power source of the missile detonated and killed 5 researchers.
- Efficiency is a measure of how much of the power source is usefully applied to the amplifier's output.
- In "electromechanical pendulum clocks" such as used in mechanical Master clocks the power source is replaced by an electrically powered solenoid that provides the impulses to the pendulum by magnetic force, and the escapement is replaced by a switch or photodetector that senses when the pendulum is in the right position to receive the impulse.
- Electric heaters and electric stoves may provide pollution-free heat (depending on the power source), but use large amounts of electricity.
- Theoretical calculations made during funding reviews pointed out that the system would have significant difficulty scaling up to contain enough fusion fuel to be relevant as a power source.
- Memory, processors, network controllers, power source, and storage would be integrated into some systems.
- The processor needs three power sources (−5, +5, and +12 V) and two non-overlapping high-amplitude synchronizing signals.
