The main difference of these pumps' design compared with the gear pump is the presence of big teeth and big cavities in the gears. The pitch of big teeth and big cavities is greater than the pitch of small teeth in 3, 5, 7 or more times. Besides,
Over the past year, Capital Sun Group has been working with SunDrum Solar, Net Zero Meter, and New Grid Energy to develop a solar source heat pump system that incorporates a hybrid photovoltaic (PV)/solar thermal collector array that generates electrical power and solar thermal energy simultaneously.
Conventional cooling methods like Mechanical Vapour Compression Cycle uses refrigerants which contains CFC which depletes ozone. Looking forward for a green and cost efficient cooling source, the ‘Peltier-Seebeck’ effect paves way for a new technology called ‘Thermoelectrics’. When voltage is applied to Peltier element,

IntelliSense® is a “smart” technology platform that combines sensors and software to deliver real-time performance data for pneumatic devices. For the first time users will be able to employ condition-based monitoring to be proactive about maintenance and system optimization,
Since the introduction of electric motors in the modern automotive industry, demand has been increasing for production of smaller and faster motors; as a result, the field of power electronics is being pushed beyond its limits.
Having seen construction labourers slog for hours to construct brick walls and trying very hard all the time to maintain proper alignment of the bricks, we have come up with a novel machine to make this process faster and a lot more efficient.
In the existing method,
Approximately 11% of the global burden of disease can be addressed with surgery. However, due to lack of necessary equipment, many cases go undone and those that are done are compromised by lack of adequate monitoring. Furthermore, a low cost,
BDCOTSRUS, Inc, is a 501(c)(3) corporation. We want to promote a design for personal transportation that is safe, environmentally friendly, fuel efficient, and cost effective. We believe that a car that achieves one-hundred miles per-gallon does not need to be prototypical because the technology is currently available.
Small-scale hydro power from floating dams would be reliable and ecologically friendly. Because of the low cost and the longevity of micro hydro, developing countries may manufacture and implement the technology to help supply the needed electricity to small communities in remote areas.
