solenoid valve

A solenoid valve is an electrically operated device that is used to control the flow of liquids or gas through pipes and tubes. Its main part is the solenoid, which is a coil wound on a cylinder that generates a magnetic field when it is…

spájka

Spájka je kov, alebo eutektická zliatina kovov, topiaca sa pri nízkej teplote, určená k pevnému spájanie materiálov z iných kovov. Spájanie pomocou spájky sa nazýva spájkovanie. Spájky sa podľa pracovných teplôt (rozhranie…

spájkovanie

Spájkovanie alebo hovorovo letovanie je metóda metalurgického spájania kovových predmetov iným kovom - spájkou, ktorého teplota tavenia je nižšia, ako teplota tavenia spájaného materiálu. Spoj…

spaliny

Pod spalinami rozumieme splodiny horenia. Tými sú v pevnom skupenstve škvara, troska, popolček, sadze. V plynnom skupenstve (výfukové plyny) ide o oxid uhličitý, siričitý, uhoľnatý, dusík, vodná para a neoxidované vzácne plyny nachádzajúce sa…

spaľovací motor

Spaľovací motor (v širšom zmysle) je stroj, ktorý spálením paliva premieňa jeho chemickú energiu na mechanickú prácu. K spaľovaniu paliva, alebo palivovej zmesi môže dochádzať v motore, ale aj mimo…
