Introduction Most modern internal combustion engine s are cooled by a closed circuit carrying liquid antifreeze coolant coolant through channels in the engine block and cylinder head, where the coolant absorbs heat, to a heat exchanger or radiator where the coolant releases heat into the air. Thus, while they are ultimately cooled by air, because of the liquid coolant circuit they are known as water cooled . In contrast, heat generated by an aircooledengine is released directly into the air. Typically this is facilitated with metal Fin extended surface fins covering the outside of the cylinder engine cylinder s which increase the surface area that air can act on.

A gas cooled reactor GCR is a nuclear reactor that uses graphite as a neutron moderator and carbon dioxide helium can also be used as nuclear reactor coolant coolant . Although there are many other types of reactor cooled by gas, the terms GCR and to a lesser extent gas cooled reactor are particularly used to refer to this type of reactor. The GCR was able to use natural uranium as fuel, enabling the countries that developed them to fabricate their own fuel without relying on other countries for supplies of enriched uranium , which was at the time of their development only available from the United States or Soviet Union . There were two main types of generation I GCR The Magnox reactors developed by the United Kingdom . The UNGG reactor s developed by France . The main difference between these two types is in the fuel cladding material. Both types were mainly constructed in their countries of origin, with a few export sales Magnox plants to Italy and Japan , and a UNGG to Spain . Both types used fuel cladding materials that were unsuitable for medium term storage under water, making nuclear reprocessing reprocessing an essential part of the nuclear fuel cycle . Both types were, in their countries of origin, also designed and used to produce weapons grade plutonium , but at the cost of major interruption to their use for power generation despite the provision of online refuelling .

The organic moderated and cooled reactor OCR was an early power reactor concept studied in the formative years of nuclear power by the United States Atomic Energy Commission and others around the world. The concept reactor was very similar to light water reactor s LWRs in fuel element and reactor core design, but used hydrocarbon as a coolant and neutron moderator in lieu of water. The hot organic coolant was pumped through secondary heat exchanger s to boil water and generate steam to run a turbogenerator . As in LWRs, the fuel could be slightly enriched uranium enriched uranium dioxide , though other fuel types were considered. History Though this reactor type has been the subject of extensive study, no large power plants using organic coolant have been built. The Canadians operated a 60 MWe heavy water organic cooled reactor from 1965 to 1985. An 45.5 MWe demonstration reactor was operated for a brief period in Piqua, Ohio and was the only power reactor of its kind ever constructed in the United States. The Piqua Nuclear Generating Station was shut down in 1966 due to an instrument scram . In the process of resuming operation, it was discovered that two control rod s did not move freely within their guide tubes and four nuclear fuel elements required abnormally high force to remove. Subsequently, these fuel elements would not reseat. A complete unloading of the core showed that large ..., the organic moderated and cooled reactor has several inherent advantages.

The AGR was developed from the Magnox reactor, operating at a higher gas temperature for improved thermal efficiency, requiring stainless steel fuel cladding to withstand the higher temperature. Because the stainless steel fuel cladding has a higher neutron capture cross section than Magnox fuel cans, enriched uranium fuel is needed, with the benefit of higher burn ups of 18,000 Watt Electrical and thermal watts MW sub t sub days per tonne of fuel, requiring less frequent refuelling.

An internal fan cooled electric motor colloquially, fan cooled motor is a self cooling electric motor . Fan cooled motors feature an Fan mechanical axial fan attached to the Rotor electric rotor of the motor usually on the opposite end as the output shaft that spins with the motor, providing increased airflow to the motor s internal and external parts which aids in cooling. Image Smallfancooledmotor.jpg 250px right Uses Fan cooled motors have many common uses in motors that either produce a lot of heat or have poor airflow because they are always stationary or in an enclosed space and require a compact cooling system. They are common for industrial uses ref http www.frasers.com public searchResults.jsf jsessionid AA6F5C172D9346CF0319292AF52D3B5A?dimensionName Motors Fan Cooled&guided true&ProductID 16669 ref , household appliances such as blenders and mixers, power tools such as drills and rotary tools, and radio controlled car s ref http www.traxxas.com products accessories trx accessories titan12t.htm ref Advantages Attaching an internal fan to a motor is a fairly simple way to cool it. Since a fan cooled motor always provides airflow over itself regardless of whether it is stationary or partially enclosed, it is more effective than using a heat sink in applications with poor airflow because heat sink s usually require air to be flowing over them for maximum effectiveness. Internal fan cooling also takes up far less space than TEFC external fan cooling or water cooling . Disadvantages All fans generate noise, something that may not be desired in a motor, and Drag physics drag on their power source. Also, like any device with a Fan mechanical fan , increased airflow through the motor can cause increased dust build up, which could potentially hinder the motor s operation.

A vacuum engine derives its force from air pressure against one side of the piston, which has a Vacuum partial vacuum on the other side of it. At the beginning of an outstroke, a valve in the head of the cylinder opens and admits a charge of burning gas and air, which is trapped by the closing of the valve and expands. Towards the end of the stroke the charge comes into contact with a water or aircooled part of the cylinder and is chilled, causing a sudden drop in pressure sufficient to suck the piston which is open towards the crank back on the return stroke. The valve opens again in time for the piston to expel the burnt gases before the next outstroke begins. History main History of the internal combustion engine Some early gas engine s worked on the vacuum or atmospheric principle in a similar way to the Newcomen steam engine . A mixture of gas and air was drawn into the cylinder and ignited the mixture expanded and part of it escaped through the exhaust valve the valve then closed, the mixture cooled and contracted, and atmospheric pressure pushed the piston in. Such engines were very inefficient and were superseded by engines working on the Otto cycle . Vacuum motor In a vacuum motor, the partial vacuum is created by an external pump. These motors were commonly used to power Turntable rail railway turntables in the UK , using vacuum created by a steam locomotive s vacuum brake ejector. The operating principle is identical to a steam engine in both cases power is extracted from a difference in pressure. Small vacuum motors were also used to operate windscreen wiper s in automobile s. In this case, the motors were powered by manifold vacuum . This arrangement was not very satisfactory because, if the throttle was opened wide, the wipers would slow down. Modern automobiles use electrically powered wipers.

Thus, the cylinders are arranged in four banks, driving a common crankshaft . Viewed head on, this would appear as an X. X engines were often coupled engines derived from existing powerplants. This configuration is extremely uncommon, primarily due its weight and complexity as compared to a radial engine . It was more compact per number of cylinders than a V engine, however. Shorter crankshafts relative to a inline or V design also appealed to early 20th century engineers like Henry Ford , given the less developed metallurgical technology of the time. ref citation work Popular Science date August 1960 pages 64 67 title Henry Ford s Weird Old Engines url http books.google.ca books?id xSUDAAAAMBAJ&pg PA64 ref Most examples of X engines are from the World War II era, and were designed for large military aircraft.

File Orbital engine.jpg right thumb Orbital engine on display in Jakarta The Sarich orbital engine is a type of internal combustion engine , featuring rotary rather than reciprocating motion of its internal parts. It differs from the conceptually similar Wankel engine by using a shaped rotor that rolls around the interior of the engine, rather than having a trilobular rotor that spins in place . Overview The theoretical advantage is that there is no high speed contact area with the engine walls, unlike in the Wankel where edge wear is a problem. However, the combustion chambers are divided by blades which do have contact with both the walls and the rotor, and are said to have been difficult to seal due to the perpendicular intersection with the moving impeller. The orbital engine was invented in 1972 by Ralph Sarich , an engineer from Perth, Australia, who worked on the concept for years without ever producing a production engine. A prototype was demonstrated, running on the bench with no load. The engine can run on compressed air or steam. The engine does not need oil to run at all citation needed reason The Technical Problems section says that some parts of the engine cannot readily be lubricated. How can this be a problem if the engine requires no lubrication? date August 2011 . It produces very high revs. It has only one moving part which can be run as a pump.
