Mechanical Definitions |
Internal Brake : It is a friction brake in which an internal
shoe follows the inner surface of the rotating brake drum. Then
it wedges itself between the drum and the point at which it
is anchored. Internal brake is used in motor vehicles. |
Internal Furnace : It is a boiler furnace which is having
a firebox within a water-cooled heating surface. |
Internal Grinder : It is a machine which grinds the surfaces
of holes. |
Intertube Burner : It is a type of burner which utilizes
a nozzle that discharges between adjacent tubes. |
Inverse Cam : It is a type of cam which is designed to
act as a follower instead of a driver. |
Inversion Temperature : The temperature to which one
junction of a thermocouple must be raised to make the thermoelectric
electromotive force in the circuit equal to zero when the other
junction of the thermocouple is held at a low temperature which
is constant. |
Inverted Engine : A type of engine in which the cylinders
are below the crankshaft. |
Involute Spline Broach : It is a type of broach which
is designed to cut multiple keys in the form of internal or
external involute gear teeth. |
Ion Implantation : It is a process of materials engineering
by which ions of a material can be implanted into another solid,
thereby changing the physical properties of the solid. |
Ionosonde : It is a special radar to examine the ionosphere.
It is used in order to find the best frequency for finding operation
frequencies in the shortwave range. It is also known as Chirpsounder.
