A vacuum pump is a powerhouse machine that removes air, gases, moisture, and contaminants from a system to create a clean environment for refrigerants. These efficient and powerful machines need clean ...

In principle, industrial vacuum pumps are merely compressors run with the inlet attached to the vacuum system and the outlet open to exhaust. In smaller sizes, compressors and vacuum pumps are often ...

Cummins’ 5.9L diesel engines have many wonderful traits, from the simplicity of their design to the durability and reliability of their internal components. However, the powerplants also have parts ...

Any time the internal piping or components of a refrigeration system are exposed to atmospheric air, they must be completely evacuated before refrigerant can be added into the system. Proper ...

DARPA-funded researchers recently demonstrated the world’s smallest vacuum pumps. This breakthrough technology may create new national security applications for electronics and sensors that require a ...

Single-stage and multi-stage vacuum pumps have been around for quite some time, but some designers and engineers remain unsure about when to use one versus the other. For example, which pump is best ...

MEMS and motor control are two things we cover and small vacuum pumps are often controlled by micros so it made sense to talk with Dr. Wei Yang about Honeywell’s latest technology breakthrough, a tiny ...

Three DARPA-funded research teams have completed a foundational study of chip-scale vacuum pumps by inventing three very different approaches to removing air from a sample chamber with a volume of one ...

State-owned Korea Midland Power Co. (KOMIPO) operates the Shin Boryeong Thermal Power Plant (TPP), a two-unit, 2,000-MW ultrasupercritical bituminous-coal-fired power plant. Shin Boryeong TPP is an ...
