2. Explosively pumped flux compression generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosively_pumped_flux...

   An explosively pumped flux compression generator ( EPFCG) is a device used to generate a high-power electromagnetic pulse by compressing magnetic flux using high explosive . An EPFCG only ever generates a single pulse as the device is physically destroyed during operation. They require a starting current pulse to operate, usually supplied by ...

3. Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_Canada_PT6

   Turbine: 1-stage gas generator power turbine + 1-stage free power turbine; Fuel type: Aviation kerosene to MIL-F-5624E / JP-4 / JP-5; Oil system: Split system with gear type pressure and scavenge pumps, with pressure to gearbox boosted by a second pump.

4. Synchronous motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_motor

   Small synchronous motor with integral stepdown gear from a microwave oven. A synchronous electric motor is an AC electric motor in which, at steady state, [1] the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current; the rotation period is exactly equal to an integer number of AC cycles.

5. Free-piston engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-piston_engine

   Free-piston engine used as a gas generator to drive a turbine. A free-piston engine is a linear, 'crankless' internal combustion engine, in which the piston motion is not controlled by a crankshaft but determined by the interaction of forces from the combustion chamber gases, a rebound device (e.g., a piston in a closed cylinder) and a load device (e.g. a gas compressor or a linear alternator).

6. Turboexpander - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turboexpander

   Schematic diagram of a turboexpander driving a compressor. A turboexpander, also referred to as a turbo-expander or an expansion turbine, is a centrifugal or axial-flow turbine, through which a high- pressure gas is expanded to produce work that is often used to drive a compressor or generator. [ 1][ 2][ 3] Because work is extracted from the ...
