Until the 1960s‚ the radio was the only significant electronics in an automobile. All other functions were entirely mechanical or electrical‚ such as the starter motor and the battery charging systems. There were no “intelligent safety systems‚” augmenting the bumper and structural members to protect occupants in case of accidents. Seat belts‚ introduced in the early 1960s‚ were for improving occupant safety and actuated completely mechanically. The driver or one of several mechanical control

Techniques of Waste Heat Recovery Waste heat recovery is being more used more and more often today as it is becoming more effective‚ due to increasing energy prices‚ technological developments and a decrease in equipment costs. Heat recovery can be classified into three main strategies: recycling energy back into the process‚ recovering the energy for other onsite use and using it to generate electricity in combined heat and power systems. Once the system has been made as efficient as possible before

Heat in physics is defined as energy in transit. It is symbolized with the alphabet Q. (Strong‚ Martin C. The Great Alternative and Indie Discography of Heat) It is mostly connected with different movements of atoms‚ molecules and other particles. These particles either consist of particles that are either hot or cold. High temperature bodies‚ are often caused due to the high heat transfer‚ which is created by chemical reactions‚ nuclear reactions‚ electromagnetic dissipation‚ or mechanical dissipation
