What is Transistor Controlled Ignition?
Instead of using a distributor to determine when each cylinder fires, the car's ECU uses camshaft and crankshaft position sensors, along with MAP/MAF and throttle position sensors to determine the optimum time to fire each cylinder for the most power/lowest emissions. As opposed to fixed advance (vacuum or centrifugal) employed in distributors. Transistor Controlled Ignition is commonly referred to as Coil On Plug (COP), Transistor Controlled Ignition is just marketing bumpf to make it sound awesome.

How do power plants work?
A diesel engine converts the energy contained in the diesel fuel into mechanical energy in the form of rotation of a shaft. The shaft turns a generator which is essentially a magnet contained within a coil of wire. The generator converts the rotational energy into a voltage across the coil - electrical energy. Diesel plants are used primarily in two applications: 1. There is a need for an emergency source of backup electrical power, and the relatively low 'first cost' of diesel generation combined with its ability to start up rather rapidly (often in 10 sec or less) are attractive features. Incidentally, there is a special case of this 'emergency' application - in the entertainment industry, it is common for diesel gensets to be used to power lights and sound for special events. For example, rock musicians often bring in special diesel power plants to support their performances rather than relying on the available commercial supplier. Another special case is that for the past several cycles, NBC's broadcasts of the Olympics have been powered by diesel gensets. Olympics venues are often in remote areas where the existing power infrastructure is limited and it doesn't make economic sense to expand those facilities for games lasting only two-three weeks. Also, that has allowed NBC to design one set of broadcast equipment so that they don't have to deal with the fact that the frequency of indigenous power infrastructure varies from one host country to the next. 2. There is a need for a base-load source of modest size and low first cost. This is most often the case in areas where there is no commercial power supplier, and the amount of capacity that is needed is relatively small. The downside of diesel plants include: 1. They are very noisy. 2. They are not very efficient - diesel engines produce a lot of waste heat. Practical economies exist only if there are no local sources of fuel, and the cost of transporting diesel fuel is favorable compared with the cost of bringing in the fuels required for alternative technologies. 3. Diesel fuel has to be transported to and stored on the site. Diesel power plants that have operated for a number of years in developing areas are typically horrible examples of environmental contamination. 4. The airborn effluent from diesel plants is noxious. 5. Diesel engines require a lot of maintenance.
Who is the chief construction engineer at the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant in Florida City Fl?
The architect/engineer for Turkey Point was Bechtel Power, Inc. The Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) located on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) website lists in section 1.4.2.8.1 that Bechtel Power Corporation prepared and published the Combined Operating License (COL) application. Implication is that Bechtel will be the Architect/Engineer (AE) for the two new units 6 & 7.
Is Power required to drive a centrifugal pump is directly proportional to diameter of the impellor?
yes....power is directly proportional to cube of dia.
If you double the speed of centrifugal pump?
Centrifugal pumps generally obey what are known as the pump laws. These laws state that the flow rate or capacity is directly proportional to the pump speed; the discharge head is directly proportional to the square of the pump speed; and the power required by the pump motor is directly proportional to the cube of the pump speed.
Why the centrifugal pump is called high discharge pump?
for a simple reason because it has high discharge than any other available pump. the centrifugal pump uses the centrifugal force to push out the fluid centrifugal force = (mass *velocity2)/radius. hence centrifugal force is directly proportional to the square of the velocity, in this case being the velocity of the fluid. power provided to pump proportional to the force exerted by the impeller.hence higher the power results in higher centrifugal force implying square of the velocity of the fluid. higher the velocity of the fluid higher the discharge of the pump.
How would you relate power to current?
Power is directly-proportional to the square of the current.
What are characteristics of centrifugal pump?
centrifugal pump is that machine which converts the mechanical energy into pressure energy . 1. it produces th pressure energy by applying the centrifugal force. 2. flow in it is radial outward direction. 3.the pressure head at the outlet is more than the at inlet, so fluid can be lifted to very high .level 4.in case of centrifugal pump, discharge is proportional to speed in r.p.m power is proportional to ( speed in r.p.m)^3 head is proportional to ( speed in r. p.m)^2 5. it is subjected to cavitation.
Do Power is directly proportional to resistance or inversely proportional to resistance?
It is both proportional and inversely propertional to resistance however I am not exactly sure why which is why I am searching Google ATM for answers.
Does the Satan knows unknown tongue?
Its personal enough to where his knowledge is directly proportional to your own. If you give it power it has power.
What is the equation or the formula getting power?
P(watt)=energy/time. Where power in measure in watt directly proportional to energy(work) and inversely proportional to time in seconds. 1W = .001kW
Why does the light gathering power of a telescope vary?
The light gathering power of a telescope is directly proportional to the area of the objective lens of the telescope.
What is hydraulic horsepower?
A hydraulic variable that describes the power provided by a hydraulic system. HHP is directly proportional to flow rate and pressure and inversely proportional to the efficiency of a system
The strength of an electrical signal is directly proportional to its frequency?
Hard to know what you mean by "strength". If you mean power, then the answer is no.
Why do you think as the voltage across a lamp changes the power consumption?
Because the power of a resistive component is directly proportional to the square of the voltage across that component.
