The drive train uses universal joints and a clutch.
There is only one electrical device in a standard automobile. It is the battery. All of the electrical system uses the same source. The battery is charged by a three phase alternator that is powered from the engine. In the back end of the alternator there is a full wave bridge system that changes the AC to DC. Voltage is the pressure in an automtive circuit.
no it has a stator charging system that uses a rectifier & volt regulator.
The 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora uses a standard 12-volt electrical system with an alternator that charges the battery while the engine is running. The alternator, typically rated around 105 amperes, generates electricity to power the vehicle's electrical components and recharge the battery. The system incorporates various fuses and relays to manage electrical distribution and protect against overloads. Regular maintenance of the battery and charging system is essential to ensure reliable operation.
Most automotive applications use DC, although the alternator is an AC device which uses a rectifier to produce DC. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_current
Marine engines are almost always based on an automotive/ industrial counterpart. They are marinated to have a cooling system that uses the seawater to cool them directly or indirectly through a heat exchanger.
The 2003 Honda Element uses mini fuses for its electrical system. Mini fuses are smaller than standard fuses but larger than micro fuses, making them a common choice in many vehicles from that era. If you need to replace a fuse, be sure to check the vehicle's owner's manual for the specific ratings and locations.
THere isn't really any connection between the alternator and the compressor except that they are both driven by the belt. The alternator generates electricity for the vehicle, and the compressor uses electricity to power the clutch that turns the compressor shaft. I can't think of any other connection. They don't actually work together as if they were part of the same system. The alternator system, and the AC system are two separate systems that do not depend on each other to function, other than the fact that the compressor uses some electricity for the clutch, but if the alternator stops charging, the car's battery would supply the voltage needed until it runs down.
The automotive system that uses universal joints and a clutch is the drivetrain. Universal joints are employed to allow for flexibility in the driveshaft, accommodating the movement of the vehicle's suspension while transmitting power from the engine to the wheels. The clutch operates as a mechanism to engage or disengage the engine's power from the drivetrain, enabling smooth gear shifts and control over the vehicle's speed.
I seriously doubt that any modern automotive navigation system uses gyro's. Just about everyone uses GPS, it's much more accurate and reliable.
