Electric power unit equal to one million watts

energy

A mechanism is a device that transforms input forces and movement into a desired set of output forces and movement.

energy

The failure or fracture of a product or component as a result of a single event is known as mechanical overload.

energy

Mechanical heat treatment is an alternative waste treatment technology.

energy

In physical sciences, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy.

energy

Mechanical efficiency is a dimensionless number that measures the effectiveness of a machine in transforming the power input to the device to power output.

energy

A mechanical drum brake or disk brake is used to stop turbine in emergency situation such as extreme gust events or over speed.

energy

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system.

energy

A measuring instrument is a device to measure a physical quantity.

energy

A measurement tower or met mast is a free standing tower or a mast, which carries measuring instruments with meteorological instruments such as thermometers and instruments to measure windspeed.

energy

Measurement category is a method of classification by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) of live electric circuits used in measurement and testing of installations and equipment, usually in the relation within a building (residential or industrial).

energy

Measurement is the quantification of attributes of an object or event, which can be used to compare with other objects or events.

energy

The mean radiant temperature is defined as the uniform temperature of an imaginary enclosure in which the radiant heat transfer from the human body is equal to the radiant heat transfer in the actual non-uniform enclosure.

MD
energy

The MD (measured depth; also along hole depth) of a well describes the length of the borehole, which is normally larger than the true vertical depth.

energy

A technique used commonly with wind turbines and photovoltaic solar systems to maximize power extraction under all conditions.

energy

A low-voltage network or secondary network is a part of electric power distribution which carries electric energy from distribution transformers to electricity meters of end customers.

energy

In meteorology, a low-pressure area, low area or low is a region where the atmospheric pressure is lower than that of surrounding locations.

energy

LLW includes items that have become contaminated with radioactive material or have become radioactive through exposure to neutron radiation. The radioactivity can range from just above background levels found in nature to very highly radioactive in certain cases such as parts from inside the reactor vessel in a nuclear power plant.

energy

A building that makes use of any of a large number of techniques to lower energy use.

energy

Low-cost country sourcing is procurement strategy in which a company sources materials from countries with lower labour and production costs in order to cut operating expenses.
