HARMONIC MOTION

The projection of circular motion on a diameter of the circle of such motion. Simple harmonic motion is produced if the circular motion is of constant speed. The combination of two or more simple harmonic motions results in compound harmonic motion.

FLOWMETER

A device which indicates either flow rate, total flow, or a combination of both.

HYPERBOLIC NAVIGATION

Radionavigation based on the measurement of the time differences in the reception of signals from several pairs of synchronized transmitters. For each pair of transmitters the isochrones are substantially hyperbolic. The combination of isochrones for two or more pairs of transmitters forms a hyperbolic lattice within which position can be determined according to the measured time differences

POLYMERIZATION

The chemical combination of similar-type molecules to form larger molecules.

NEUTRALIZATION NUMBER

A measure of the total acidity or basicity of an oil; this includes organic or inorganic acids or bases or a combination thereof (ASTM DesignationD974-58T) .

POWER UNIT

A combination of pump, pump drive, reservoir, controls and conditioning components which may be required for its application.

SUCTION LIFT
