SOLENOID ENGINE VALVES - CV VALVE SIZING.
Solenoid Engine Valves
solenoid
- A cylindrical coil of wire acting as a magnet when carrying electric current
- a coil of wire around an iron core; becomes a magnet when current passes through the coil
- A solenoid is a three-dimensional coil wound into a tightly packed helix. In physics, the term solenoid refers to a loop of wire, often wrapped around a metallic core, which produces a magnetic field when an electric current is passed through it.
- The solenoid defines the packing of DNA as a 30nm fiber of chromatin and results from the helical winding of at least five nucleosome strands.
engine
- A thing that is the agent or instrument of a particular process
- A machine with moving parts that converts power into motion
- A railroad locomotive
- locomotive: a wheeled vehicle consisting of a self-propelled engine that is used to draw trains along railway tracks
- something used to achieve a purpose; "an engine of change"
- motor that converts thermal energy to mechanical work
valves
- A cylindrical mechanism in a brass instrument that, when depressed or turned, admits air into different sections of tubing and so extends the range of available notes
- (valve) control consisting of a mechanical device for controlling the flow of a fluid
- (valve) a structure in a hollow organ (like the heart) with a flap to insure one-way flow of fluid through it
- A device for controlling the passage of fluid through a pipe or duct, esp. an automatic device allowing movement in one direction only
- (valve) device in a brass wind instrument for varying the length of the air column to alter the pitch of a tone
- A membranous fold in a hollow organ or tubular structure, such as a blood vessel or the digestive tract, that maintains the flow of the contents in one direction by closing in response to any pressure from reverse flow

Tech. Sgt. Christopher Thompson, 660th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron hydralically opens the engine cowlings of the #2 engine of a KC-10 Extender. Once open he will change a directional control solenoid valve for a thrust reverser of a KC-10 Extender #2 engine, 40 feet above the ground at Travis Air Force Base, Calif. on April 18, 2009.
