In front of each wheel is a nozzle that uses compressed air to spray sand, which is stored in two tanks on the locomotive. The sand dramatically increases the traction of the drive wheels. The train has an electronic traction-control system that automatically starts the sand sprayers when the...
These power-hungry monsters can do some serious damage. About 70 percent of our energy comes from non-renewable sources like oil and natural gas. When they're gone, they're gone for good. Also, some energy sources, such as the coal-burning power plants that generate nearly half of U.S...

It is typical for rocket plumes from vertical takeoff/vertical landing operations to apply physical pressure and heat flux to the landing and launch interaction surface, Jehn points out. Different rocket nozzles, orientations, and sizes will result in differing pressure and heat concentrations. ...
One more note: Gas inserts are very popular. You should have their flues inspected for animal infiltration and issues with the liner connections. Check the nozzle that injects the fuel regularly. These can get clogged or wear out. It’s easy for a professional to spot issues....
