Where hot wheel detectors are installed, the HWD scanners will be scanning trains for excessive heat caused mainly by sticking brakes. The HBD [hot box detector] computer will provide audible and visual indications of hot wheel alarm conditions.... Hot wheel detectors do not scan the bearing like the hot box detectors.

Fire-tube boilers may be designed for vertical, inclined, or horizontal positions. One of the most generally used types is the horizontal-return-tube (HRT) boiler. In the HRT boiler, part of the heat from the combustion gases is transferred directly to the lower portion of the shell. The gases then make a return pass through the horizontal tubes or flues before being passed into the stack. 2, record 3, English, - horizontal%20return%2Dtube%20boiler

The... horizontal return tube boiler... gets it's name from the horizontal fire tubes which run back-to-front through the lower half of the boiler drum. The gas burner is located under the front half of the boiler drum. The hot gases then pass to the rear of the fire box where they turn round and return to the front via the fire tubes and into the smoke box.(see this picture for a clearer description). 4, record 3, English, - horizontal%20return%2Dtube%20boiler

Pre-wetting is often [used] for staple spun yarns to make the sizing process more efficient. The warp sheet is passed through a box which contains hot water(temperature around 90 °C) and thus the waxes and other impurities are partially removed from the yarns...

In addition to inspections by employees, the condition of rolling stock is also checked using a network of wayside inspection systems(WISs) and wheel impact load detectors(WILDs) placed along the tracks. WISs include dragging equipment detectors and hot box and hot wheel detectors. WILDs measure the impact load generated by each wheel of a car and identify wheels with flats, and wheels whose running surface exhibits shelling or spalling, is out-of-round or is affected by an excess of metal. WISs are positioned at intervals of 10 to 15 miles on main tracks, and WILDs are placed at strategic locations. 4, record 6, English, - wheel%20impact%20load%20detector
