Energy content of biofuel Energy content of biofuel The Energy content of biofuel is a description of the potential energy contained in a given biofuel, measured per unit mass of that fuel, as specific energy, or per unit of volume of the fuel, as energy density. A biofuel is a fuel, produced from living organisms. Biofuels include bioethanol, an alcohol made by fermentation—often used as a gasoline additive, and biodiesel, which is usually used as a diesel additive. Specific energy is energy per unit mass, which is used to describe the energy content of a fuel, expressed in SI units as joule per kilogram
Orbital replacement unit (HST) of fasteners). HST servicing mission 3A (SM3A) replaced (or added) 15 ORUs, e.g. it replaced the DF-224 computer with the "Advanced Computer". The electrical system of the International Space Station also has such subsystems that provide power generation, power distribution and energy storage. Orbital replacement unit (HST) An orbital replacement unit or orbital replaceable unit is a modular component of spacecraft that can be replaced upon failure either by robot or by extravehicular activity. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was designed with 70 such parts, including scientific instruments and limited-life items such as batteries. On HST some parts were designed
