The Museum and Art Gallery occupied an extended part of the Council House above the new offices of the municipal Gas Department ( which in effect subsidised the venture thus circumventing the Public Libraries Act 1850 which limited the use of public funds on the arts ). The building was designed by Yeoville Thomason.

Gas mantles are usually sold as fabric items which, because of impregnation with metal nitrates, form a rigid but fragile mesh of metal oxides when heated during initial use ; these metal oxides produce light from the heat of the flame whenever used.

Gas works would typically use oily bituminous coals as feedstock.

Gas oil refers to the original use of this fraction in the late 19th and early 20th centuries-the gas oil cut was used as an enriching agent for carburetted water gas manufacture.

A specialized type of gas-filled tube called a Gas Discharge Tube ( GDT ) is fabricated for use in surge protectors, to limit voltage surges in electrical and electronic circuits.

Gas metal arc welding ( GMAW ), also known as metal inert gas or MIG welding, is a semi-automatic or automatic process that uses a continuous wire feed as an electrode and an inert or semi-inert gas mixture to protect the weld from contamination.

Gas tungsten arc welding ( GTAW ), or tungsten inert gas ( TIG ) welding, is a manual welding process that uses a nonconsumable tungsten electrode, an inert or semi-inert gas mixture, and a separate filler material.

ca: Gas inert

Gas metal arc welding ( GMAW ), commonly called MIG ( for metal / inert-gas ), is a semi-automatic or automatic welding process with a continuously fed consumable wire acting as both electrode and filler metal, along with an inert or semi-inert shielding gas flowed around the wire to protect the weld site from contamination.

Gas tungsten arc welding ( GTAW ), or tungsten / inert-gas ( TIG ) welding, is a manual welding process that uses a non-consumable electrode made of tungsten, an inert or semi-inert gas mixture, and a separate filler material.

( PI: Vance Oyama, NASA Ames ) The Gas Exchange ( GEX ) experiment looked for gases given off by an incubated soil sample by first replacing the Martian atmosphere with the inert gas Helium.

Gas tungsten arc welding ( GTAW ), also known as tungsten inert gas ( TIG ) welding, is an arc welding process that uses a nonconsumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld.

The exhaust is, however, relatively low in NOx emissions, as combustion temperatures are lower than in other engines, and also because of some inherent Exhaust Gas Recirculation-EGR-in early engines ; the higher the combustion temperature is, the higher the NOx emissions are ( sir Harry Ricardo proved in the 20's that for every 1 % increase of the proportion of exhaust gas in the admission mix, there's a 45º F reduction in flame temperature ); this allowed Mazda to meet the United States Clean Air Act of 1970 in 1973 with a simple and inexpensive ' thermal reactor ' ( an enlarged open chamber in the exhaust manifold ) by paradoxically enriching the air-fuel ratio to the point where the unburned hydrocarbons ( HC ) in the exhaust would support complete combustion in the thermal reactor ; while piston-engine cars required expensive catalytic converters to deal with both unburned hydrocarbons and NOx emissions.
