Jan 29,  · A manifold is a fluid or gas distribution system or device that serves to bring many valves into one place or a single channel into an area where many points meet.

What is a manifold on a car? There are two manifolds in a car: an intake manifold that distributes the fuel-air mixture to the cylinders and an exhaust manifold that delivers exhaust out the rear of the car. With wear and tear, manifolds can suffer from cracks and faulty gaskets.

In an older GM V6 vehicle, replacing the intake manifold may cost around $480-$650. Whenever an intake manifold is replaced, it's important to clean the mounting surface, replace the gaskets and torque the manifold bolts in the recommended order to the specs. This is especially important for a V6/V8 engine.

I will simply say “manifold” to mean “manifold with boundary.” All manifolds are going to be compact. A manifold is called “closed” if it is compact and without 

A manifold is a topological space that "locally" resembles Euclidean space. This obviously doesn't mean much unless you've studied topology. An 

In layman's terms a manifold is a geometric object that looks exactly the same, has exactly the same properties, no matter what tiny little piece of it you 

Oct 07,  · Manifold is an important part of the internal combustion engine. It's a thick metal pipe covering all cylinders in order to transfer heat and fumes between them. Usually, it has

Manifolds are used in underfloor heating systems to control the flow of water through the system to provide an even, comfortable warmth across the whole floor. The manifolds act as the hub

Mar 20,  · As others have mentioned, a manifold is a mathematical thingamajig that often has physical significance. Since you have tagged this as differential geometry, I'll assume you're talking about smooth manifolds.

Manifolds describe a vast number of geometric surfaces. To be a manifold, there's one important rule that needs to be satisfied.
