jet compressor
1Gas-jet compressor — Газоструйный компрессор …
2Jet engine — For a general overview of aircraft engines, see Aircraft engine. A Pratt Whitney F100 turbofan engine for the …
3Jet engine performance — This article describes how jet engine performance is estimated during the design phase. Similar techniques are used once the engine has been built and is being tested, except the performance of individual components, rather than being assumed, is …
4Compressor stall — A compressor stall is a situation of abnormal airflow resulting from a stall of the aerofoils within the compressor of a jet engine. Stall is found in dynamic compressors, particularly axial compressors, as used in jet engines and turbochargers… …
5Jet engine compressors — As the name suggests, Jet engine compressors provide the compression part of the jet engine thermodynamic cycle. There are three basic categories of jet engine compressor:#Axial compressor#Centrifugal compressor#Mixed flow compressorAxial… …
6jet engine — an engine, as an aircraft engine, that produces forward motion by the rearward exhaust of a jet of fluid or heated air and gases. Also called jet, jet motor. [1940 45] * * * Any of a class of internal combustion engines that propel aircraft by… …
7jet engine — An engine based on Newton’s third law of motion that is, to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The engine takes in air, which is combusted along with fuel, and expels the hot gases at a very high speed. A normal jet or gas… …
8compressor — /keuhm pres euhr/, n. 1. a person or thing that compresses. 2. Anat. a muscle that compresses some part of the body. 3. Surg. an instrument for compressing a part of the body. 4. a pump or other machine for reducing volume and increasing pressure …
9jet pump — i. A form of a fluid pump in an aircraft fuel system that produces a low pressure by moving fuel at a high velocity through a venturi. A jet pump helps remove vapors from fuel before it enters a fuel control unit. Some of the fuel from the main… …
10compressor surge — A motion of the airflow forward and backward through the compressor, which is accompanied by available indications ranging from muffled rumblings to explosion(s) and vibrations. A rapid rise in JPT/EGT (jet pipe temperature/exhaust gases… …
