21Powered lift — A powered lift (also written powered lift) is a type of aircraft that can take off and land vertically but functions differently than a helicopter in horizontal flight.DefinitionIn the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has… …
22Translational lift — is the extra lift created/received when a helicopter s forward speed increases from the hover. It should be noted that if there is a steady wind (above 10 knots) a helicopter in the hover may already be in translational lift.It is created when… …
23I-Active Valve Lift System — (AVLS) is an automobile variable valve timing technology used by Subaru. It varies the duration, timing and lift of the intake valves by using hydraulic pressure to lock two sets of independent camshaft lobes together. This system is similar to… …
24suction lift — The vertical distance, in feet, from the liquid supply level to the pump centerline, the pump being above the liquid level. The suction lift should not exceed the recommended maximum limit and when viscous fluids are being pumped, they should be… …

26Angle of attack — In this diagram, the black lines represent the flow of a fluid around a two dimensional airfoil shape. The angle α is the angle of attack. Angle of attack (AOA, α, Greek letter alpha) is a term used in fluid dynamics to describe the angle between …
27Crane (machine) — A modern crawler type derrick crane with outriggers. The latticed boom is fitted with a jib. A crane is a type of machine, generally equipped with a hoist, wire ropes or chains, and sheaves, that can be used both to lift and lower material …
28Propeller — A propeller is essentially a type of fan which transmits power by converting rotational motion into thrust for propulsion of a vehicle such as an aircraft, ship, or submarine through a mass such as water or air, by rotating two or more twisted… …
