    Slapdown Before impact After impact 1 After impact 2 After impact 3. The additive, ICI's FM-9, a high molecular-weight long chain polymer, when blended with Jet-A fuel, forms antimisting kerosene (AMK). AMK had demonstrated the capability to inhibit ignition and flame propagation of the released fuel in simulated impact tests.

  3. 2012 Boeing 727 crash experiment - Wikipedia

    Slocum was the last one to leave the jet, three minutes before impact. Shanle then flew the jetliner by remote control, from the chase plane. [9] Aftermath at the crash site. Note that the cockpit broke off. The jetliner hit the ground at 140 miles per hour (120 kn; 230 km/h), with a descent rate of 1,500 feet per minute (460 m/min). [10]

  4. Jet (fluid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_(fluid)

    A relativistic jet emitted from galaxy M87, as seen by the Hubble Space Telescope. A jet is a stream of fluid that is projected into a surrounding medium, usually from some kind of a nozzle, aperture or orifice. [1] Jets can travel long distances [quantify] without dissipating. Jet fluid has higher speed compared to the surrounding fluid medium.

  5. Coandă effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coandă_effect

    To compare experiment with a theoretical model, a two-dimensional plane wall jet of width (h) along a circular wall of radius (r) is referred to. A wall jet follows a flat horizontal wall, say of infinite radius, or rather whose radius is the radius of the Earth without separation because the surface pressure as well as the external pressure in ...

  6. Joint European Torus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_European_Torus

    The Joint European Torus (JET) was a magnetically confined plasma physics experiment, located at Culham Centre for Fusion Energy in Oxfordshire, UK. Based on a tokamak design, the fusion research facility was a joint European project with the main purpose of opening the way to future nuclear fusion grid energy. At the time of its design JET was ...

  7. Torricelli's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torricelli's_law

    Experiment to determine the trajectory of an outflowing jet: Vertical rods are adjusted so they are nearly touching the jet. After the experiment the distance between a horizontal line and the location of the jet can be measured by the length adjustments of the rods. Every physical theory must be verified by experiments.

  8. Pratt & Whitney J58 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_J58

    J58 emissions were measured as part of the NASA Stratospheric Wake Experiment, which looked at the environmental impact of using afterburning jet engines for supersonic transports. An engine was tested in an altitude chamber at a maximum condition of full afterburning at Mach 3.0 and 19.8 km altitude. [28]

  9. Three-jet event - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-jet_event

    The Ellis–Karliner angle is the kinematic angle between the highest energy jets in a three-jet event. [2] The angle is not measured in the lab frame, but in a frame boosted along the energy of the highest energy jet so that the second and third jets are back-to-back.
