[10] [11] The Dyson V6 comes in many different models with varying tools and accessories, including the Dyson Fluffy hard floor roller motorised head, and its top of the range model, the V6 Absolute comes with full HEPA filtration and a 50 W main powerhead, giving 150% more brushbar power than the standard 20 W powerhead found on lower models ...
Dyson Limited, d.b.a Dyson, is a Singaporean–British multinational technology company. [7] Founded in 1991 by James Dyson in Malmesbury , England, the company designs and manufactures household appliances such as vacuum cleaners , air purifiers , hand dryers , bladeless fans , heaters , hair dryers , and lights.
The Dyson Airblade is claimed by its manufacturer to dry hands in 10 seconds and to use less electricity than conventional hand dryers. [ 1 ] The first commercially available high-speed, horizontal-wiping air dryer was the Mitsubishi Jet Towel, developed since 1991 and introduced in 1993. [ 3 ]
Sir James Dyson (born 2 May 1947) [2] is a British inventor, industrial designer, farmer, and business magnate who founded the Dyson company. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] He is best known as the inventor of the bagless vacuum cleaner , which works on the principle of cyclonic separation .
A free-turbine turboshaft is a form of turboshaft or turboprop gas turbine engine where the power is extracted from the exhaust stream of a gas turbine by an independent turbine, downstream of the gas turbine. The power turbine is not mechanically connected to the turbines that drive the compressors, hence the term "free", referring to the ...
A Variable Geometry Turbocharger [4] has movable vanes which direct the flow of exhaust onto the turbine blades. Actuators are used to adjust the vane angles. Angle of vanes vary throughout the range of RPM to optimize turbine behaviour. At high engine speed, vanes are fully open and the exhaust is fully directed onto the turbine blades.
Moreover, the extra inlet-cooling kilowatt uses less fuel than the new turbine kilowatt due to the lower heat-rate (higher efficiency) of the chilled turbine. Other benefits may include the incrementation of steam mass flow in a combined cycle, the reduction of turbine emissions (SOx, NO x, CO 2), [21] and increase in power-to-installed volume ...
The Douglas DC-8 (sometimes McDonnell Douglas DC-8) is an early long-range narrow-body jetliner designed and produced by the American Douglas Aircraft Company.Work began in 1952 towards the United States Air Force's (USAF) requirement for a jet-powered aerial refueling tanker.
