Air Wick is an American brand of air freshener owned by the British multinational company Reckitt. It was launched by creator Guy Paschal in 1943 in the United States , and is now sold worldwide. [ 1 ]
He also invented [43] the idea of the "jet wing", in which air from the compressor of a jet engine is bled off to large "augmented" vents in the wings to provide lift for VTOL aircraft. A small amount of high-pressure air is blown into a venturi , which in turn sucks a much larger volume of air along with it, thus leading to "thrust augmentation".
The turbojet is an airbreathing jet engine which is typically used in aircraft. It consists of a gas turbine with a propelling nozzle . The gas turbine has an air inlet which includes inlet guide vanes, a compressor, a combustion chamber, and a turbine (that drives the compressor).
Air fresheners from Febreze. Air fresheners are products designed to reduce unwanted odors in indoor spaces, or to introduce pleasant fragrances, or both.

Robert Goddard invented a pulsejet engine in 1931, and demonstrated it on a jet-propelled bicycle. [2] Engineer Paul Schmidt pioneered a more efficient design based on modification of the intake valves (or flaps), earning him government support from the German Air Ministry in 1933. [3]
