2. Briggs & Stratton Vanguard Big Block V-Twin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Briggs_&_Stratton_Vanguard...

   The engine is a V-twin four-stroke, 895 cc (54.6 cu in) or 993 cc (60.6 cu in) displacement, fan-driven air-cooled, gasoline engine design.The larger displacement is achieved by increasing the stroke from 78 to 87 mm (3.1 to 3.4 in), but using the same bore of 86 mm (3.4 in).

3. Aircraft fuel system - Wikipedia

   Adding tanks and engines increases the complexity of the fuel system and its management. Additional features found in multi-engine aircraft are: Each wing tank often has its own electric boost fuel pump , and each engine has its own mechanical pump, replicating the fuel system described above for the single engine.

4. Briggs & Stratton - Wikipedia

   The Briggs & Stratton Gasoline/Electric Hybrid Car – In 1980, at the tail end of the energy crisis, Briggs & Stratton developed the first gasoline-electric hybrid automobile concept car. "The Hybrid" was designed by Brooks Stevens , had six wheels and was powered by a twin-cylinder 16 hp (11.9 kW) Briggs & Stratton engine and a large bank of ...

5. Flywheel energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flywheel_energy_storage

   NASA G2 flywheel. Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy.When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel's rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy; adding energy to the system correspondingly results in an increase in the speed of the ...

6. Hit-and-miss engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hit-and-miss_engine

   The fuel system of a hit-and-miss engine consists of a fuel tank, fuel line, check valve, and fuel mixer. The fuel tank most typically holds gasoline, but many users started the engines with gasoline and then switched to a cheaper fuel, such as kerosene or diesel. The fuel line connects the fuel tank to the mixer. Along the fuel line, a check ...

7. Self-sealing fuel tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-sealing_fuel_tank

   A self-sealing fuel tank (SSFT) is a type of fuel tank, typically used in aircraft fuel tanks or fuel bladders, that prevents them from leaking fuel and igniting after being damaged. Typical self-sealing tanks have layers of rubber and reinforcing fabric, one of vulcanized rubber and one of untreated natural rubber, which can absorb fuel when ...
