Promotion at E3 2006. SOE markets EverQuest II not as a direct sequel, but as a "parallel universe" to the original EverQuest.It is set in an alternate future of the original game's setting, having diverged at the conclusion of the Planes of Power expansion (the lore is explained in an in-game book).
The Integrated High Performance Turbine Engine Technology program was a project of the United States military, DARPA, and NASA. Its objective was to conduct science and technology research that would secure advancements in the engineering of the gas turbine engines used in military aircraft. It ran from 1987 until 2005. [1]
Following an engine shutdown, a precautionary landing is usually performed with airport fire and rescue equipment positioned near the runway. The prompt landing is a precaution against the risk that another engine will fail later in the flight or that the engine failure that has already occurred may have caused or been caused by other as-yet unknown damage or malfunction of aircraft systems ...
Data from The Instrumentation Design And Control of a T63-A-700 Gas Turbine Engine General characteristics Type: Turboshaft Length: 40.5 in (1,029 mm) Diameter: 22.5 in (572 mm) Dry weight: 138.5 lb (63 kg) dry Components Compressor: 6-stage axial + 1-stage centrifugal compressors Combustors: Single can combustion chamber Turbine: 2-stage axial gas generator power turbine + 2-stage axial free ...
An attractively simple configuration making use of the free turbine is the propfan engine, with a rear-mounted unducted fan in pusher configuration, rather than the more familiar tractor layout. The first such engine was the very early and promising Metropolitan-Vickers F.3 of 1942 with a ducted fan, followed by the unducted and much lighter F ...
The propelling nozzle converts a gas turbine or gas generator into a jet engine. Power available in the gas turbine exhaust is converted into a high speed propelling jet by the nozzle. The power is defined by typical gauge pressure and temperature values for a turbojet of 20 psi (140 kPa) and 1,000 °F (538 °C). [18]
In addition to 3,000-shp output, the targets for AATE were a 25% reduction in fuel consumption (less than 0.347 lb/(hp⋅h), 211 g/kWh), a 65% improvement in power to weight (more than 6.5 hp/lb, 10.7 kW/kg), a 20% improvement in design life (more than 6000 hours and 15000 cycles), a 35% reduction in production (less than $650k per engine) and maintenance cost, and a 15% reduction in product ...
Engine compartment of a 1963 Chrysler Turbine automobile. The Chrysler turbine engine is a series of gas turbine engines developed by Chrysler intended to be used in road vehicles. In 1954, Chrysler Corporation disclosed the development and successful road testing of a production model Plymouth sport coupe which was powered by a turbine engine. [1]
