  2. Vacuum ejector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_Ejector

    A vacuum ejector, or simply ejector, or aspirator, is a type of vacuum pump, which produces vacuum by means of the Venturi effect.. In an ejector, a working fluid (liquid or gaseous) flows through a jet nozzle into a tube that first narrows and then expands in cross-sectional area.

  3. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

    Hydraulic pumps can also be used to start some engines through gears. The pumps are electrically controlled on the ground. A variation of this is the APU installed in a Boeing F/A-18 Hornet; it is started by a hydraulic motor, which itself receives energy stored in an accumulator.

  4. Injector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injector

    It is a fluid-dynamic pump with no moving parts except a valve to control inlet flow. Depending on the application, an injector can also take the form of an eductor-jet pump, a water eductor or an aspirator. An ejector operates on similar principles to create a vacuum feed connection for braking systems etc.

  5. Garrett TFE731 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garrett_TFE731

    The Garrett TFE731 (now Honeywell TFE731) is a family of geared turbofan engines commonly used on business jet aircraft. Garrett AiResearch originally designed and built the engine, which due to mergers was later produced by AlliedSignal and now Honeywell Aerospace.

  6. Venturi scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venturi_scrubber

    Figure 1 - Venturi scrubber Ejector venturi scrubber. A venturi scrubber is designed to effectively use the energy from a high-velocity inlet gas stream to atomize the liquid being used to scrub the gas stream. This type of technology is a part of the group of air pollution controls collectively referred to as wet scrubbers.

  7. Diffusion pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_pump

    An oil diffusion pump is used to achieve higher vacuum (lower pressure) than is possible by use of positive displacement pumps alone. Although its use has been mainly associated within the high-vacuum range, down to 1 × 10 −9 mbar (1 × 10 −7 Pa), diffusion pumps today can produce pressures approaching 1 × 10 −10 mbar (1 × 10 −8 Pa) when properly used with modern fluids and accessories.

  8. Aircraft fuel system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_fuel_system

    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. In case of single-engine operation, there is often a method incorporated to "cross-feed" the engine (left tank feeding right engine, or vice versa).

  9. Ejection seat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ejection_seat

    Various ejection seats. In aircraft, an ejection seat or ejector seat is a system designed to rescue the pilot or other crew of an aircraft (usually military) in an emergency. . In most designs, the seat is propelled out of the aircraft by an explosive charge or rocket motor, carrying the pilot with
