  3. Oldsmobile V8 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldsmobile_V8_engine

    In development, the high compression ratio combined with the charged load created problems with spark knock on hard throttle applications, which led Olds to develop and utilize a novel water-injection system that sprayed metered amounts of distilled water and methyl alcohol (dubbed "Turbo-Rocket Fluid") into the intake manifold air-stream to ...

    Such systems are usually of three types: Diagram of Gemini's launch escape sequence A solid-fueled rocket, mounted above the capsule on a tower, which delivers a relatively large thrust for a brief period of time to send the capsule a safe distance away from the launch vehicle, at which point the capsule's parachute recovery system can be used ...

    Hot water supply hoses are more likely to be rubber lined, and polyurethane external sheathing is common for all umbilical hoses and cables. [2] [3] A typical 4-part diver umbilical will also have a 1 ⁄ 2 inch (13 mm) bore hot water supply hose for the diver's exposure suit. A 5-part diver umbilical will also include a video cable to allow ...

    These had to be removed from the engine to avoid problems during engine handling and future firing, and the solvent trichloroethylene (TCE) was used to clean the engine's fuel system immediately before and after each test firing. The cleaning procedure involved pumping TCE through the engine's fuel system and letting the solvent overflow for a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_cleaner

    Train-mounted vacuum system for track cleaning (France) The performance of a vacuum cleaner can be measured by several parameters: Airflow, in litres per second [l/s] or cubic feet per minute (CFM or ft 3 /min) Air speed, in metres per second [m/s] or miles per hour [mph] Suction, vacuum, or water lift, in pascals [Pa] or inches of water

  9. Aerospike engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerospike_engine

    Comparison between the design of a bell-nozzle rocket (left) and an aerospike rocket (right) Instead of firing the exhaust out of a small hole in the middle of a bell, an aerospike engine avoids this random distribution by firing along the outside edge of a wedge-shaped protrusion, the "spike", which serves the same function as a traditional ...
