In Medlab, Sinclair identifies the woman as a Dilgar, a species that had previously gone to war against many non-aligned worlds, but had died out thirty years ago when their sun went nova.
The engine is double acting, [1] using both the expansion of the warmed air and atmospheric pressure overcoming the reducing pressure of the cooling air to do work. [3] [4] [5] The engine currently has no commercial or practical applications. The engines are built mainly as desk toys, physics demonstrations, and novelties. [2]
The aircraft is a single place, single engine gull-wing design with retractable conventional landing gear. The F4U was the second completed aircraft in the W.A.R. series, with the first example displayed at the EAA airshow in 1975. The aircraft featured folding wings. [3]
The US Rider-Ericsson Engine Company was the successor of the DeLamater Iron Works and the Rider Engine Company, having bought from both companies their extensive plants and entire stocks of engines and patterns, covering all styles of Rider and Ericsson hot air pumping engines brought out by both of the old companies since 1844, excepting the original Ericsson engine, the patterns of which ...
This one at least lasted 2–3 years but then was discontinued due to improper technical contrivances. Hot air engines is a story of trials and errors, and it took another 20 years before hot air engines could be used on an industrial scale. The first reliable hot air engines were built by Shaw, Roper, Ericsson. Several thousands of them were ...
The W.A.R. FW-190 is a half-scale homebuilt replica of a Focke-Wulf Fw 190 fighter. In July 1973, War Aircraft Replicas International of Santa Paula, California began design of an approximately half-scale replica of the Fw 190, the first of a series of replicas of World War II aircraft using similar constructional techniques.
The production run of 173,618 R-1830 examples [1] makes it the most-produced aviation engine in history. A further developed version, the R-2000 , was produced starting in 1942. The R-2000 was "bored-out" to 5.75 in (146 mm) and had a number of other minor changes to improve fuel economy and allow it to run at higher power ratings on lower ...
Manson-Guise engine Manson-Guise Engine drawing, based on GB2554458A Manson guise animation. A Manson-Guise engine is a simplified, albeit less powerful version of a Manson engine. It is a type of hot air engine, converting a temperature difference into motion. There is a hot side and a cold side to the engine.
