  2. Rolls-Royce LiftSystem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_LiftSystem

    the rear of the F135 engine (nozzle rotated down) that powers the Rolls-Royce LiftSystem. Instead of using separate lift engines, like the Yakovlev Yak-38, or rotating nozzles for engine bypass air, like the Harrier, the "LiftSystem" has a shaft-driven LiftFan, designed by Lockheed Martin and developed by Rolls-Royce, [3] and a thrust vectoring nozzle for the engine exhaust that provides lift ...

    The J85 and lift-fan combination was a precursor to developments which led to the first GE high BPR engine, the TF-39. [4] The lift fans were driven by turbine blades mounted around the periphery of the fan, with mass flow 13 times greater than the gas generators mass flow and increased thrust 3 times over that available using a propelling nozzle.

  4. Ducted fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ducted_fan

    Ducted fans are used for propulsion or direct lift in many types of vehicle including airplanes, airships, hovercraft, and powered lift VTOL aircraft. The high-bypass turbofan engines used on many modern airliners is an example of a very successful and popular use of ducted fan design.

  5. Lift fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_fan

    Lift fan is an aircraft configuration in which lifting fans are located in large holes in an otherwise conventional fixed wing [1] or fuselage. It is used for V/STOL operation. The aircraft takes off using the fans to provide lift, then transitions to fixed-wing lift in forward flight.

  6. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_(machine)

    Five-blade or six-blade designs are rare. The materials from which the components are made, such as brass, are important factors in fan desirability. A ceiling fan is a fan suspended from the ceiling of a room. Most ceiling fans rotate at relatively low speeds and do not have blade guards because they are inaccessible and unwieldy.

  7. Rotorcraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotorcraft

    Some rotary wing aircraft are designed to stop the rotor for forward flight so that it then acts as a fixed wing. For vertical flight and hovering it spins to act as a rotary wing or rotor, and for forward flight at speed it stops to act as a fixed wing providing some or all of the lift required. Additional fixed wings may also be provided to ...

  8. Helicopter rotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_rotor

    An advantage of quad rotors on small aircraft such as drones is the opportunity for mechanical simplicity. A quadcopter using electric motors and fixed-pitch rotors has only four moving parts. Pitch, yaw and roll can be controlled by changing the relative lift of different rotor pairs without changing total lift. [32] The two families of ...

  9. Annular lift fan aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annular_lift_fan_aircraft

    The annular lift fan concept uses two parallel annular fans counter-rotating about the central fuselage.(see plan view) The two fans are incorporated in an annular duct, separated by a baffle, but coupled by the gears in the baffle to counter-rotate and eliminate torque. During VTOL, the outer fan is driven pneumatically or mechanically by the ...
