    Fiat – Controlled High Turbulence (1989–92, Fiat Croma CHT), StarJet engine, dubbed Port Deactivation (PDA), Variable Intake System on the 131HP 1.8 16V and on the 155 HP 2.0 20V Pratola Serra engine. Ford — Dual-Stage Intake (DSI), on their Duratec 2.5 and 3.0-litre V6s, and it was also found on the Yamaha V6 in the Taurus SHO.

  3. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

    The air intake (inlet U.S. [6]) is an aerodynamic duct extending from an entry lip to the engine fan/compressor. For supersonic intakes with variable geometry it is called an intake system, referring to the need for shock-wave and internal duct flow management using variable position surfaces (ramps or cones) and bypass doors. [7]

  4. Diverterless supersonic inlet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diverterless_supersonic_inlet

    Testing of the F-35 diverterless supersonic inlet on a modified F-16. The original intake is shown in the top image. The fundamental design of a gas turbine engine is such that the air flow-rate entering its compressor is regulated by the amount of fuel burned in its combustor.

  5. Inlet manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_manifold

    Carburetors used as intake runners A cutaway view of the intake of the original Fordson tractor (including the intake manifold, vaporizer, carburetor, and fuel lines). An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders. [1]

  6. Intake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intake

    For an automobile engine the components through which the air flows to the engine cylinders, are collectively known as an intake system [4] and may include the inlet port and valve. [5] An intake for a hydroelectric power plant is the capture area in a reservoir which feeds a pressure pipe, or penstock , or into an open canal.

  7. Cold air intake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_air_intake

    Some strategies used in designing aftermarket cold air intakes are: Reworking parts of the intake that create turbulence to reduce air resistance. [2] Providing a more direct route to the air intake by eliminating muffling devices. Shortening the length of the intake. Placing the intake duct to use the ram-air effect to give positive pressure ...

  8. Intake ramp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intake_ramp

    An intake ramp is a rectangular, plate-like device within the air intake of a jet engine, designed to generate a number of shock waves to aid the inlet compression process at supersonic speeds. [1] The ramp sits at an acute angle to deflect the intake air from the longitudinal direction. [ 2 ]
