2. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Components_of_jet_engines

   For the engine optimisation for its intended use, important here is air intake design, overall size, number of compressor stages (sets of blades), fuel type, number of exhaust stages, metallurgy of components, amount of bypass air used, where the bypass air is introduced, and many other factors. For instance, consider design of the air intake.

3. Airbreathing jet engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbreathing_jet_engine

   The bleed flow, 20% at Mach 3, was returned to the engine via 6 external tubes to cool the afterburner liner and primary nozzle as well as to provide extra air for combustion. [30] The J58 engine was the only operational turbojet engine, being designed to operate continuously even at maximum afterburning, for Mach 3.2 cruise.

4. Cold air intake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_air_intake

   The intake snorkel (opening for the intake air to enter the system) must be large enough to ensure sufficient air is available to the engine under all conditions from idle to full throttle. The most basic cold air intake consists of a long metal or plastic tube leading to a conical air filter.

5. Diverterless supersonic inlet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diverterless_supersonic_inlet

   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. For supersonic flight the air entering the inlet also has to be regulated to a similar amount by the design of the entrance of the inlet ...

6. Velocity stack - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity_stack

   Short velocity stacks on a 302 cu.in. Ford FE engine in the tight confines of a Ford GT-40. A velocity stack, trumpet, or air horn [1] is a typically flared, parallel-sided tubular device fitted individually or in groupings to the entry of an engine's air intake system to smooth high speed airflow, and allow engine intake track tuning to incorporate pressure pulses created by its internal ...

7. Ram-air intake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram-air_intake

   Ram-air intake on a Kawasaki ZX-12R. A ram-air intake is any intake design which uses the dynamic air pressure created by vehicle motion, or ram pressure, to increase the static air pressure inside of the intake manifold on an internal combustion engine, thus allowing a greater massflow through the engine and hence increasing engine power.
