  2. Stall (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(engine)

    Stalling also happens when the driver forgets to depress the clutch and/or change to neutral while coming to a stop. [3] Stalling can be dangerous, especially in heavy traffic. [1] A car fitted with an automatic transmission could also have its engine stalled when the vehicle is travelling in the opposite direction to the selected gear. [4]

  3. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(fluid_dynamics)

    The most common stall-spin scenarios occur on takeoff (departure stall) and during landing (base to final turn) because of insufficient airspeed during these maneuvers. Stalls also occur during a go-around manoeuvre if the pilot does not properly respond to the out-of-trim situation resulting from the transition from low power setting to high ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalling

    Stall (fluid dynamics), in aviation and fluid dynamics, a sudden reduction in lift from exceeding a foil's critical angle of attack (such as when a plane climbs too steeply and slowly) Compressor stall, in jet-engine aviation; Stalling (gaming), obstruction of the flow of play while leading in a timed game; Pipeline stall, in computing

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staling

    Staling is a chemical and physical process in bread that reduces its palatability.Staling is not simply a drying-out process caused by evaporation. [1] One important mechanism is the migration of moisture from the starch granules into the interstitial spaces, degelatinizing the starch; stale bread's leathery, hard texture results from the starch amylose and amylopectin molecules realigning and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

    A compressor stall is a local disruption of the airflow in the compressor of a gas turbine or turbocharger. A stall that results in the complete disruption of the airflow through the compressor is referred to as a compressor surge. The severity of the phenomenon ranges from a momentary power drop barely registered by the engine instruments to a ...

  9. Dynamic stall on helicopter rotors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_stall_on...

    The effect of airfoil geometry on dynamic stall is quite intricate. As is shown in the figure, for a cambered airfoil, the lift stall is delayed and the maximum nose-down pitch moment is significantly reduced. On the other hand, the inception of stall is more abrupt for a sharp leading-edge airfoil. [8] More information is available here. [13]
