Emmett Smith "Cyclone" Davis (December 12, 1918 – November 3, 2015) was a career officer and pilot in the United States Air Force, retiring as a colonel.He was an American and United States Army Air Forces fighter pilot in the Pacific of World War II and a jet fighter pilot with the Air Force in the Korean War.
In a conical system, as the rotating flow moves towards the narrow end of the cyclone, the rotational radius of the stream is reduced, thus separating smaller and smaller particles. The cyclone geometry, together with volumetric flow rate, defines the cut point of the cyclone. This is the size of particle that will be removed from the stream ...
Officials are assessing damage after Cyclone Chido devastated the island of Mayotte over the weekend.. The worst storm to hit the Indian Ocean islands in approximately 100 years, Chido's 124 mph ...
The 2023 South Coldwater Slide is a mudslide that occurred in May 2023 near Mt. St. Helens. The volume of debris, and subsequent destruction of a bridge, closed off Washington State Route 504 and access to the Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument .
This is due to how the Coriolis effect acts on high-pressure systems. Large, low-pressure systems , such as tropical cyclones , have cyclonic rotation . Small scale rotating atmospheric features, such as tornadoes , water spouts , and dust devils can have either anticyclonic or cyclonic rotation, since the direction of their spin depends on ...
Wright Cyclone was the name given to a family of air-cooled radial piston engines designed by the Wright Aeronautical Corporation and used in numerous American aircraft in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. Background
The Slide Cube Projector is a slide projector and system, manufactured and marketed by Bell & Howell, which was introduced in 1970 and marketed through the 1980s.The projector derived its name from its transparent cubical plastic slide storage magazine, approximately 5.5 cm (2.2 in) in each dimension (a bit larger than a standard 135 film slide mount), that held 36 to 44 slides, depending on ...
Figure 1 - Irrigated cyclone scrubber. Cyclonic spray scrubbers are an air pollution control technology. They use the features of both the dry cyclone and the spray chamber to remove pollutants from gas streams. Generally, the inlet gas enters the chamber tangentially, swirls through the chamber in a corkscrew motion, and exits.
