Book Some Effects of Fin Leading edge Shape on Aerodynamic Heating at Mach Number 2 0 at a Stagnation Temperature of about 2 600 Degrees R

Download or read book Some Effects of Fin Leading edge Shape on Aerodynamic Heating at Mach Number 2 0 at a Stagnation Temperature of about 2 600 Degrees R written by William M. Bland and published by . This book was released on 1958 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three un-instrumented tapered magnesium fins with the leading edges swept back 17 degrees have been tested in an ethylene-heated high-temperature jet at the Langley Pilotless Aircraft Research Station at Wallops Island, Virginia. These tests were made to investigate some effects of leading-edge diameter and leading-edge shape on the aerodynamic heating by noting the time for melting to begin on the fins. Results of these tests, which were conducted at a Mach number of 2.0 for stagnation temperatures in the neighborhood of 2,600 degrees R, indicate that increasing the diameter of the cylindrical leading edge increased the time required for melting to start. This increase was greater, probably because of conduction effects, than that predicted by relating the time to melt inversely with the square root of leading-edge diameter. Also, the model with the flat-face leading edge lasted 1.39 times as long as the model with about the same size cylindrical leading edge.

Download or read book X 15 written by Dennis R. Jenkins and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2010-12-08 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The X-15 was the ultimate "X" vehicle. Built in the 1950s, she became the fastest and highest-flying winged aircraft of its time. During 199 flights from 1959 through 1968, she collected data about hypersonic flight that was invaluable to aeronautics and to developers of the space shuttle. This book describes the genesis of the program, the design and construction of the aircraft, years of research flights and the experiments that flew aboard them.-publisher description.

Book The Design and Engineering of Curiosity

Download or read book The Design and Engineering of Curiosity written by Emily Lakdawalla and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-27 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the most complex machine ever sent to another planet: Curiosity. It is a one-ton robot with two brains, seventeen cameras, six wheels, nuclear power, and a laser beam on its head. No one human understands how all of its systems and instruments work. This essential reference to the Curiosity mission explains the engineering behind every system on the rover, from its rocket-powered jetpack to its radioisotope thermoelectric generator to its fiendishly complex sample handling system. Its lavishly illustrated text explains how all the instruments work -- its cameras, spectrometers, sample-cooking oven, and weather station -- and describes the instruments' abilities and limitations. It tells you how the systems have functioned on Mars, and how scientists and engineers have worked around problems developed on a faraway planet: holey wheels and broken focus lasers. And it explains the grueling mission operations schedule that keeps the rover working day in and day out.

Book Advanced Combustion and Aerothermal Technologies

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here readers will find a summary of proceedings at a highly important NATO workshop. The ARW Advanced Combustion and Aerothermal Technologies: Environmental Protection and Pollution Reductions, was held in Kiev, May 2006. The workshop was co-directed by Profs. N. Syred and A.Khalatov, winners of the NATO Scientific Prize 2002, and was organized by the Institute of Thermophysics (Ukraine) and Cardiff University, UK. The primary workshop objective was to assess the existing knowledge on advanced combustion and aerothermal technologies providing reduced environmental impact.

Book Standing up for a Sustainable World

Download or read book Standing up for a Sustainable World written by Claude Henry and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-25 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has witnessed extraordinary economic growth, poverty reduction and increased life expectancy and population since the end of WWII, but it has occurred at the expense of undermining life support systems on Earth and subjecting future generations to the real risk of destabilising the planet. This timely book exposes and explores this colossal environmental cost and the dangerous position the world is now in. Standing up for a Sustainable World is written by and about key individuals who have not only understood the threats to our planet, but also become witness to them and confronted them.

Book Principles of Solar Gas Turbines for Electricity Generation

Download or read book Principles of Solar Gas Turbines for Electricity Generation written by Amos Madhlopa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book dedicated to solar gas turbines, providing fundamental knowledge and state-of-the-art developments in the field. A gas turbine is a heat engine in which a mixture of fuel and air is burned in a chamber that is an integral part of the flow circuit of the working fluid. The burnt gas mixture expands and turns the turbine, which can be connected to a generator for electricity production. Solar gas turbines offer an important alternative to conventional gas turbines driven by non-renewable, polluting fossil fuels such as diesel or natural gas. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the topic as well as numerous illustrations.
