Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Textbook of Aero Engines The Design of Aero Engines as well as aircraft has passed in a remarkably short space of time from the realm of empiricism and cut and try to the realm of a science with a wealth of data and established laws. In a large measure the transition was due to, and made pos sible by the advanced state of the many other arts and sciences with which nearly every engineer to-day is more or less familiar.

Download or read book Aviation and Its Future written by Charles B. Hayward and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aviation and Its Future: Instruction Paper Aloft, it is surrounded by perils, both from within and without. The close proximity of such a huge quantity of highly inflammable gas to the gasoline engines or other sources of fire renders its Opera tion risky, to say the least, while it is equally exposed to fire or explo sion through being out in an electrical storm, it being the general consensus of opinion that lightning, or an electrical discharge caused by the high difference of potential between the atmosphere and the gas bag and metal parts of the airship, caused the explosion which ended the lives of Oscar Erbsloh and his five companions in one of the German military airships in the summer of 1910. As explained under Wireless on Aeroplane and Airship, it is not necessary that the airship itself should be actually struck by lightning to bring about this discharge, although it offers a powerful attraction; its mere presence at a height where the atmosphere is heavily charged, being sufficient to create electrical discharges capable of setting fire to the gas or to the envelope.

Download or read book D Orcy s Airship Manual written by Ladislas D'Orcy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from D'orcy's Airship Manual: An International Register of Airships With a Compendium of the Airship's Elementary Mechanics Static aircraft derive their sustentation from a hull which is filled with a gas lighter than air; free balloons and airships consequently float in the atmosphere, like ships float on the sea, by virtue of buoyancy. The airship's sustentation is, unlike that Of the aeroplane, independent Of forward motion, in other words, the airship can stay aloft without expending engine power, in which case it drifts with the pre vailing wind like a free balloon. The airship is the outcome Of a century-long endeavor to endow the free balloon with inde pendent velocity whereby it would be able to navigate the atmosphere regardless Of winds in any direction desired; hence the now little used terms 0 navigable and dirigible balloon under which the airship first became known. The very nature of the airship' S sustentation, which permits to assimilate the airship to the ship Of the sea, sufficiently justifies the retention of the term airship and the condemnation of the term dirigible, ' the customary abbreviation Of dirigible balloon, which may reasonably be applied to the aeroplane too, Since it fails to specify the type of aircraft it is supposed to describe.
