It was spoiled now for seed, and it would sour and mold in three days if they failed to find a place and fuel to dry it.

This project was started at a time when there was a critical need for a high-energy fuel to provide an extra margin of range for high performance aircraft, particularly our heavy bombers.

`` There was only one power control -- a valve to adjust the fuel flow.

Terracing, however, was only extensively employed after Incan imperial expansions to fuel their expanding realm.

In January 1972, three months before the planned April launch date, a fuel tank in the Command Module was accidentally damaged during a routine test.

The rocket was returned to the Vehicle Assembly Building, the fuel tank replaced and the rocket returned to the launch pad in February in time for the scheduled launch.

As a response armour plating was added to aircraft to protect aircrew and vulnerable areas such as fuel tanks and engine.

Until recent years the Air Force suffered somewhat from fuel shortages ; a problem which was overcome in 2008.

A single MiG-17F Fresco that was also operated by the FABF did see combat service in the Agacher Strip War in 1985-86, but proved expensive to operate in terms of fuel, maintenance, and pilot training requirements.

Furze / aiteann was also used for the May Boughs, May Bushes and as fuel for the bonfire.

What fuel there was went to panzer divisions, and even then they were not able to operate normally.

This problem was solved by re-designing the fuel injector.

The Ministry of Transport was created in 1905 during the Presidency of Rafael Reyes under the name of Ministerio de Obras Públicas y Transporte or Ministry of Public Works and Transport with the main function of taking care of national assets issues, including mines, oil ( fuel ), patents and trade marks, railways, roads, bridges, national buildings and land without landowners.

If a 2, 000 ( lb / ac )/ year sequestration rate was achieved on all of cropland in the United States, nearly 1. 6 billion tons of carbon dioxide would be sequestered per year, mitigating close to one quarter of the country's total fossil fuel emissions.

The expected increase of fuel efficiency of the engine ( caused by the higher temperature, as shown by Carnot's theorem ) could not be verified experimentally ; it was found that the heat transfer on the hot ceramic cylinder walls is higher than the transfer to a cooler metal wall.

Climate also affects the supply of fuel for cooking ; a common Chinese food preparation method was cutting food into small pieces to cook foods quickly and conserve scarce firewood and charcoal.

William Aspdin's innovation was counterintuitive for manufacturers of " artificial cements ", because they required more lime in the mix ( a problem for his father ), a much higher kiln temperature ( and therefore more fuel ), and the resulting clinker was very hard and rapidly wore down the millstones, which were the only available grinding technology of the time.

It was suggested that fire suppression activities in southern California allowed more fuel to accumulate, which in turn led to larger fires ( in Baja, fires often burn without active suppression efforts ).

Many vehicles were destroyed or commandeered by militias, especially in the north and east of the country, and the fuel supply system was also badly affected.

Ireland had no significant sources of coal, the fuel of the time, and Dublin was not a centre of ship manufacturing, the other main driver of industrial development in Britain and Ireland.

Although officially classified as a torpedo boat in 1898 by the US Navy, the, a long all steel vessel displacing 165 tons, was described by her commander, LT. John C. Fremont, as "... a compact mass of machinery not meant to keep the sea nor to live in ... as five sevenths of the ship are taken up by machinery and fuel, whilst the remaining two sevenths, fore and aft, are the crew's quarters ; officers forward and the men placed aft.

The captains of the Dithmarschen class ships and Kriegsmarine warships and submarines were trained in transferring goods and fuel from the Dithmarschen ships to the warships / submarines at open sea, a most difficult operation that required considerable practice.

There is considerable variety in these compounds and only some of them are available to humans as a fuel source.

Direct injection has considerable advantages in two-stroke engines, eliminating some of the waste and pollution caused by carbureted two-strokes where a proportion of the fuel / air mixture entering the cylinder goes directly out, unburned, through the exhaust port.

After more development and considerable testing, this project was cancelled when the X-33's composite fuel tanks repeatedly failed.

Direct fuelling of petrol engines is rapidly becoming the norm, as it offers considerable advantages over port-fuelling ( in which the fuel injectors are placed in the intake ports, giving homogeneous charge ), with the only drawbacks being increase injector cost and complexity.

This meant that a considerable amount of fuel was being used just to heat the cylinder back to the point where the steam would start to fill it again.

A considerable portion of the head space is made to come in close proximity of the piston crown, making for much turbulence near TDC In the early days of side valve heads this was not done and a much lower compression ratio had to be used for any given fuel.

In the pulse jet engine the combustion pushes a considerable amount of the fuel / air mix ( the charge ) out the rear of the engine before it has had a chance to burn ( thus the trail of flame seen on the V-1 flying bomb ).

Fuel represents a considerable amount of the overall takeoff weight, and for shorter trips it is quite common to load less fuel in order to carry a lighter load.

This was exceeded by 24 kg, but as there had been considerable fuel burnoff between startup and takeoff, the total aircraft weight ( including fuel ) was within the maximum permitted take-off weight.

" Woodland management was considerable ", providing fuel for the kilns.

In response, Michael O ' Leary, the CEO of Ryanair, claimed Ryanair had made a considerable investment in environmentally friendly planes and technologies and had the lowest fuel use per passenger figures of any British airline.

The aluminium-based fuel in the C-14 engine generated considerable amounts of smoke.

The enormous fuel tank capacity caused a considerable difference in handling depending on the quantity of fuel on board.

It boasted a portfolio of over 80 patents, but generated considerable publicity for five in particular: an ultrasonic fluidic fuel system for combustion engines, an ultrasonic endodontics device, a " louvered television screen ", an ultrasonic meat tenderizer, and an ultrasonic dry cleaning machine.

Nafion has received a considerable amount of attention as a proton conductor for proton exchange membrane ( PEM ) fuel cells because of its excellent thermal and mechanical stability.

Pleeth, chemist for the Cleveland Discol company in Great Britain, writes: " The bias aroused by the use of alcohol as a motor fuel has produced results that are incompatible with each other ... Countries with considerable oil deposits -- such as the US -- or which control oil deposits of other lands -- such as Holland -- tend to produce reports antithetical to the use of fuels alternative to petrol ; countries with little or no indigenous oil tend to produce favorable reports.

MAPP gas is also used in combustion with air for brazing and soldering, where it has considerable advantages over competing propane fuel due to its high combustion temperature of 2, 020 ° C ( 3, 670 ° F ) in Air.

At the 1976 Italian Grand Prix he failed to qualify by a considerable margin, but subsequently he was promoted up the order when three other cars had their times disallowed due to fuel irregularities.

The need for fuel wood led to the hills being denuded for some considerable distance around town, timber tramways bringing freshly cut timber for the boilers.

They were, after all, designed for climbing hills, but perhaps the reasons were fuel efficiency, for they consumed considerable amounts of high quality coal.

It is likely that lighthouses would have required considerable labour for transporting the fuel and maintaining the flame.
