The heat transfer to the anode in free burning arcs is enhanced by a hot gas jet flowing from the cathode towards the anode with velocities up Af.

The transpiring gas ejected from the anode formed a jet directed axially towards the cathode below.

It was exposed to a high velocity gas jet.

Such items include tiles used in the Space Shuttle program, gas burner nozzles, ballistic protection, nuclear fuel uranium oxide pellets, biomedical implants, coatings of jet engine turbine blades, ceramic disk brake, missile nose cones, bearing ( mechanical ).

Diffusion pumps use a high speed jet of vapor to direct gas molecules in the pump throat down into the bottom of the pump and out the exhaust.

A second class of internal combustion engines use continuous combustion: gas turbines, jet engines and most rocket engines, each of which are internal combustion engines on the same principle as previously described.

Jet engines take a large volume of hot gas from a combustion process ( typically a gas turbine, but rocket forms of jet propulsion often use solid or liquid propellants, and ramjet forms also lack the gas turbine ) and feed it through a nozzle that accelerates the jet to high speed.

* Compression ratio for piston engines, overall pressure ratio for jet engines and gas turbines

Gas-to-liquids ( GTL ) is a developing technology that converts stranded natural gas into synthetic gasoline, diesel, or jet fuel through the Fischer-Tropsch process developed during World War II by Germans.

Carbon neutral fuel is synthetic fuel — such as methane, gasoline, diesel fuel or jet fuel — produced from renewable or nuclear energy used to hydrogenate waste carbon dioxide recycled from power plant flue exhaust gas or derived from carbonic acid in seawater .< ref name = MacDowell2010 > ( Review.

A carbon tax is a tax on the consumption of carbon-based non-renewable fuels, such as petrol, diesel-fuel, jet fuels, and natural gas.

Impulse turbines change the direction of flow of a high velocity fluid or gas jet.

This has tended to limit their use in jet engines and gas turbines to the stator ( stationary ) blades.

The Lustre Chantant or musical lamp, invented by Frederik Kastner, was a large chandelier with glass pipes of varying lengths each illuminated and heated by an individual gas jet.

However, the air cycle machine is very common on gas turbine-powered jet aircraft as cooling and ventilation units, because compressed air is readily available from the engines ' compressor sections.

Other methods of refrigeration include the air cycle machine used in aircraft ; the vortex tube used for spot cooling, when compressed air is available ; and thermoacoustic refrigeration using sound waves in a pressurized gas to drive heat transfer and heat exchange ; steam jet cooling popular in the early 1930s for air conditioning large buildings ; thermoelastic cooling using a smart metal alloy stretching and relaxing.

* 1678: Ferdinand Verbiest built a model carriage relying on a steam jet for power. Sketch of John Barber's gas turbine, from his patent

In 1930, having found no interest from the RAF for his idea, Frank Whittle patented the design for a centrifugal gas turbine for jet propulsion.

Diagram of a gas turbine jet engine

Airbreathing jet engines are gas turbines optimized to produce thrust from the exhaust gases, or from ducted fans connected to the gas turbines.

The only way Fiedler could get back to earth alive was to fly the pulse jet missile and land it on the airstrip.

Still more time was consumed while the pilot, at the radioed suggestion of Continental president Robert Six, tried to persuade the armed pair to swap the Boeing jet for a propeller-driven Douglas Aj.

** Atlas Carver, a South African military jet development project that was cancelled in the 1990s

By the 1950s, the development of civil jets grew, beginning with the de Havilland Comet, though the first widely-used passenger jet was the Boeing 707, because it was much more economical than other planes at the time.

The product line was broad and came to include ammunition, grenades, mines, armored personnel vehicles, patrol boats, navy patrol planes, turboprop trainers, tanks, and subsonic jet fighters.

Embraer was privatized in December 1994, and despite significant financial difficulties, it rolled out the new jet commuter plane prototype EMB-145 in 1995.

In an early " good-will " gesture that was later heavily criticised, the Attlee government allowed the Soviets access, under the terms of a 1946 UK-USSR Trade Agreement, to several Rolls-Royce Nene jet engines.

Glebe cairn in Kilmartin Glen in Argyll dates from 1700 BC and has two stone cists inside one of which a jet necklace was found during 19th century excavations.

FBI agents, state troopers, sheriff's deputies, and Reno police surrounded the jet, as it had not yet been determined with certainty that Cooper was no longer aboard ; but an armed search quickly confirmed that he was gone.

Designed by Ken and Lew Norris, the Bluebird K7 was an all-metal jet-propelled 3-point hydroplane with a Metropolitan-Vickers Beryl jet engine producing of thrust.

Campbell's land record was short-lived, because rule changes meant that Craig Breedlove's Spirit of America, a pure jet car, would begin setting records later in 1964 and 1965.

Bluebird K7 was fitted with a lighter and more powerful Bristol Orpheus engine, taken from a Folland Gnat jet aircraft, which developed of thrust.

Another possible cause was a cut-out of the jet engine caused by fuel starvation.

Mrs. Bowles is a single mother who was married three times — her first husband divorced her, her second one died in a jet accident, and her third one committed suicide by shooting himself in the head — and has two children who don't like or even respect her ( which stems from her permissive, often negligent and abusive parenting — Mrs. Bowles brags that her kids beat her up and she's glad that she can hit back ).

Guyana Airways Corporation was therefore obliged to fill the breach by commencing jet operations to Miami, New York and Toronto.

According to his son, he did not fly combat missions during the Korean War, because he was recruited by the CIA for his outstanding record in single engine jet aircraft.

A total of 8 had been launched ; one missile hit a MiG-19 jet fighter sent to intercept the U-2, but which was unable to reach a high enough altitude.

In the early 1950s an English couple built a hydrofoil water craft called the White Hawk that was jet powered in an attempt to beat the absolute water speed record.

The engine was intended to switch from jet propulsion to pure rocket propulsion at 26 – 32 km high, by which time the craft would be travelling at Mach 5 to 7.

Steam just above atmospheric pressure ( all that the boiler could stand ) was introduced into the lower half of the cylinder beneath the piston during the gravity-induced upstroke ; the steam was then condensed by a jet of cold water injected into the steam space to produce a partial vacuum ; the pressure differential between the atmosphere and the vacuum on either side of the piston displaced it downwards into the cylinder, raising the opposite end of a rocking beam to which was attached a gang of gravity-actuated reciprocating force pumps housed in the mineshaft.

The configuration of K7 at high speed meant that the thrust of the jet engine provided a downward pressure at the bows of the boat.

In the jet engine, for instance, the fuel is used only to produce energy, the working mass is provided from the air that the jet aircraft flies through.

To travel between stars in a reasonable time using rocket-like technology requires very high effective exhaust velocity exhaust jet, and enormous energy to power this, such as might be provided by fusion power or antimatter.

Early post-war designs were based on domestic works as well as captured German jet fighters and information provided by Britain or the US.

Along with the release of these terrorists, Movement 2 June also indicated that a jet must be provided to fly the radicals from prison, and 9, 000 Deutsch Marks should be given to the terrorists.

On the same day, Milorad Dodik, Prime Minister of Republika Srpska, provided an RS government jet to pick up Plavšić and welcomed her to Belgrade after her early release from a Swedish prison.

The last mainline air service was provided by American Airlines which operated McDonnell Douglas MD-80 jet service to Dallas / Fort Worth International Airport from 1984 until 1999.

All Continental Connection service was provided using piston-engine or turboprop aircraft, in contrast to Continental Express, whose flights were operated by Continental's regional jet partners, ExpressJet Airlines and Chautauqua Airlines.

The last major airline jet service for the airport was provided by Continental Airlines utilizing Boeing 737-300, Boeing 737-500 and McDonnell Douglas MD-80 jetliners with flights to Houston before this air carrier ( which now operates as United Airlines ) turned over all passenger service to its regional airline partners.

Previously, the only mainline jet aircraft type serving Lafayette ( following the cessation of Continental Airlines mainline jet service ) was the twice weekly McDonnell Douglas MD-80 service provided by Allegiant Air nonstop to and from Las Vegas before this service was canceled as well.

The impetus is provided not by gunpowder, but by either a spring or jet of compressed air.

Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, he made increasingly eccentric demands: he said he would pull a Boeing 747 down the tarmac provided Boeing gave him a jet for his own personal use, and he approached Don King saying that he would do a fight film for one million dollars.

The airport also had scheduled passenger jet service provided by no less than five airlines at different times over the years.
