13. Aircraft Performance In this chapter we will make the connections between aircraft performance and propulsion system performance. For a vehicle in steady‚ level flight‚ as in Figure 13.1‚ the thrust force is equal to the drag force‚ and lift is equal to weight. Any thrust available in excess of that required to overcome the drag can be applied to accelerate the vehicle (increasing kinetic energy) or to cause the vehicle to climb (increasing potential energy). Figure 13.1: A schematic of

An Accident A few years ago I received my dream car‚ a dark blue 1967 Ford Mustang with a 302 V-8 engine. Every time I turned the key I was able to hear that engine purr just like a kitten resting on your lap and could feel the glass packs‚ upgraded mufflers that cause the engine’s sound to amplify‚ rumble the seats and just add to that lovely sound that could be heard up to a mile away‚ which I’m sure the neighbors didn’t like. The best feeling I could have was when I was on the back roads far

I. LANDING GEAR SAFETY DEVICES Most airplanes with a retractable landing gear have a gear warning horn that will sound when the airplane is configured for landing and the landing gear is not down and locked. Normally‚ the horn is linked to the throttle or flap position‚ and/or the airspeed indicator so that when the airplane is below a certain airspeed‚configuration‚ or power setting with the gear retracted‚ the warning horn will sound. Accidental retraction of a landing gear may be prevented by

This research paper is concerned with the effect of the pre corrosion on the mechanical properties‚ fatigue life‚ microstructure and weight density of Aluminium alloy 8011. 3.5 % NaCl solution was used to pre corrode the Aluminium alloy 8011 specimens. The specimens were kept in the solution for 100 hours. After the pre corrosion various test were performed to study the effects of pre corrosion on tensile strength and fatigue life. Aluminium alloy 8011 is used in the production of fins of various
