Force propulsive

This expression indicates that for a given delivered engine power and drivetrain efficiency, represented by the right side of the second equation, the propulsive force can be increased by turning the drive wheels at a slower speed. The transmission does this by altering the speed ratio between the engine and the drive wheels. [Pg.350]

As a vehicle turns a corner, the wheel on the outside of the turn must rotate faster because it travels farther, and the inside wheel must rotate slower than if the vehicle were traveling straight ahead. When the two wheels are only there to support the vehicle and not to deliver a propulsive force, this is not a problem because the wheels need not he mechanically connected. However, if they are drive wheels producing propulsive force from an engine, a way must be found to deliver torque to both wheels as they turn at different speeds, even though the input torque from the engine is supplied at a single speed. [Pg.355]

Wlienever anything is set in motion, there must be some type of propulsive force that moves it. Propulsion is a key element of many activities, including athletic events, recreation, transportation, weapons, and space exploration. This article explains the basic principles involved in any propulsion system, differentiates the types of propulsion systems, and discusses some practical aspects of propulsion. [Pg.965]

Before discussing the three categories of delivery device, the nature of the emitted aerosol will be considered. Droplet formation may be characterized in terms of the nature of the propulsive force and the liquid being dispersed, and this topic is dealt with for specific situations in the following sections. However, dry particles, which are delivered from suspension in pMDIs or from DPIs alone or from a blend, must be prepared in respirable sizes. The production of respirable aerosol particles has traditionally been achieved by micronization of the drug [25]. This... [Pg.487]

In the treatment of the kinetics of the electron transfer illustrated in Section 4.1, it has been assumed that the propulsive force for the electron transfer was the electrochemical potential E i.e. a quantity directly related to 4>M — < >s). However, since the solvated ions cannot enter the inner layer of the double layer (IHP), the true propulsive force should be < )M — standard rate constant, k°, and the exchange current, i0, should become respectively ... [Pg.46]

The mechanism of movement is attributed to the rupture of oxygen bubbles creating a propulsive force driving the PDMS boat forward at the air/water interface. [Pg.26]

Though the theoretical of black powder is less than that of single-base, doublebase, and AP-based composite propellants, black powder is useful for short-duration operation of simple propulsive systems. The advantages of the use of black powder are its low cost, its minimal deterioration with age, and simple regulation of the propulsive force by adjustment of the quantities used. [Pg.107]

Ducted rockets are intermediate between solid rockets and liquid ramjets in their propulsion characteristics. The propulsive force of soHd rockets is generated by the combustion of propellants composed of oxidizer and fuel components. Thus, no additional fuels or oxidizers need to be introduced from the atmosphere into the rocket motor. The momentum change of the exhaust gas from the nozzle attached to the aft-end of the combustion chamber is converted into the thrust for propulsion. On the other hand, the propulsive force of Hquid ramjets is generated by the combustion of a liquid hydrocarbon fuel with air introduced from the atmo-sphere.Ii] jjjg incoming air is compressed by a shock wave formed at the air-intake attached to the front end of the combustor. The air taken in from the atmosphere serves only as the oxidizer for the ramjets. The thrust is created by the momentum difference between the exhaust gas from the combustor and the air taken in from the atmosphere. [Pg.439]

The inability of the engine to produce a useful propulsive force at zero or low flight speeds necessitates the use of an auxiliary power plant to initially accelerate the vehicle to the required take-over speed of the ramjet. Such auxiliary power is also required for controlled landing of the vehicle. As a consequence the ramjet engine is not well-suited for conventional aircraft applications (with the exception of the helicopter) and the principal application of the engine appears to be further restricted to missiles or other similar vehicles of a one-flight expendable nature ... [Pg.530]

Propulsive Action (PrA) or Heaving Action (Propulsive Force). It was defined by the lateW.R. Tomlinson Jr, formerly of Picatinny Arsenal, as the ability of an expl or propellant charge to propel, or hurl matter or a projectile. This term has been used in industry to rate commercial expls and represents the same property as ballistic potential defines for propel lants. PrA is proportional to the "hot-gas-volume PrA = nRT, where n = gas volume per gram of the expl product at STP, R = gas cons-... [Pg.310]
