摘要: A new power plant cycle facilitated by an innovative vapor compression apparatus to repressurize the air vapor and generate renewable energy for heat input to the cycle. The new cycle can be used in place of the conventional low efficiency Rankine cycle or other cycles to provide economical production of electricity without air pollution. The new cycle can also be used on-board land-based vehicles, aircraft, and watercraft to power them electrically or mechanically, or be used in a package unit for supplying electricity and controlling temperatures of indoor homes, business, and other structures. The new cycle can be used in Ramjet aircraft applications.

摘要: A three-stream engine is provided. The three-stream engine includes a fan section, a core engine disposed downstream of the fan section, and a core cowl annularly encasing the core engine and at least partially defining a core duct. A fan cowl is disposed radially outward from the core cowl and annularly encasing at least a portion of the core cowl. The fan cowl at least partially defining an inlet duct and a fan duct. The fan duct and the core duct at least partially co-extending axially on opposite sides of the core cowl. A heat exchanger disposed within the fan duct. The heat exchanger provides for thermal communication between a fluid flowing through fan duct and a motive fluid flowing through the heat exchanger.

摘要: Herein provided are methods and systems for controlling an engine having a variable geometry mechanism. A pressure ratio between a first pressure at an inlet of the engine and a predetermined reference pressure is determined. An output power for the engine is determined. The output power is adjusted based at least in part on the pressure ratio to obtain a corrected output power. A position control signal for a variable geometry mechanism of the engine is generated based on the corrected output power and the pressure ratio. The position control signal is output to a controller of the engine to control the variable geometry mechanism.

摘要: Provided is a supersonic aircraft including: a shield that shields an engine exhaust flow discharged from a jet engine accommodated in an engine nacelle mounted on a fuselage of the aircraft to thereby reduce sonic booms due to the engine exhaust flow; and an exhaust nozzle that is provided in an exhaust port of the engine nacelle and that generates a sound source for high-frequency components at a position at which the shield is capable of shielding the high-frequency components of the engine exhaust flow, to thereby reduce jet noise having the high-frequency components, and promotes mixing of the engine exhaust flow that generates low-frequency noise components with an external air flow to thereby reduce jet noise having the low-frequency components.
