MIC in Hydroelectric Powerplants

CORROSION 2003, 2003
Abstract Four cases of corrosion in hydroelectric powerplants are reported. Pitting and crevice corrosion under deposits occurred on components made of martensitic stainless steels in river water at moderate chloride levels, which in each case was too low to fully explain the attacks.

Powerplant Pressurization for Altitude

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1967
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Aircraft cabin pressurization is a means of providing an adequate cabin environment while achieving the performance available from a supercharged engine. The Mooney M22 is a single-engine pressurized four-to-five place aircraft powered by an engine incorporating a small low cost exhaust driven turbosupercharger ...

Powerplants for Future SSTs

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1976
<div class="htmlview paragraph">In further studies of Advanced Supersonic Transport (AST) powerplants the relative merits of several different engine cycles have been compared. The influence of the noise levels which have to be met is shown to be a dominant factor on the design of both the powerplant and the aircraft.

Prospects for Alternate Powerplants

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1972
<div class="htmlview paragraph">The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1970 require that new model automobiles of 1976 and later meet stringent exhaust emission standards. The technical difficulties appearing in ‘Clean-up’ of the conventional automobile engine require that alternate engines be developed in the event that the conventional engine cannot ...

The Design of Helicopter Powerplants

The Aeronautical Journal, 1971
Over the past twenty years a large part of the activity of Turbomeca has been directed first to the creation and next to the subsequent development of propulsion units for helicopters.The use of the gas turbine brought with it a fundamental advantage—low specific weight which led to the exceptional expansion of this specialised branch of the aircraft ...

Powerplant: Fuel System

Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology, 1970
THE need to carry sufficient fuel in the smallest possible space and with the lowest possible weight dictated the use of integral fuel tanks in both the wing and the fuselage, despite the recognised difficulty of scaling tanks of conventional aircraft construction with complex shapes.
