Air Ionization in Air Breathing Plasma Thruster

Currently, air-breathing electric propulsion ramjet configurations are considered worldwide. However, configurations with air scoops suffer from significant momentum losses due to air collimation and drag. One idea that was proposed a few years ago and requires further development is a direct scramjet configuration that can significantly reduce drag. In this case, full ionization of atmospheric molecules is required.

High Speed Helicopter Variable Sweep Rotor Design

In the world of helicopters, very high speed is the Holy Grail. The aerodynamics of helicopter rotors limit the top speed of a conventional helicopter to about 285 MPH.

The primary reason is the advancing rotor blade tips airspeed must not exceed about 1,000 feet per second (Mach .

Zulu Pods Are the World's First Decentralized Lubrication System

Zulu Pods are the world's first decentralized lubrication system that combines the function of a reservoir, pump, and nozzle into a single, self-contained, hermetically sealed, packaged oil delivery system. The Zulu Pod is lighter, placed right in the working zone of the engine bearing or gear compartment, and meters the exact amount of lubrication for optimal performance.

AeroFeathers: 3D Printed Airfoils Inspired by the Quiet Flight of Owls

Excessive fan noise is prevalent everywhere, from noisy aircraft engines to annoying vacuum cleaners. The rise of drones or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has contributed to this issue, particularly in cities, due to their constant humming. The incessant fan noise of drones can cause considerable nuisance and stress, contributing to noise pollution. This, in turn,

A Ground Assisted Orbital Launch System

Introduction:

Calculations based on NASA's 'Simu' programs show that a single stage to semi-synchronous equatorial orbit, SSEO, with a 100% re-useable craft, propelled by clean, supercooled maglev launch boost, hydrogen/air turbojets, and hydrogen/air rockets, is feasible with a solar powered manufactory generating energy, and condensing, distilling, and storing, propulsion and cooling gases from the atmosphere.
