  4. Lift fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_fan

    Lift fan is an aircraft configuration in which lifting fans are located in large holes in an otherwise conventional fixed wing [1] or fuselage. It is used for V/STOL operation. The aircraft takes off using the fans to provide lift, then transitions to fixed-wing lift in forward flight.

  5. Turbofan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbofan

    An aft-fan configuration was later used for the General Electric GE36 UDF (propfan) demonstrator of the early 1980s. In 1971 a concept was put forward by the NASA Lewis Research Center for a supersonic transport engine which operated as an aft-fan turbofan at take-off and subsonic speeds and a turbojet at higher speeds.

  6. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

    An axial fan is a type of fan that causes gas to flow through it in an axial direction, parallel to the shaft about which the blades rotate. The flow is axial at entry and exit. The fan is designed to produce a pressure difference, and hence force, to cause a flow through the fan. Factors which determine the performance of the fan include the ...

    In 1983, ICAO established the special committee on the Future Air Navigation System (FANS), charged with developing the operational concepts for the future of air traffic management (ATM). The FANS report was published in 1988 and laid the basis for the industry's future strategy for ATM through digital CNS using satellites and data links.

  9. List of Nissan engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nissan_engines

    Nissan does not have a letter designation for the SOHC configuration so the camshaft configuration type is assumed as SOHC if no letter is present. Another example is the MR16DDT engine, which has feature designations that describe an engine with dual overhead camshafts, direct cylinder fuel injection and a single turbocharger.
