The nickname pancake engine has been applied to several types of internal combustion engine, including: Avro Canada VZ-9 Avrocar jet engine; Detroit Diesel Series 71 (horizontal version) Electro-Motive Diesel#EMD 'pancake' diesels 16-184 and 16-338 engines; Nordberg Manufacturing Company radial diesel engine; Volkswagen air-cooled engine
These engines feature a vertical crankshaft and the cylinders were arranged in an X pattern of four cylinder banks in four cylinder rows. These were the 16-184 and 16-338 "pancake" engines. The 16-388 engine was 13.5 feet (4.1 m) from the base of the generator to the top of the air intake filter and 4 feet (1.2 m) wide.
A training manual is a document, a book or booklet of instructions and information, used as an aid to learning a task, skill, or job. [1] Training manuals are widely used, including in business and the military. [citation needed] A training manual may be particularly useful as: an introduction to subject matter prior to training
The YF119-PW-614 on the X-32 had a pitch-axis thrust vectoring nozzle and valves can redirect the engine exhaust and bleed air to provide direct lift, similar to the Pegasus engine on the Harrier. In contrast, YF119-PW-611 on the X-35 had a round axisymmetric nozzle that can swivel downwards while the low-pressure spool drives a lift fan that's ...
Turboprop, turboshaft and turbofan engines have additional turbine stages to drive a propeller, bypass fan or helicopter rotor. In a free turbine the turbine driving the compressor rotates independently of that which powers the propeller or helicopter rotor. Cooling air, bled from the compressor, may be used to cool the turbine blades, vanes ...
