    Contra-rotating propellers Contra-rotating propellers on the Rolls-Royce Griffon-powered P-51XR Mustang Precious Metal at the 2014 Reno Air Races. Aircraft equipped with contra-rotating propellers (CRP) [1] coaxial contra-rotating propellers, or high-speed propellers, apply the maximum power of usually a single piston engine or turboprop engine to drive a pair of coaxial propellers in contra ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McKendree_cylinder

    Like the O'Neill cylinder, McKendree proposed dedicating half of the surface of the colony to windows, allowing direct illumination of the interior. [1] The habitat would be composed of a pair of counter-rotating cylinders which would function like momentum wheels to control the habitat's orientation. [1]

  4. Counter-rotating propellers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-rotating_propellers

    Counter-rotating propellers (CRP) are propellers which turn in opposite directions to each other. [1] They are used on some twin- and multi-engine propeller-driven aircraft. The propellers on most conventional twin-engined aircraft turn clockwise (as viewed from behind the engine). Counter-rotating propellers generally turn clockwise on the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw-propelled_vehicle

    A screw-propelled vehicle A screw-propelled vehicle is a land or amphibious vehicle designed to cope with difficult terrain, such as snow, ice, mud, and swamp. Such vehicles are distinguished by being moved by the rotation of one or more auger-like cylinders fitted with a helical flange that engages with the medium through or over which the vehicle is moving. They have been called Archimedes ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contra-rotating

    Contra-rotating, also referred to as coaxial contra-rotating, is a technique whereby parts of a mechanism rotate in opposite directions about a common axis, usually to minimise the effect of torque. Examples include some aircraft propellers , resulting in the maximum power of a single piston or turboprop engine to drive two propellers in ...

    The Coax-P is a contra-rotating propeller developed by NeuraJet of Senftenbach, Austria and Sun Flightcraft of Innsbruck, Austria for the Rotax 503 and Rotax 582 aircraft engines for use on ultralight aircraft. [1] [2]

  9. Balance shaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_shaft

    The counter balance shafts have eccentric weights and rotate in opposite direction to each other, which generates a net vertical force. The balance shaft was invented and patented by British engineer Frederick W. Lanchester in 1907. [1] [2] It is most commonly used in inline-four and V6 engines used in automobiles and motorcycles.
