    The faster the bit rate of video clips, the better the quality of the video; however, the speed of your internet connection may limit the bit rate of the video clip. For example, if you have a 56kbs dial-up connection to the internet, you will be able to watch videos with a bit rate of 56kbs or less.

    Here, Mach 4 flow over a pitot probe is observed by schlieren optics in the Penn State Supersonic Wind Tunnel. The flow direction is left-to-right. The flow direction is left-to-right. A supersonic wind tunnel is a wind tunnel that produces supersonic speeds (1.2< M <5) The Mach number and flow are determined by the nozzle geometry.

    All modern air conditioning systems, even small window package units, are equipped with internal air filters. [citation needed] These are generally of a lightweight gauze-like material, and must be replaced or washed as conditions warrant. For example, a building in a high dust environment, or a home with furry pets, will need to have the ...

    If the unit had no variable geometry, there would be handling problems, because the surge line would be very steep and cross the working line at part-flow. During a slam-acceleration from a mid-throttle setting, the compressor working line will move rapidly towards surge and then slowly approach the steady state operating point, further up the map.

    The DC-10 used Honeywell's digital air data system in 1969 [13] and the F-14 CADC used on the F-14 in 1970 used custom integrated circuits. From the late 1980s much of the USAF and USN aircraft fleets were retrofitted with the GEC Avionics Rochester-developed Standard Central Air Data Computer (SCADC).
