English: A diagram showing the airflow through the nacelle of the SR71 Blackbird as the speed increases from zero to Mach 3.2. This image is based on Figure 1.21 from the SR-71 Flight Manual. Русский: Схема движения воздушных потоков в мотогондоле самолёта Lockheed SR-71 при ...
An airflow window is composed of at least two panes of glass and a cavity between them that allows the flow of ventilation air. They operate on similar principles to a double-skin facade, but on a smaller scale. [1] [2] The general idea is to improve the energy efficiency of a cavity window by heating or cooling the cavity with ventilation air.
Displacement ventilation systems supply air directly to the occupied zone.The air is supplied at low velocities to cause minimal induction and mixing. This system is used for ventilation and cooling of large high spaces, such as auditorium and atria, where energy may be saved if only the occupied zone is treated rather than trying to control the conditions in the entire space.
The airtightness of a building is often expressed in terms of the leakage airflow rate through the building's envelope at a given reference pressure (usually 50 pascal) [10] divided by the: Heated building volume V. At 50·Pa, it is called the air change rate at 50 Pa and usually noted n 50 (units: h −1). [13] [14] Envelope area A E.
A leading-edge slot on a STOL aircraft. A leading-edge slot is a fixed aerodynamic feature of the wing of some aircraft to reduce the stall speed and promote good low-speed handling qualities. A leading-edge slot is a spanwise gap in each wing, allowing air to flow from below the wing to its upper surface.
Internal aerodynamics is the study of flow through passages in solid objects. For instance, internal aerodynamics encompasses the study of the airflow through a jet engine or through an air conditioning pipe. Aerodynamic problems can also be classified according to whether the flow speed is below, near or above the speed of sound.
The relationship between pressure and leakage air flow rate is defined by the power law model between the airflow rate and the pressure difference across the ductwork envelope as follows: q L =C L ∆p n. where: q L is the volumetric leakage airflow rate expressed in L.s −1; C L is the air leakage coefficient expressed in L.s −1.Pa −n
The original designs were in the form of a fixed slot near the leading edge of the wing, a design that was used on a number of STOL aircraft. During World War II, German aircraft commonly fitted a more advanced version of the slat that reduced drag by being pushed back flush against the leading edge of the wing by air pressure , popping out ...
