Porsche Macan- Indonesia Introduction: After serving the military for couple of years, the brand started its in house production with the launch of its first vehicle “Porsche 356”. Since then the brand has not stepped back and gained laurels by manufacturing some of the prestigious cars of the era. With the success of the Cayenne under the SUV roof top, the brand is out with a new model under the same segment- Porsche Macan. Introduced at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show and the 2013 Tokyo Motor…

It can be assumed that since World War 1 aircrafts have been a major, progressing, factor in not only the U.S. but all over the world. Over the century, aircrafts have helped transport anything from mail, people, animals, and even food, to different places all over the world. Flying has made transportation faster, easier, and all around better. Of course there has been a few mishaps along the evolution of flying but modern technology, a better understanding, and better training have brought the…

Many inventions have been made over the years including this one. The Bladed Bullet is a new invention used for the army. Throughout this essay, I will be explaining to you what the Bladed Bullet is and how it’s better than a regular bullet. This new invention has taken down terrorists and Communistic countries. You will learn many things about this bullet and how it must remain a secret to the American military. The Bladed Bullet will save lives and will help how wars go. The Bladed Bullet is…

Throughout history, the human species has sought numerous methods for entertainment. One such method of entertainment, Formula One racing, has remained at the top of European viewing. The pinnacle of all racing, Formula One consists of aerodynamic cars built for speed and defying laws of physics. Since these cars achieve such great speeds, an upwards maximum of 225.1 miles-per-hour as recorded by Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton in Mexico October of last year (Drivers 1), it comes as no surprise…

3407 was approaching Buffalo-Niagara International Airport. During the instrument approach, flight 3407 experienced ice buildup on the leading edges. Icey conditions coupled with poor monitoring of the airspeed lead flight 3407 to enter into an aerodynamic stall. Unable to recover, flight 3407 crashed into a residual home killing all forty-nine…

I like both of theses cars, but you always have to have favorites, my favorite out of these cars is the 1969 Boss 302 Mustang. The 1969 Corvette Stingray is also really cool. The Mustang has some qualities that I like that the Corvette doesn’t have and the corvette has some qualities that I like that the Mustang does not have. I like the 1969 Boss 302 Mustang more because I think it looks a lot cooler and I like cars that you just cruise around in. I also like how it has a little part below…

Wind Turbine EEI Discussion– Kate Richards To determine whether the number of blades on the wind turbine changes the amount of electricity or voltage produced, an experiment was carried out using a wind turbine, fan, retort stand, timer and voltage reader (appendix 8). A test for how much voltage was produced from a wind turbine with 4 blades, 8 blades, and 12 blades was carried out 5 times (appendix 2) (appendix 3) (appendix 4). This was repeated 5 times for each number of blades to ensure…

RESPIRABLE SUSPENDED MATTER (PM10) AT AGRA:- Instrument: Respirable dust sampler Principle: Air is drawn through a size-selective inlet and through a 20.3 x 25.4 cm (8 x 10 in) filter at a flow rate which is typically 1132 L/min. Particles with aerodynamic diameter less than the cut point of the inlet are collected by the filter. The mass of these particles is determined by the difference in filter weights prior to and after sampling. The concentration of PM10 in the designated size range…

the most money. The new curves and design of cars do just that. According to a New York Times article, “the [new] look has sprung from designers’ quest for improved aerodynamics, which are especially important in electric and hybrid vehicles.” Therefore, designers are motivated to accelerate the speed they work to find a more aerodynamic style, which will save drivers money. The old design of cars like the 1985 Ford Escort were primarily boxy and made with real chrome and steel. In result of…

size stators and rotors. The testing environment with in TURMA is safe enough to use various delicate instrumentation. The use of full size models also allows the rotor mechanical radial and axial clearances to be accurately replicated, and the aerodynamics to be analyzed accurately as well. Figure # : Turma Test Rig UTRC Blowdown Turbine/Fan Test Facility The blowdown research facility was intended for the aero-heat transfer study in just the turbine and fan section. The test rig uses a short…
