What else can I help you with?
Where did the word turbo come from?
Its short for the word turbine, as in a turbine driven supercharger.
What are the specifications of the Westland Wasp?
The Westland Wasp is a turbine powered, shipboard anti-submarine helicopter. Also a unique first generation jet helicopter made famous for being the first helicopter ever to be operated from (frigates and destroyers) and the first helicopter to disable an enemy vessel at sea. Is a naval vessel used for kits and landing in difficult areas
What is a turbine helicopter?
A helicopter with a jet engine. The engine is adapted to give power to a transmission, rather than thrust.
What are the parts of a engine in a helicopter?
The main parts are the turbine compressor and blades.
What engine is in widespread use as the source of power for helicopters it is linked by gears to the helicopter's rotors in a manner similar to the turbine-driven propellers on airplanes?
They're powered either by a gas turbine engine (known as a turboshaft), or some helicopters (such as the Robinson helicopters) still use internal combustion engines.
What is intermediate pressure turbine?
Some varieties of gas turbine engines (e.g. RR Trent and RB211) have 3 concentric rotating shafts. Each shaft connects a compressor with a turbine. The low pressure compressor, or fan, is driven by the low pressure turbine. The high pressure compressor is driven by the high pressure turbine. Between the low and high pressure compressors there is an intermediate pressure compressor and, guess what... it's driven by the intermediate pressure turbine.
What is TDBFP?
TDBFP = Turbine Driven Boiler Feed Pump
Is a helicopter driven by many people?
No Only One Person Drives A Helicopter But there is usual only 4-5 Allowed in the helicopter at the same time!!
What is a a turbocharger?
is a centrifugal compressor powered by a turbine which is driven by an engine's exhaust gases.
What is an amplydine?
A direct current dynamo with a major 'amplification'. Driven by a turbine.
How is gas converted into electricity?
By using an alternator driven by a gas turbine.
What is a helicopter powered by?
