What is a gas turbine cooled by?

It depends on the type of engine, but its generally one of a few things. A turbofan like on a commercial plane have the bypass, or large amounts of air flowing close to the out side of the engine. A higher temperature engine may have a heat exchanger on the turbine blades that actuall takes cooler air and passes it over the vanes so they don't melt. Almost every turbine engine has some sort of oil cooler to help keep the moving parts from getting too hot. With many turbines the idea is to more or less protect the engine from heat than to cool it down. More heat with a turbine means more power.


Why does a rocket require a rocket engine not a jet engine?

While they may appear to be the same type engine, a jet engine and rocket engine are two separate types of engines. A jet engine functions by pushing air backwards through the use of different methods (turbines, atmospheric pressure, etc.) while a rocket engine operates through the force of its exhaust pushing backwards, thus providing thrust in the opposite direction. In short, because a rocket engine pushes force backwards through its own exhaust, it is more efficient than a jet engine in lower atmospheric pressures or sometimes vacuums (such as in space) A jet, on the other hand, needs air. This is because it uses air as its medium of force and not its own exhaust. In relation to your question, a rocket uses a rocket engine because it is usually built for higher altitudes or escape from the earth's immediate influence altogether. It therefore has more need for an engine to match. They are also used by enthusiasts because they are easier, cheaper (depending on type) and (in comparison, but also depends on type) smaller to build. I hope this answers your question (but probably confused you more) Hopefully, someone else who understands this will simplify it for me, and correct possible mistakes.


Difference between diesel engine and old steam engine?

The main difference between a diesel and a steam engine is the diesel engine is an internal combustion and the steam engine is external combustion.

What does a fan do in a car?

The fan draws air through the radiator to cool the engine when the car is stopped when driving the airflow through the grille does the job it is the water pump that circulates the coolant in the engine most fans are equipped with a temperature sensing clutch so they just idle at highway speeds

What is maf?

On a vehicle it is a Mass AirFlow sensor. It measures the amount of air going into the engine.


Why do turbine engines use fuel to cool the oil in preference to air?

Because there would only be enough airflow to cool the engine while the aircraft was flying. When the airplane was on the ground before or after takeoff there would not be enough airflow to cool the engine properly.


Were is the air flow sensor on a 1997 Dodge truck with a 360 engine?

Do you run the air that your turbocharger blows out through your intercooler then to your throttle body or do you put a filter on one end of the intercooler and have the turbo breathe from it?

The normal direction of airflow is air filter to turbo, to intercooler, to engine.The normal direction of airflow is air filter to turbo, to intercooler, to engine.


Can the air mass flow meter stall car?

Most cars will not operate without their airflow meters. For example, Holden Commodore (Alloytech engine) You remove the connector to the airflow meter when car is running, engine shutsdown and will produce extensive error codes.


What is a engine temperature cooling switch?

The engine temperature cooling switch helps regulate the engine's temperature. Teemed with the radiator and incoming air, this keeps the engine at its optimal performance temperature.
