Ajouter "How do Airplane Engines Start? (Including Startup Sounds)"

How do aircraft fly? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKpvMPUKnQI How do jet engines work? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKUPEQYYwPk And did you know... 1. An important job of the ground crew is to ensure that on very windy days, the engine is orientated into the wind. A strong rear wind would turn the fan blades in the opposite direction, and if it's very strong, could result in a poor airflow through the engine. This increases the combustion chamber temperature which can burn out and shorten the lifespan of the turbine. This is known as a hot start. 2. The APU delivers air at around 45 PSI. That's similar to the pressure in a well-inflated mountain bike tire! 3. A lot of aircraft will also use a ground cart to start up. This is a motor which is substituted in instead of the APU to provide high-flow air to the engine. It's often cheaper to maintain and thus saves on maintenance cost of the APU. 4. For military engines, the requirement is a little more straightforward. You want to start your engines unassisted as quickly as possible. This is to ensure your response time to an emergency is at a minimum. A pilot might find himself in the middle of an airfield which quickly turns hostile. The F-22 uses a pressured cartridge to blast high pressure air onto the APU turbine blades. This kickstarts the APU and starts it much more quickly than an electrical motor. However this is only used in an emergency. 5. Many smaller business jet engines are also directly started using their electrical motor, which serves as the generator for on-board electricity once the engine is running. 6. Single-shot Pyrotechnic cartridges (also known as fireworks!) are used almost exclusively for expendable RPVs such as missiles or decoys which are started in flight and need no re-start capability. This is low weight and economical and starts an engine in less than 10 seconds. 7. It's also worth mentioning that newer engines are electrically started. For example, the GEnx and RR Trent 1000 engines on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner have electrical motors mountain directly on the engine shafts. This motor is powered by the APU and aircraft batteries. It reduces the overall weight of the starter system since the motor acts as the generator during engine operation, providing electrical power to the aircraft.
