Glossary ABSOLUTE TEMPERATURE ACCELERATION ACOUSTIC AFTERBURNER ALKANE ALLOY ANECHOIC ASPECT RATIO BOTTOM DEAD CENTER BYPASS AIR CARBURETOR CATHODE CERAMIC CHEVRON COMBUSTOR COMPRESSOR Temperature as measured on a scale in which the hypothetical lowest limit of physical temperatures is assigned the value zero (absolute zero), such as the Kelvin scale. The time rate of change of velocity with respect to magnitude or direction; the derivative of velocity with respect to time. Pertaining to the sense or organs of hearing, to sound, or to the science of sound. A device placed within, or attached to the exit of, a jet-engine exhaust pipe to produce afterburning. Any of a series of saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons with the general formula CnH2n+2. A substance composed of two or more metals. Neither having nor producing echoes. Equal to the square of the wingspan divided by the wing area. The point in the travel of a piston that creates the greatest volume in the cylinder. In a turbofan engine, this is the air that is pushed backwards by the fan that does not go through the core of the engine. A device for mixing vaporized fuel with air to produce a combustible or explosive mixture, as for an internal combustion engine. The electron-emitting electrode of an electron tube. It is the positive electrode. Any of various hard, brittle, heat-resistant, and corrosion-resistant materials made by shaping and then firing a nonmetallic mineral, such as clay, at a high temperature. A device shaped like an inverted ā€œVā€ that, when placed on a nozzle, allows jet exhaust to better mix with the outside air. The apparatus in a jet engine for initiating and sustaining combustion, consisting of the igniter, fuel-injection system, combustion chamber, and flame holder. A machine for reducing volume and increasing pressure of gases in order to condense the gases; in jet engines they keep combusted gases moving toward the rear of the engine.
