Argus 115 Hp
The Argus 115 hp aircraft engine from 1913 was a six-cylinder, water cooled inline engine built by the German Argus Motoren company. Design and development The Argus 115 hp engine was a development from the earlier Argus 110 hp engine of 1912. It featured an increased bore of and a stroke of . In early 1913 the engine was already available and was said to deliver up to at 1,400 rpm.Huth, 1914, pp. 69-73 The normal speed of the engine has been reported as 1,350 rpm.Joachimczyk, 1914, pp. 538-540 Relative to the Argus 110 hp engine the main improvement besides the increased bore appears to be the introduction of a second magneto. To achieve this, the arrangement of the external engine components had been changed, with the water pump, now on the left side of the engine, directly coupled with one of the magnetos. The second magneto was driven via spur gears from the crankshaft and was located on the right hand side of the engine. The oil pump also had been relocated, no ...

WikiProject Aircraft
A WikiProject, or Wikiproject, is a Wikimedia movement affinity group for contributors with shared goals. WikiProjects are prevalent within the largest wiki, Wikipedia, and exist to varying degrees within sister projects such as Wiktionary, Wikiquote, Wikidata, and Wikisource. They also exist in different languages, and translation of articles is a form of their collaboration. During the COVID-19 pandemic, CBS News noted the role of Wikipedia's WikiProject Medicine in maintaining the accuracy of articles related to the disease. Another WikiProject that has drawn attention is WikiProject Women Scientists, which was profiled by '' Smithsonian'' for its efforts to improve coverage of women scientists which the profile noted had "helped increase the number of female scientists on Wikipedia from around 1,600 to over 5,000".

Berlin-Adlershof
Adlershof (, literally "Eagle's Court") is a locality (') in the borough (') Treptow-Köpenick of Berlin, Germany. Adlershof is home to the new City of Science, Technology and Media ( WISTA), located on the southwestern edge of the locality. History A part of the area known today as the "City of Science, Technology and Media", was once known as the Johannisthal Air Field. Germany's first motorized aircraft took off from here at the beginning of the 20th century. Albatros, Fokker, Rumpler and Wright made Adlershof-Johannisthal famous. In 1912 the German Experimental Institute for Aviation (Deutsche Versuchsanstalt für Luftfahrt – DVL) made Adlershof its headquarters. Laboratories, motor test beds, wind tunnels and hangars were erected in the 20s and 30s and are historical landmarks today. World War I Adlershof is particularly well known for a series of competitions between various aviation firms' fighter aircraft designs that were held there starting in 1918. This was the first ...

Salmson 2M7
The Salmson water-cooled aero-engines, produced in France by Société des Moteurs Salmson from 1908 until 1920, were a series of pioneering aero-engines: unusually combining water-cooling with the radial arrangement of their cylinders. History Henri Salmson, a manufacturer of water pumps, was engaged by Georges Marius Henri-Georges Canton and Pierre Unné, a pair of Swiss engineers, to produce engines to their design. Their initial efforts were on barrel engines, but these failed to meet expectations due to low reliability and high fuel consumption caused by internal friction. A new 7-cylinder water-cooled radial design was then developed by Canton and Unné. The range was expanded to produce 9-cylinder models, and also two-row 14-cylinder and 18-cylinder engines. By 1912 the Salmson A9 was producing around 120 brake horsepower; while competitive with rival designs from French companies, Salmson, Canton and Unné decided to develop more powerful engines as their rivals wer ...

Sikorsky Ilya Muromets
The Sikorsky ''Ilya Muromets'' (russian: Сикорский Илья Муромец) (Sikorsky S-22, S-23, S-24, S-25, S-26 and S-27) were a class of Russian pre-World War I large four-engine commercial airliners and military heavy bombers used during World War I by the Russian Empire. The aircraft series was named after Ilya Muromets, a hero from Slavic mythology.Lake 2002, p. 31. The series was based on the Sikorsky Russky Vityaz, Russky Vityaz or Le Grand, the world's first four-engined aircraft, designed by Igor Sikorsky. The Ilya Muromets aircraft as it appeared in 1913 was a revolutionary design, intended for commercial service with its spacious fuselage incorporating a passenger saloon and washroom on board. The Ilya Muromets was the world's first multi-engine aircraft in production and at least sixty were built.Sikorsky 1938, p. 96. During World War I, it became the first four-engine bomber to equip a dedicated strategic bombing unit.Massenkov et al. 1994, p. 23. This ...

LVG B
Luftverkehrsgesellschaft m.b.H. (L.V.G. or LVG) was a German aircraft manufacturer based in Berlin- Johannisthal, which began constructing aircraft in 1912, building Farman-type aircraft. The company constructed many reconnaissance and light bomber biplanes during World War I. The raid on London in 1916 was conducted by one LVG C.IV.

Argus As I
The Argus As I was a four-cylinder, water-cooled, aircraft engine produced in Germany by Argus Motoren from 1911 until about 1913. The engine saw widespread use in aircraft in pre-war Germany and initially was also sold under the brand name 'Aviatik' of the Automobil und Aviatik AG.''Aviatik-Flugzeuge'', 1911, pp. 18-20 (see also Krzyzan; Steinle. 1989, pp. 86-88) It also was license produced in France by Automobiles Rossel and sold in France under the brand names 'Aviatik' and 'Aviatic-Rossel' by Louis Clément, the local sales representative of the Automobil und Aviatik AG. Design and development The 100 hp Argus As I first can be found in a 1911 brochure of the Automobil und Aviatik AG. It had a bore and stroke of and was rated at 1,250 rpm.Angle. 1921, p. 49, listed as 'Type II' The general design of the engine was the same as the smaller Argus 70 hp four-cylinder engine.

Aircraft Engine
An aircraft engine, often referred to as an aero engine, is the power component of an aircraft propulsion system. Most aircraft engines are either piston engines or gas turbines, although a few have been rocket powered and in recent years many small UAVs have used electric motors. Manufacturing industry In commercial aviation the major Western manufacturers of turbofan engines are Pratt & Whitney (a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies), General Electric, Rolls-Royce, and CFM International (a joint venture of Safran Aircraft Engines and General Electric). Russian manufacturers include the United Engine Corporation, Aviadvigatel and Klimov. Aeroengine Corporation of China was formed in 2016 with the merger of several smaller companies. The largest manufacturer of turboprop engines for general aviation is Pratt & Whitney. General Electric announced in 2015 entrance into the market.

Argus As II
The Argus As II was a six-cylinder, in-line, water-cooled, aircraft engine produced in Germany by Argus Motoren in 1914. The Argus As II produced at 1,350 rpm.Der Argus Flugmotor, 1916 Design and development The Argus As II was a major redesign compared to the preceding Argus 120/130 hp and Argus 140/150 hp six-cylinder engines. Alongside many other changes, the major improvements were the introduction of newly designed steel cylinders and the completely redesigned crankcase, which now had an integrated oil pump and a completely modernized lubrication system. The cylinders were machined from steel separately, with intake and exhaust ducts as well as cooling jackets welded in place in a separate step. While the steel cylinders were still combined to pairs, sharing the same cooling jacket, the change to steel cylinders was accompanied by a change in the design of the intake ducts and the pushrod arrangement. Contrary to the old design, which had the two intake ducts conjo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
