๐Ÿ›ซA sonic boom is the sound associated with the shock waves created whenever an object travelling through the air travels faster than the speed of sound.

๐Ÿ›ซSonic booms generate enormous amounts of sound energy, sounding similar to an explosion or a thunderclap to the human ear.

๐Ÿ›ซSound travels in the form of wave in all directions.

๐Ÿ›ซImagine that a stationary aircraft has its engine ON , so the sound travels like sphere around the aircraft with each outer lining, representing a wave.

๐Ÿ›ซWhen aircraft moves, the waves ahead of aircraft get compressed, but they do not averlap each other below the speed of sound.

๐Ÿ›ซWhen it travels faster than speed of sound, the aircraft travels faster than these waves and the waves combine to form a single high energy wave called Sonic boom.

๐Ÿ›ซThis forms cone behind the aircraft called "Mach Cone".

๐Ÿ›ซWe can't hear the sound when aircraft passes over is , we can only hear it when the base of this cone reaches to us.

๐Ÿ›ซWe sometime can see a cloud form behind the aircraft, this is because of rapid change in air pressure which causes the drop in temperature and water vapor to condense and a cloud forms.

๐Ÿ›ซa critical speed known as Mach 1, and is approximately 1,235 km/h (767 mph) at sea level and 20 °C (68 °F).

Wet Sump Oil System ✳️The engine oil system performs several important functions: ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Lubrication of the engine’s moving parts . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Cooling of the engine by reducing friction . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Removing heat from the cylinders . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Carrying away contaminants . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Providing a seal between the cylinder walls and pistons. ➡️Subscribe us for more aircraft knowledge and aircraft fact⬅️ ➡️Do Share with your Friends⬅️

Basic Clouds ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Cloud type is determined by its height, shape, & characteristics. They are classified according to the height of their bases as low, middle, or high clouds, as well as clouds with vertical development. ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Low clouds are those that form near the Earth’s surface and extend up to about 6,500 feet AGL. They are made of water droplets but can include supercooled water droplets that induce hazardous aircraft icing. Typical low clouds are stratus, stratocumulus, nimbostratus. Fog is also low cloud formation. This Clouds create low ceilings, hamper visibility, & can change rapidly. They influence flight planning & can make visual flight rules (VFR) flight impossible. ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Middle clouds form around 6,500 feet AGL & extend up to 20,000 feet AGL. They are composed of water, ice crystals, & supercooled water droplets. Typical middle-level clouds include altostratus & altocumulus. These types of clouds are encountered on cross-country flights at highe

๐Ÿ›ฉ️A combustor is a component or area of a gas turbine, ramjet, or scramjet engine where combustion takes place. It is also known as a burner, combustion chamber or flame holder. In a gas turbine engine, combustion chamber is fed high pressure air by the compression system. ๐Ÿ›ฉ️The combustor then heats this air at constant pressure. After heating, air passes from the combustor through the nozzle guide vanes to the turbine. In the case of a ramjet or scramjet engines, the air is directly fed to the nozzle. ๐€๐ง๐ง๐ฎ๐ฅ๐š๐ซ ๐“๐ฒ๐ฉ๐ž ✈️The most commonly used type of combustor is the fully annular combustor. Annular combustors do away with the separate combustion zones and simply have a continuous liner and casing in a ring. There are many advantages to annular combustors, including more uniform combustion, shorter size, lighter, and less surface area. Annular combustors tend to have very uniform exit temperatures. They also have the lowest pressure drop of the three
