Adverse yaw!!! Roll causes Yaw and Yaw causes Roll...

Image
Do you know what adverse yaw is and how to solve it? To understand what adverse yaw is, we need to first explain the axes of motion for an  airplane. An aircraft in flight can rotate around three different axes, as illustrated below. Aircraft control surfaces However, the effect of one control surface is not always limited to just pitch, roll, or yaw  alone. When the deflection of one control surface affects more than one of these  orientations, we say that the orientations are coupled. The most important of these  coupled interactions is adverse yaw. To better understand the concept, let's study a  picture of what happens when the pilot deflects the ailerons to roll the aircraft. As you can see, the aircraft rolls because one aileron is deflected downward while the other is deflected upward. Lift increases on the wing with the downward-deflected aileron because the deflection effectively increases the camber of that portion of the wing. Conversely, lift decreases on the wing with

Effect of Rain & Snow on Jet Engines...

Image
You might have some question like.... How can a jet engine work when it rains or snows? Wouldn't the water put out the flame inside? How is water removed from a jet engine in rainy conditions? Does rain or snow ingestion affect the efficiency of a jet engine? Answers are here... As we know a jet engine works by compressing incoming air,  mixing it with fuel, igniting that mixture, and exhausting the high-pressure gases to  produce thrust. The initial compression is accomplished through a series of rotating  blades called compressors. After jet fuel is added through a fuel injection system, the  mixture is burned in a combustion chamber. The exhaust moves through another series  of rotating blades called the turbine that powers the engine and finally through a nozzle. Simple Jet Engine The biggest danger posed by forms of precipitation like rain, snow, ice, or fog is an engine flame-out. A flame-out is defined as a loss of engine power that is not caused by a mechanical failure. The
