• stator blade — The fixed/variable incidence blade attached to the axial flow compressor stator casing. The first stage of the stators normally is variable incidence, whereas the later stages are fixed. They help direct the airflow at the optimum angle onto the… …   Aviation dictionary

• stage — i. In turbine engines, a single turbine wheel having a number of turbine blades. See turbine. ii. In axial flow compressors, one disc of rotor blades and the following set of stator vanes. One stage of compressor. iii. One complete element of a… …   Aviation dictionary

• compressor stage — i. A pair of stator and rotor rings form one stage of an axial flow compressor. The rotating airfoils increase air velocity, which then changes into pressure in the numerous diverging ducts formed by the stator vanes. ii. Each section of a… …   Aviation dictionary

• variable-angle stator vanes — Compressor stator vanes whose angle can be varied. The angle is controlled by the fuel control unit. Varying the stator vane angle ensures that the air directed to the first stage of the compressor meets the compressor at an optimum angle and… …   Aviation dictionary

• single-stage compressor — A centrifugal compressor having a single impeller wheel, with vanes either on one or on both sides of the wheel. Also, an axial flow compressor with one row of rotor blades and one row of stator blades. Axial flow compressors are normally… …   Aviation dictionary

• turbine stator — A ring of fixed blades upstream of each turbine rotor stage, onto which the turbine stators direct gas at an optimum angle. Also called inlet guide vanes. See inlet guide vanes and turbine nozzle …   Aviation dictionary

• Torque converter — A torque converter is a modified form of fluid coupling that is used to transfer rotating power from a , such as an internal combustion engine or electric motor, to a rotating driven load. Like a basic fluid coupling, the torque converter… …   Wikipedia

• Turbine — A turbine is a rotary engine that extracts energy from a fluid flow. Claude Burdin (1788 1873) coined the term from the Latin turbo , or vortex, during an 1828 engineering competition. Benoit Fourneyron (1802 1867), a student of Claude Burdin,… …   Wikipedia

• Axial compressor — Axial compressors are rotating, aerofoil based compressors in which the working fluid principally flows parallel to the axis of rotation. This is in contrast with centrifugal, axi centrifugal and mixed flow compressors where the air may enter… …   Wikipedia

• Steam turbine — A rotor of a modern steam turbine, used in a power plant A steam turbine is a mechanical device that extracts thermal energy from pressurized steam, and converts it into rotary motion. Its modern manifestation was invented by Sir Charles Parsons… …   Wikipedia
