The ion-jet engine

 



The ion-jet engine

The ion jet engine is one of the WARP-based systems for the futuristic spacecraft. The engine is the Scramjet or Ramjet which uses the ions that are pulled through it creating the thrust. So this type of engine is the next-generation solution for aviation. It can operate in and out of the atmosphere.

The ion-jet engine can make the real-life X-wing fighter possible. The idea of the WARP is simple. The airflow through the engine can make by using the magnets that are at the front of the engine channel. Then the air will ionize, and then the magnetic tracks will pull those particles through the channel. The electric arc can use to increase the pressure of the system, and that kind of thing can make the real-life X-wing fighter possible to make at least in some form.

The WARP- or electromagnetic jet-engine could have the ability to fly interplanetary missions and also operate in the atmosphere of other planets. The ion-ramjet doesn't need a propellant, and it can be connected with a nuclear engine. So that kind of system can use in the Russian new "Burevestnik" nuclear-powered missile. Or it can be a very useful engine solution for the new nuclear powered hypersonic shuttles, which can operate at the Earth orbiter or in the atmosphere.

The ion technology can make Ramjet and Scramjet engines operate at airfields.

Ramjets and Scramjets are the engines, which are making the hypersonic speed possible. But the problem with those engines is that they need very high speed to start. The Ramjet engine requires about Mach 1 and Scramjet requires about Mach 5-7 for starting the engine and that thing makes those engines a little bit complicated to use. Of course, the acceleration of the aircraft can make by using stages. The first stage is the regular jet engines, which are accelerating the plane to the speed of Mach 1, and then the ramjet engine will start.

The ramjet will accelerate the vehicle to speed what is the near speed of Mach 6 and then the Scramjet will start. The problem with this system is that it's somehow complicated. One answer is the turbo-ramjet, where the jet engine is inside the Ramjet engine, and when the system is accelerated to speed, what is high enough, that thing will give the aircraft extremely high speed.

The engine compressor must just equip with the iris, which closes the airflow. That denies the damages to the turbine what is causing by the centripetal forces.

The other thing is to put the flap at the front of the Scramjet or Ramjet engine which will allow using the same system as the rocket chamber and the engine, which uses the oxygen from the atmosphere for combustion. The system is an improved version of the flap engine, that is used in the German V-1 flying bomb system during WWII.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
