Abstract:
We report on tests of the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) focal plane electronics (FPE) and detectors conducted at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). The goals of these tests are to: characterize the performance of readout modes; establish subarray operations; characterize changes to performance when switching between subarrays and/or readout modes; fine tune detector settings to mitigate residual artifacts; optimize anneal effectiveness; and characterize persistence. The tests are part of a continuing effort to support the MIRI pipeline development through better understanding of the detector behavior. An extensive analysis to determine the performance of the readout modes was performed. We report specifically on the comparison of the fast and slow readout modes and subarray tests.Keywords:

Water jet propulsion, widely used in the area of fast-speed ships nowadays, has increasingly taken the place of traditional propeller. With the development of computer and communication, more and more new control devices have been applied to water jet propulsion. The paper chiefly introduces the characteristics and structure of water jet propulsion according to the project and focuses on the design and realization of the water jet propulsion based on embedded PC.

A study was conducted to determine the promising propulsion systems for advanced supersonic transport application, and to identify the critical propulsion technology requirements. It is shown that noise constraints have a major effect on the selection of the various engine types and cycle parameters. Several promising advanced propulsion systems were identified which show the potential of achieving lower levels of sideline jet noise than the first generation supersonic transport systems. The non-afterburning turbojet engine, utilizing a very high level of jet suppression, shows the potential to achieve FAR 36 noise level. The duct-heating turbofan with a low level of jet suppression is the most attractive engine for noise levels from FAR 36 to FAR 36 minus 5 EPNdb, and some series/parallel variable cycle engines show the potential of achieving noise levels down to FAR 36 minus 10 EPNdb with moderate additional penalty. The study also shows that an advanced supersonic commercial transport would benefit appreciably from advanced propulsion technology. The critical propulsion technology needed for a viable supersonic propulsion system, and the required specific propulsion technology programs are outlined.

SOME literature on the subject of jet‐propulsion power units for aircraft is now available. These have, however, in the main, been primarily concerned with the description and performance of these units. Little, if anything, of the serviceing and serviceing requirements of the gas turbine has been written.

In recent years there has been a revival of interest in hydraulic jet propulsion as a means of propulsion for seacraft. In this paper the important design variables for this type of system are established and the theoretical relationships between them derived. The sphere of application of this method of propulsion is considered and the effect of the different variables discussed. This discussion is illustrated by reference to a typical design and the results of field tests are examined to check the validity of data on which the design is based. In conclusion some general comments are offered on the types of water jet units which show promise for commercial development.

This manuscript bridges the fields of jet propulsion, synthetic jets and thermoacoustic engines. We introduce the case that synthetic jets in air can be considered a consistent approach for propulsion systems. To date, studies on synthetic jet propulsion have been scattered and rather subsidiary. Furthermore, investigating the perspective of propulsion can provide new insights into the field of synthetic jets and the physics of propulsion. In this work, synthetic jet propulsion in air is demonstrated and studied for acoustic and thermoacoustic cases. We developed synthetic jet systems and characterized the resulting propulsion regarding several relevant parameters such as geometric factors and the frequency and power of acoustic jets electromechanically and thermally produced. We demonstrated the 10.4-mN and 2.7-mN thrust in the acoustic and thermoacoustic modes, respectively, using compact tabletop assemblies. The physical mechanism of the jets has been modeled, simulated, verified with Schlieren imaging and laid in the perspective of adherent literature. Similarities and differences regarding traditional jet propulsion systems are discussed. Synthetic jet propulsion in air using a thermal cycle is experimentally demonstrated for the first time.
