A ram accelerator is a gun that utilizes ramjet compression to accelerate a projectile to extremely high speeds. In a normal ramjet, air is compressed for combustion between a spike-shaped ram and an outer casing. In a ram accelerator, a similar shaped ram is fired(often from a conventional gun) into the accelerator barrel, causing compression between the projectile and the barrel' s walls. The barrel contains a fuel-air mixture. As the ram compresses the mixture, it is ignited behind it. In a typical ram accelerator design, thin membranes designed to be easily punctured by the ram wall off sections of the barrel. Each section is filled with a different fuel-air mixture chosen so that later sections have higher speeds of sound. As such, the ram can be maintained at optimal speeds of mach 3–5(relative to the mixture that it travels through) during its entire acceleration period. 2, record 5, English, - ram%20accelerator

There are three principal types of augers used for well drilling : bucket augers, solid-stem augers, and hollow-stem augers.... Solid-stem augers consist of spiral flanges welded to a pipe. One length of pipe(or auger section) is called a flight; multiple auger sections are often referred to as continuous flighting. The leading auger flight has a special bit or cutter head attached that cuts a hole for the flights to follow. Flights are added as the hole is drilled deeper. Cuttings from the drilling process are brought to the surface by the action of the augers.... Hollow-stem augers are similar to solid-stem augers in design, except that drill rods can pass through the auger sections.... Because the flights are hollow, they can be used as temporary casing to hold the hole open while the permanent casing is installed. Wells drilled with hollow-stem augers have been used to construct water supply wells, but they are more often used to construct monitoring wells. 3, record 6, English, - hollow%20stem%20auger

Il existe deux types de tarières : les tarières creuses et les tarières pleines. Le principal avantage des tarières creuses par rapport aux tarières pleines est de permettre l'installation du puits d'observation sans avoir à retirer les tarières du sol. L'utilisation des tarières pleines n'est possible que dans les matériaux cohésifs car les parois du forage doivent rester verticales assez longtemps pour mettre en place le puits d'observation, la lanterne de sable et le bouchon d'étanchéité. 3, record 6, French, - tari%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20tige%20creuse

Les tarières creuses sont des tarières continues avec une lumière centrale dans laquelle est introduit un train de tiges dont l'extrémité est munie d'un taillant. Ce taillant permet de forer les sols qui sont remontés en surface par le mouvement ascendant de l'hélicoïde. Si l'on désire prélever un échantillon de sol, le train de tiges est remonté, le taillant est remplacé par un outil de prélèvement de sols (un carottier par exemple) descendu jusqu'au fond du forage. 4, record 6, French, - tari%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20tige%20creuse

A liner may serve as the oil string, extending from the producing interval to the next string of casing. A blank liner has no perforations. A perforated liner is perforated or slotted before being placed in the hole. A screen liner is perforated and then arranged with a wire wrapping which acts as a sieve to prevent the entry of sand particles. 3, record 7, English, - liner

CAN COMBUSTION CHAMBER. The can combustion chamber is used mainly on older centrifugal compressor engines. Airflow is ducted to individual combustion cans that are arranged around the circumference of the burner section. Each can contains its own fuel nozzle, burner liner, and casing. Advantages include its strength and durability, combined with the ease of maintenance. Disadvantages include poor use of space in the chamber, greater pressure loss, and uneven heat distribution to the turbine section. 2, record 12, English, - burner%20liner
