Développement Technique Probatoire de Trubomeca, soutenu par la DPAC dédié essentiellement au développement technologique d’une turbine HP mono étage refroidie pour turbomoteur d’hélicoptère. Lancé en 1999, il fait suite, avec des objectifs plus ambitieux, au programme VESTA . Le nouvel étage de turbine HP fera l’objet en 2003 d’essais en générateur de gaz, associé à un compresseur bicentrifuge. Le programme se terminera en 2004 par des essais en moteur complet en intégrant une turbine de puissance bi-étage lente et une technologie innovante de palier arrière inter arbres. 1, record 10, French, - turbine%20HP%20mono%C3%A9tage

We have to consider what type of gain device is suitable for this application. Actually the choice is simple: Bipolar devices have too low an input impedance to be useable, and tubes have too little gain to be used in a single stage power amplifier. The only usable device is the power Mosfet, which is a transconductance device like the tube, and has a high input impedance, but operates with enough gain at high enough currents to be driven directly by line-level signal. 3, record 13, English, - single%20stage%20power%20amplifier

A single-stage to orbit (or SSTO) launcher describes an as-yet theoretical class of spacecraft designed to place a load into orbit as a self-contained vehicle without the use of multiple stages. No actual SSTO launchers have been constructed - current launches are either performed by multi-stage expendable rockets, or the Space Shuttle which is assisted by fuel tanks and solid fuel rockets that are jettisoned during the climb. 1, record 14, English, - single%2Dstage%20to%20orbit%20launcher

The ideal reusable launcher would be analogous to a normal aircraft in that it would be able to take off from many possible bases on Earth, enter the desired orbital plane, accelerate to orbital velocity, release its payload, de-orbit, dissipate its kinetic energy and land at the take-off base to be readied for its next flight after a quick turn-around. The vehicle would maintain physical integrity during a mission, would be flown 'very often', and its cost per flight would be compatible with the value of the missions undertaken. The vehicle would also be able to abort its mission any time in the case of mishap and land intact with its payload. This ideal vehicle is the 'single-stage-to-orbit reusable rocket launcher', or SSTO-RRL. 2, record 15, English, - single%2Dstage%2Dto%2Dorbit%20reusable%20rocket%20launcher

The orbital aircraft has the capability to fly suborbital missions without propellant transfer, to distances of 3,000 to 6,000 nautical miles, depending on the aerodynamic configuration This capability exists because the airframe is capable of independent takeoff and landing. This offers a transcontinental range for a number of alternate missions that are difficult to imagine for an air launch concept. For the same reason, the tanker and orbital aircraft may be based at different locations, and interfaced only in flight. This offers more basing flexibility and removes the requirements for specialized facilities and ground support equipment such as that needed to mate the Shuttle orbiter to its carrier aircraft. 2, record 18, English, - orbital%20aircraft

An arrangement in which the turbine extracts just sufficient energy from high pressure gas to drive the compressor and where the gases leaving the turbine will still be at a pressure above atmospheric and can be expanded in a propelling nozzle to produce a high velocity jet.

Gas turbine engines for aircraft come in many types and sizes, each of which has its advantages and also its limitations. The most common type is the uncomplicated turbojet, similar to the typical jet engine described earlier. Because it has no added features such as a fan, propeller, of free turbine, this kind of turbojet is sometimes referred to as straight jet engine.
