The Micro-World Observed by Ultra High-Speed Cameras

Parent resource - Aerospace Propulsion

By Kinko Tsuji ISBN_13 9783319614915, ISBN_10 3319614916 This volume is about ultra high-speed cameras, which enable us to see what we normally do not see. These are objects that are moving very fast, or that we just ignore. Ultra high-speed cameras invite us to a wonderland of microseconds. There Alice (the reader) meets a ultra high-speed rabbit (this volume) and travels together through this wonderland from the year 1887 to 2017. They go to the horse riding ground and see how a horse gallops. The rabbit takes her to a showroom where various cameras and illumination devices are presented. Then, he sends Alice into semiconductor labyrinths, wind tunnels, mechanical processing factories, and dangerous explosive fields. Sometimes Alice is large, and at other times she is very small. She sits even inside a car engine. She falls down together with a droplet. She enters a microbubble, is thrown out with a jet stream, and finds herself in a human body. Waking up from her dream, she sees children playing a game: “I see what you do not see, and this is....”. Alice thinks: “The ultra high-speed rabbit showed me many things which I had never seen. Now I will go again to this wonderland, and try to find something new. About - Aerospace Propulsion In this course we will go over the fundamentals of propulsion, aircraft engines, thrust, component efficiency, thermodynamic cycles, combustion, combustor. A discussion of thermodynamics as it applies to airbreathing propulsion will be made as and when necessary.
