A method of reducing noise from a high-speed, including supersonic, jet, the method includes providing the high-speed or supersonic jet in a longitudinal flow direction; and inducing a rotation of a swirl layer of the high-speed or supersonic jet around a longitudinal direction of the jet and on the jet boundary so as to promote mixing of the high-speed or supersonic jet with surrounding air.

An exhaust muffler structure to which an exhaust pipe for guiding exhaust gas from an engine to an exhaust muffler is connected, the exhaust muffler structure comprising a catalyst device, included inside the exhaust muffler structure, having a catalyst for purifying the exhaust gas of the engine, wherein the catalyst device has one end connected to the exhaust pipe and is supported inside the exhaust muffler via the exhaust pipe, and a body portion of the catalyst device is supported by a first partition wall having an inner partition wall and an outer partition wall that is on the outer side of the inner partition wall, and the outer partition wall is fixed to the inner wall of the exhaust muffler, and the inner partition wall is fixed to the outer wall of the catalyst device.

The encased exhaust is a traditional aftermarket expansion chamber muffler system for a two stroke engine encompassing a duct fan/propeller. The propeller is mounted directly to the engine's driveshaft, eliminating reduction gears and belts allowing for more airflow and less weight. This eliminates the muffler and replaces the cage on a paramotor, allowing for more airflow through the funneled air duct. The configuration of these two functions exists but not in this sequence, that is what makes this product unique.

An exhaust gas cleaning system includes a particle filter device comprising a casing, plural hollow ceramic filter rods arranged at least partly inside a gas passage of the casing, and a gas inlet and gas outlet. The particle filter device guides exhaust gas from the gas inlet, through the gas passage and to the gas outlet. The particle filter device further comprises a perforated plate extending at least partly along the filter rods and partly blocking an exhaust gas flow path from the gas inlet to the gas passage. The perforated plate defines openings allowing exhaust gas to flow into the gas passage. The filter rods are gas permeable to allow exhaust gas to penetrate, during filtration, a respective wall of the filter rods and flow into the filter rods. A respective open upper end of the filter rods communicates with the gas outlet so exhaust gas leaves the casing.

The dual inlet exhaust design for the flying device incorporates easy-to-assemble designs with low number of components, suitable for limited space and small volume requirements, good performance. The exhaust is designed as a three-chamber cylinder with two coaxial inlet pipes running through the two chambers on both sides, extending into the middle compartment. The width of the two inlet tubes in the middle compartment is different. The inlet pipe at the two compartments on both sides has a bore. The outlet tube is located in the middle compartment, deviating to the side with a smaller expansion inlet, with the longitudinal axis of the outlet tube passing through the inlet tube.

A work vehicle includes: a wheel support member configured to support a pair of left and right traveling wheels; a link mechanism configured to support the wheel support member such that the wheel support member can be raised and lowered, the link mechanism being provided spanning between a vehicle body and the wheel support member; a suspension mechanism configured to elastically support the wheel support member, the suspension mechanism being provided spanning between a suspension support portion, which is formed on the vehicle body, and the wheel support member; and a lateral link configured to restrict leftward and rightward movement of the wheel support member, the lateral link being joined to a vehicle body-side support portion, which is formed on the vehicle body, and to a wheel-side support portion, which is formed on the wheel support member, wherein the link mechanism has: an upper link with an front end portion supported so as to be able to pivot up and down around an upper pivot axis by a link support portion, which is formed on the vehicle body, and with a rear end portion joined so as to be able to relatively pivot around an upper joint axis by the wheel support member; and a lower link with a front end portion supported so as to be able to pivot up and down around a lower pivot axis by the link support portion, and with a rear end portion joined to the wheel support member so as to be able to relatively pivot around a lower joint axis, a distance between the upper pivot axis and the upper joint axis is set shorter than a distance between the lower pivot axis and the lower joint axis, a gap width between the upper joint axis and the lower joint axis is set larger than a gap width between the upper pivot axis and the lower pivot axis, and when the vehicle body is in an unloaded state, the lower joint axis is located lower than the lower pivot axis.

A secondary air system for an aircraft engine comprises an air flow path communicating between a source of pressurized cooling air and an air consuming component. A filter is disposed in the air flow path upstream from the air consuming component. The filter has at least one of: openings of a size selected for capturing suspended particles; and a filter surface material for binding with chemical contaminants.

A riding lawn mower has an internal combustion engine and a muffler with a first housing. The internal combustion engine is connected to the muffler to supply exhaust gases originating from the internal combustion engine to the first housing of the muffler for noise damping of the exhaust gases. A second housing is provided that thermally insulates the first housing of the muffler. The second housing at least partially encloses the first housing of the muffler. The second housing has an exterior side with an emissivity of greater than 0.8.

A diffuser nozzle for a gas turbine engine includes a housing disposed about a nozzle axis and extending between a first nozzle end and a second nozzle end. The housing defines a nozzle duct. A plurality of walls is disposed within the nozzle duct. The plurality of walls subdivides the nozzle duct into a plurality of duct sections. The plurality of walls further defines a plurality of axially-extending duct segments of the nozzle duct such that within a first axially-extending duct segment, the duct cross-sectional area of a first duct section of the plurality of duct sections is greater than the duct cross-sectional area of each other duct section and within a second axially-extending duct segment, the duct cross-sectional area of a second duct section of the plurality of duct sections is greater than the duct cross-sectional area of each other duct section.
