f-16 jet engine you are looking at an aircraft turbofan engine produced by the American multi industry corporation General Electric it all began in 1973 when the US Navy started operating the f-14 a aircraft the course speed needed a suitable engine at first it was decided to use the Pratt & Whitney TF 30 model but in the late seventies it turned out that the engine caused problems so the company decided to improve it the advantage of the new engine was there were no more operational problems however the efficiency and thrust correspond to those of the previous model and were lower than the requirements for the f-14 finally in 1979 it was decided to use the GE f-101 engine which was later renamed that became the f1 10 GE 400 the engine you see on the screen is a modified version of it and is known as the f110 GE 100 first created in 1984 has a two stage compressor and two turbines it has a diameter of one point one eight meters and a length of 426 two meters the traction provided by this model is a twelve thousand seven hundred kilogram force it's noteworthy that today these engines are used in the multifunctional four generation liked fighters General Dynamics f-16 Fighting Falcon the fighters have been equipped with it since 1984 before that they use the Pratt & Whitney f100 engines the reason for a place in the engine was the feather the f110 ge 100 had a much higher traction in the Pratt & Whitney f100 these super guppy if you've ever thought about how large heavy and oversized cargoes are transported the vehicle on the screen is the answer to this question the super guppy is a cargo aircraft developed by aero spacelines specifically for transporting heavy loads its first flight took place in 1965 and it's noteworthy that's although more than 50 years of parsons then the super guppy continues to operate however only five units were produced in two modifications be very for super guppy was built using the fuselage of the boeing c 97 military transport aircraft a military version of the boeing 377 however it was modified so its length is 43 meters and the maximum inside diameter is seven point six meters flatten Whitney's t-34 p7 turbine engines increase the vessels payload to twenty four thousand five hundred and forty five kilograms and cruising speed to four hundred and eighty kilometers per hour the super guppy of the second modification received the prefix turbine it's equipped with the allison t56 turboprop engines and the fuselage was redesigned increasing the floor width of the cargo area to four metres the length of the compartment was also increased to thirty three point eight meters and the payload was upgraded to twenty four thousand seven hundred kilograms the plane you see on the screen is the last of the five aircraft produced and it belongs to NASA the aircraft is based at ellington Field Airport in Houston Texas and it's used to deliver large sized items for the ISS the remaining four are now mothballs and are located in the United States United Kingdom France and Germany overburden conveyor bridge f60 looking at this huge conveyor bridge locater than the Elba Esther district of Germany one can easily guess why people often call it a lying Eiffel Tower a total of five such bridges were designed and built between 1969 and 1991 by tack craft this series of bridges was named after 64 reasons to the number 60 indicates the thickness of the overburden in metres which determines the capacity this bridge in particular as well as the other three a location in different parts of Germany and are still used for open-pit mining the fifth bridge located in the lusatia region was turned into a large-scale Museum in 2002 which anyone can visit the bridge is 80 meters high 240 metres wide and 502 meters long and the working weight is thirteen thousand six hundred tonnes what's more surprising is that with such impressive dimensions the giant construction can move independently it's official full name is the sloth propelled automated unit providing transportation of overburden from excavators to internal dumps of quarry's by the shortest way in case you don't know overburden is a hollow rock that covers mineral deposits such as a coal seam the structure consists of a main bridge with a dumping site and while not connecting conveyors that transport the overburden these supports are equipped with a wheel rail mechanism these overburden conveyor bridges are the world's largest mobile industrial technical equipment the MSC maravilla cruise ships bring huge profits to their owners so it's not surprising that are always trying to build them bigger and more luxurious the vessel you see on the screen is owned and operated by the geneva-based company MSC Cruises it was built at the STX Europe trip yard in San Lazare France please ceremonial launch took place in June 2017 at that time the MSC memorabilia was the 4th largest cruise line in the world the first three are lioness of the Oasis series by the Royal Caribbean cruises the mayor of Ilya is 315 point eight three meters long 43 meters wide means 72 metres tall the dimensions as well as the capacity are striking the liner was designed to accommodate 4,500 passengers and 1536 crew members the MSC maravilla is the first of two twin Lynas the second one being the MSC bellisima and is scheduled to be launched in 2019 passengers who decide to go on a trip on this liner before themselves in more than comfortable conditions smaller devices can be used on board thanks to the near field communication technology with its help passengers will be able to communicate with each other as well as to watch the schedule of events and the shipping primary activities accordingly this high-tech vessel allows you to take bills open your cabin check the location of your family or even find friends with the help of a cruise map through small fare the ceiling of this ship is a 480 square metre LED screen on this digital sky you can see a variety of images other features of the liner include a Sun Deck beauty salons restaurants a theatre an amusement park and even and waterpark Harriett since humankind learned about electricity and began to use it for their own benefit the demand for it is constantly growing people use more and more electrical appliances which regularly leads to something that each of us is experienced at least once in our lives a massive blackout in order to meet the needs of all people engineers are developing new and increasingly powerful ways to generate electricity in 2011 for example the construction of the world's most powerful gas turbine harriet again it was developed at the General Electric plant in Bell for France its capacity is five hundred thousand horsepower this turbine will allow the power plant to generate up to six hundred megawatts of electricity thus providing electricity for up to six hundred thousand homes
