ram air turbine

It uses a ram air turbine to supply its own power.

Large aircraft may have a ram air turbine to provide additional power during engine failures.

A ram air turbine is fitted to provide power for basic controls in the event of an emergency.

The pilots used the aircraft's ram air turbine to power the hydraulic systems for aerodynamic control.

This is a list of aviation incidents involving a ram air turbine:

The emergency ram air turbine was deployed automatically to provide essential power for critical sensors and instruments to fly the aircraft.

As the aircraft slowed on approach to landing, the ram air turbine generated less power, rendering the aircraft increasingly difficult to control.

The ram air turbine is a specialist form of small turbine that is fitted to some aircraft.

Two ram air turbines driving turbopumps generate hydraulic power for the wing control system, and a fuel pump that feeds the engines.

A ram air turbine -a small retractable propeller which can provide emergency power- is also fitted in the wing root fairing.

A notable feature of the design was that the XF-84H was the first aircraft to carry a retractable/extendable ram air turbine.

Leul used a ram air turbine to preserve the aircraft's most essential functions, but in this mode some hydraulic systems-such as the flaps-were inoperative.

The Vulcan was returning to Waddington, carrying out a practice emergency descent which included the deployment of the Ram air turbine (RAT).

Two small ram air turbines attached to the main gondola on swinging arms supplemented electrical power for the radio room, internal lighting, the galley, and acted as a reserve.

Liquid chemicals could be sprayed using an interchangeable system which delivered chemical to spraybars via a ram air turbine driven regulator pump to give coverage 30m(98 ft) wide.

Before release, they were spun backwards at 700 to 900 rpm by a ram air turbine mounted in the bomb bay's midsection, fed by an extendable air scoop.

To provide electrical power in the event of generator or engine failure a drop-down RAT(ram air turbine), driven by ram air in the aircraft slipstream provided a back-up system.

A ram air turbine (commonly known by the acronym RAT) is a small turbine that is connected to a hydraulic pump, or electrical generator, installed in an aircraft and used as a power source.

A ram air turbine is fitted in front of the single tail fin to provide backup hydraulic power for the flight controls in the event of an engine failure, additionally a gas turbine auxiliary power unit is housed directly above the engine.

As with the 767, this is usually achieved through the automated deployment of a ram air turbine, a hydraulic pump (and on some airplanes a generator) driven by a small propeller, which in turn is driven by the forward motion of the aircraft through the air.

Since they were too high for an APU start, the ram air turbine (known as an "Air Driven Generator" on Bombardier products) was deployed to power the aircraft, and the crew donned oxygen masks as the cabin slowly depressurized due to loss of pressurization air from the engines.
