Waterfront, английский
- [1] the wharf or dock area of a city. [2] land at the edge of a stream, harbor, or other body of water. waterjet:marine propulsion technology is moving quickly to offer alternatives to the venerable propeller, one of these being jet propulsion. basically, this depends on differences in the mass-flow of water, which enters and exits a jet drive at differing velocities. a pump draws in water through a mesh that stops foreign objects from entering. an impeller then forces the water out of one or more nozzles at high pressure, accelerating the craft in the opposite direction. in some systems, forward and reverse motion is infinitely controllable through a deflector that diverts thrust forward or aft; in others, the nozzle(s) can turn a full 360 degrees to achieve maximum thrust in either direction. steering is accomplished by directing exit flow, much like directing the thrust of a submerged propeller system. the exit jet does not have to be underwater, since propulsion will be equally good if it thrusts against the air. provided engine and jet drive are well matched, water jet propulsion can be more efficient than conventional propellers. for vessels designed to go faster than 30 knots, especially those that can be called upon to operate in shallow waters, waterjets turned by diesels or gas turbines are often the preferred propulsion option. also called hydrojet propulsion, and see cycloidal drive.
