INC 52778 Aircraft Air Inlet Spike

A moveable airfoil located at the air intake of the engine. It is designed to restrict airflow during turn and bank situations to prevent engine stall.

Additional Information for Aircraft Air Inlet Spike Additional Information for Aircraft Air Inlet Spike

Aircraft Air Inlet Spikes are components that are part of the Airframe Structural Components supply class in the Aerospace Craft And Structural Components supply group.

Air inlet spikes are typically found on supersonic aircraft and are designed to control the airflow into the engine's inlet. They are located at the front of the aircraft and are responsible for managing the airflow and preventing disturbances such as shockwaves and boundary layer separation.

The main purpose of the air inlet spike is to ensure that the airflow entering the engine remains smooth and uninterrupted, even at high speeds. This is crucial for maintaining engine performance and efficiency.

Air inlet spikes are usually made of high-strength materials such as titanium or composite materials to withstand the high temperatures and pressures experienced during supersonic flight. They are designed to be adjustable, allowing for precise control of the airflow based on the aircraft's speed and altitude.

In summary, aircraft air inlet spikes are important components of the airframe structure that help regulate and control the airflow into the engine's inlet, ensuring optimal engine performance during supersonic flight.
