vahedetonaator preferred
Usage examples
  • Lihtlõhkeaine vajab initsieerimiseks vahedetonaatorit. Vahedetonaatoris oleva lõhkeaine detonatsioonikiirus peab olema suurem lihtlõhkeaine detonatsioonikiirusest.
booster
Usage examples
  • In the applications of the secondary explosive one always requires the use of a detonator and in some cases also a booster in order that detonation may be produced easily and reliably. A booster is usually a small, pressed, cast, or low density (loose-packed) charge of one of the more sensitive secondary explosives capable of being detonated readily by a detonator. It is used to reinforce the detonation wave from the detonator and thus deliver to the secondary explosive a more powerful detonation wave than is possible with a detonator alone. This makes possible the use of many relatively insensitive explosives that otherwise would have no direct application.
  • Equipment and devices specially designed to initiate explosions by electrical or non-electrical means, including firing sets, detonators, igniters, boosters and detonating cord, and specially designed components therefor ...

booster
booster engine
  • suure veojõuga, lühikest aega toimiv ballistilise raketi abimootor, mida kasutatakse startimisel
  • rocket motor used to impart very large thrust for a short period of time during the early stages of a launch and the initial acceleration of a missile or other vehicle
stardikiirendi
Usage examples
  • Võimsama ülemise astme paigaldamise asemel kinnitati Thori esimese astme külge tahkekütus-stardikiirendi.
booster
Usage examples
  • The SLS booster is the largest, most powerful solid propellant booster ever built for flight.
booster engine
Usage examples
  • NK-33 is a 350-klbf-class LOX-kerosene oxygen-rich staged combustion cycle engine with one of the highest T/W of any booster engine.
booster rocket
Usage examples
  • The launch of the Galileo, Ulysses and Cassini space probes had many features in common. Each was launched from a large booster rocket sent off from Cape Canaveral in Florida. The rocket was sent out over the sea and when the booster rocket fell away after about 25 s it was already many miles over the ocean.

  • põhi- või abikäivitussüsteem, mis lendab välja koos raketi või õhusõidukiga ja mis võib, kuid ei pruugi pärast jõuimpulsi andmist raketi või õhusõiduki küljest eralduda. Kiirendussüsteem võib sisaldada ühte või mitut mootorit või koosneda ühest või mitmest mootorist
  • an auxiliary or initial propulsion system which travels with a missile or aircraft and which may or may not separate from the parent craft when its impulse has been delivered. A booster system may contain, or consist of, one or more units.
