Inlet definition: An inlet is a narrow strip of water which goes from a sea or lake into the land . | Meaning, pronunciation, translations and examples
The forward one-third of the nacelle, termed the inlet cowl, is the smoothly contoured opening that directs air into the engine's fan and compressor blades. While the inlet is primarily composite, the leading edge, referred to as the lipskin, is often metal because of the potential for damage from ground vehicles or debris kicked up during landings. The inlet cowl typically has a built-in de-icing system, heated by hot air from the engine to prevent ice buildup. Making up the middle third is the fan cowl, the cylindrical sleeve that covers the fan and compressor as well as the combuster portions of the engine.
