Scoops are used in aero-engines to capture oil and direct the oil flow for the lubrication of bearings, where a direct oil injection is not effective or possible. The design of scoops focuses on the capture of oil to aim for the highest capture effic... Read More about Operating under jet splashing conditions can increase the capture efficiency of scoops.
