Rolls-Royce is developing a hybrid jet engine designed to reduce flight emissions by roughly 30%, a target that places the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Scientists have used one of the world's most powerful supercomputers to find out how microscopic damage to turbine blades ...

The General Electric GE9X is not just famous because it is larger. Rather, the aircraft is becoming exceptionally noteworthy for its massive fan blade, which pushes jet-engine efficiency to its ...

The idea of a hybrid-electric engine for supersonic aircraft may elicit a similar initial response, but there is some very firm engineering logic behind it. Put simply, conventional supersonic engines ...

This visualization shows the instantaneous wall heat flux on the suction surface of turbine blades in a high-pressure turbine engine. The levels of surface roughness in the leading-edge region are ...

Perhaps not as visible as their counterparts doing business in the automotive industry, aviation startups are just as numerous. Some of them are proposing outlandish ideas that will probably never ...

Five years ago, in 2021, American space agency NASA announced it is working on yet another project that doesn’t involve, well, space: the Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core (HyTEC). Since then, NASA’s ...

Andrew Duggleby, co-founder and CTO of Venus Aerospace, discusses their groundbreaking propulsion technology. They have a ramjet integrated with a rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE) which they ...

Because of their typical role in aerial combat, fighter jet engineering prioritizes speed and agility. To achieve this level of performance, fighter jets integrate aerodynamic form, cutting-edge ...
