A hybrid-electric jet engine may seem as absurd as a horse-drawn Zeppelin, but GE Aerospace is ground testing a new megawatt-class hybrid turbofan engine and its full powertrain that is powerful ...
Colorado-based firm Beehive Industries has unveiled a 3D-printed turbofan engine for uncrewed combat aircraft.
A major testing “milestone” using hydrogen as an aviation fuel has been claimed by easyJet and aircraft engine manufacturer Rolls-Royce. The companies tested a modified aircraft engine reaching full ...
Franco-American aerospace company CFM—a joint venture between Safran Aircraft Engines and GE Aerospace—has moved ...
Rolls-Royce and easyJet have completed ground testing of a modified Pearl 15 engine running on 100% hydrogen at full takeoff ...
GE Aerospace and Kratos have concluded high-altitude testing of a small jet engine intended to power uncrewed fighter aircraft. The pair, which announced their intent to jointly develop the GEK800 ...
You could call it a temple of thrust -- a building designed to handle the massive thrust these engines can kick up. Walls 3 feet thick and giant doors weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds enclose ...
GE Aerospace in Cincinnati is using a 747 aircraft as a flying laboratory to test jet engines under extreme conditions, pushing new designs to their limits to ensure safety and performance. “We are ...
In addition, replacing all those mechanical parts makes the engine cheaper – an important point with what is essentially a disposable power plant. For testing, the engine installed in the ATLAS Flight ...
A multidisciplinary team at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) produced, characterized and tested standard jet fuel along with two sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), including one developed at SwRI, ...
