Windcatcher, a radical design in offshore wind turbines has won a US$107 million award to build a demonstrator facility in ...
In the 1960s, Chrysler built a handful of cars powered by aircraft-style turbine engines. And where does one take a turbine when it's in need of a rebuild? To the original manufacturer, of course.
The turbine engine was meant to be the automotive propulsion method of the future. Things, however, didn't quite work out ...
Nearly a year ago to this day on January 11, 2024, Safran and Turbotech successfully ground-tested a small TP-R90 turboprop ... successfully ground-tested a turbine engine fueled by liquid hydrogen.
There are very few machines as complex to build as a turbojet engine. The turbine blades on a commercial airliner are grown from a single crystal of metal. The engineering tolerances are crazy ...
Technical difficulties were never fully overcome, the increasing cost of fuel made gas turbine cars uneconomic to run, and meanwhile by the 1960s the piston engine had improved immeasurably over ...
At MTU Aero Engines in Munich, the fact that research and development ... But it's not that simple. This is because the small low-pressure turbine should run as quickly as possible in order to achieve ...
