Jet engines are built to terrifyingly tight tolerances, yet the latest simulations on the world’s first exascale supercomputer suggest their biggest weakness may be measured in micrometers.
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 ...
The aviation world is buzzing with excitement over a breakthrough technology that could change how we fly. Enter wave engines—jet engines that don’t rely on spinning blades or turbines. Instead, they ...
A modern jet engine is a complex mechanical wonder. However, these aren't engines that will just roar into action with the turn of a key or the press of a button. Often, turbine engines will need ...
A technician who once shaped jet engine parts by hand is now helping train ...
