Turbojet engines are an incredible piece of 20th century engineering that except for some edge cases, have mostly been replaced by Turbofans. Still, even the most basic early designs were ...
Engineers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany have run a hydrogen gas turbine without a mechanical compressor ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Gas turbine engines often are considered the “heart” of airplanes and ships. Now, Purdue University innovators looking for new solutions to reduce emissions and enhance ...
A compressorless gas turbine built by researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) ...
The gas turbine is one of the most widely used forms of propulsion systems for modern aircraft engines. The engine’s core—defined as the compressor, burner, and turbine—is also known as the gas ...
A turbocharger is the best power-adder by far. Not only do turbos harness otherwise wasted exhaust energy to drive the compressor, their modular nature lets compressor and turbine housings and wheels ...
Aeroderivative turbines built on aircraft-engine cores are emerging as a fast-track response to AI-era grid delays, offering ...
As turbine blades experience high temperatures they can begin to elongate and rub up against the engine’s case wall. Credit: Australian Transport Safety Board Modern turbine engines are reliable when ...
