In the spirit of speed, [James Whomsley] strapped a jet turbine engine to an RC car, and learned some hard lessons along the way. The car started as a four-wheel drive electric race car ...

When a scientist in China invented a new jet engine that could change the future of jet propulsion, it went largely unnoticed ...

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 ...

A gas turbine engine is a device that is designed to convert the thermal energy of a fuel into some form of useful power, such as mechanical (or shaft) power or a high-speed thrust of a jet. The ...

Then, the Abrams stands out from most other MBTs with its unique powerplant: the Avco-Lycoming AGT1500 gas turbine engine. While most tanks in the arsenals of other countries run on diesel engines ...

Ammonia-fueled gas turbines are emerging as another green powering option for ships. Korea’s Hanwha Ocean is moving ahead on ...

Base Materials introduces a high-performance, toughened epoxy tooling board designed for thermoforming and vacuum forming processes, direct-to-part applications and more.

If hot-air engines and inflammable gas engines fail as yet to furnish power comparable to .hat which steam affords, without a very disproportionate increase of bulk, and for high powers fail to ...
