The researchers have developed innovative rare Earth oxide coatings that enable turbine engines to operate at higher ...

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 ...

Smaller than a standard street bike and larger than a pocket bike it comes with a 50cc engine and is street legal. The gas turbine is being constructed from a Cummins ST-50 usually found in large ...

Russell Sutton is a man after our own heart. The craftsman has spent the last four years building a nine-cylinder radial engine using a smattering of Honda XR600 singles for his airboat.

The engine is the lifeblood of a car. It converts fuel, usually gasoline, into physical motion that turns the wheels and ...

Otherwise, we might’ve never gotten to see someone turn a helicopter’s turbine engine into a completely lag-free turbo that ...

A multidisciplinary research group has formulated new protective coatings to allow turbine engines to run hotter -- with potential dividends for the environment and people.

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 ...

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and the National Energy Technology Laboratory have developed and 3D ...

Optimizing the airflow within turbine engines is critical in reaching peak efficiency and performance. Airflow management guarantees that the engine operates within the design parameters, maximizing ...

Welcome to the wind turbine graveyard ... Other products include syngas (synthesis gas) that can be used in combustion engines. And char (charcoal) which can be used as a fertiliser.

Wind turbine technicians, also known as wind techs, are the professionals in charge of inspecting and maintaining wind turbines. That means that most of their days are spent way up high in a ...
