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 ...

Engine inlet flow is uniform. Any distortion will affect compressor performance and will give an erroneous mass flow measurement. At worst, vortices may be shed from the floor or walls causing high ...

Give it wheels and a steering mechanism, and people will try to power it with anything they can. Visionary (and not-so-visionary) tinkerers and engineers have experimented with everything from ...

India's Kaveri engine, set for inflight tests, represents a major step towards defence technology self-reliance.

Then, the Abrams stands out from most other MBTs with its unique powerplant: the Avco-Lycoming AGT1500 gas turbine engine.

A gas turbine is an engine, which heats a mixture of fuel and outside air at a high temperature to generate mechanical energy through the spinning of turbine blades. The mechanical energy further ...

Global gas Turbine market Greatness Worth USD 25.4 Billion by 2030. Increasing demand for natural gas-fired power plants, rising demand for electricity, re ...

We’re introduced to the traditional two-stroke diesel engine as thermally efficient but not smooth-running, and then the gas turbine as smooth but much more inefficient. The free piston engine ...

As a core part of the project, Japan’s Kawasaki Heavy Industries (KHI), based in Kobe and Tokyo, is supplying RWE, a major German electric power company, with its latest hydrogen gas turbine ...

Most modern jet engines seen by the general public use a gas turbine — also known as a gasifier, gas producer, core, or gas generator — to convert energy generated from the combustion of a ...

As the next step, a full-scale engine test is planned in Greenville ... engineering design reviews for the gas turbine generator solution, and further system testing in our H2 facility in ...

The engine itself is almost completely conventional. It is a Rolls-Royce AE-2100A gas turbine, a design used widely on regional aeroplanes around the world. What is wholly unusual about it is the ...
