Jet engines are an engineering marvel, but how do they actually work to keep planes soaring at incredible speeds? In this video, we’ll break down the complex mechanics behind jet propulsion in a way ...

The prototype already achieves a jet pressure of 24,000 newtons per square meter with 400 watts of power, comparable to commercial aircraft engines. However, larger aircraft will require ...

The notion of putting jet engines in cars in one that won't go away. For literally decades, major automakers have played ...

This is true for the Lycoming O-320 series of engines, airplane engines so powerful that they are still in use today despite being 70 years old. Let's discuss.

The Hawker Siddeley Kestrel was the aviation world’s first jump jet, a Vertical/Short Take-Off and Landing (or V/STOL) ...

Rolls-Royce says the engine that is due to power the Dassault Aviation Falcon 10X has completed “all major engine ...

On October 11, 2024, Astro Mechanica successfully performed the first hot-fire test up to 30% power of its Gen3 engine. Traditional turbojets, like you'd see in fighter planes, use the exhaust gas ...

That's because the arrival of the jet engine allowed engines to output more power for the same weight. Soon, jet power supplanted the radial in both fighters and bombers.

Another example occurred in January 2009, when US Airways Flight 1549 lost power to both its engines when a swarm of Canada geese overwhelmed the engines, causing damage that made them inoperable.

Lilium Begins Testing Electric Jet Power Systems The manufacturer put the aircraft’s electrical power system, comprising 30 engines within flaps on the main wing and canard, through a series of ...
