While Rolls-Royce and others in the aerospace industry are working on electric and hybrid propulsion systems for aircraft, for long-haul aircraft, at the moment jet engines are the only option.
It’s left to [Integza] to take this idea and see it as the compressor for a jet engine, and though the prototype you see in the video below is fragile and prone to melting, it shows some promise.
But despite the fact that a few thousand of them are tearing across the sky above our heads at any given moment, turbine jet engines are still expensive to produce compared to other forms of ...
Hot engine oil cools fuel in the Fuel Oil Heat Exchanger. Fuel filters remove contaminants for efficient combustion. The fuel system is one of the most complex systems in a jet engine, as the fuel ...
For more than 100 years, the company has been designing and manufacturing aircraft engines and is now a global leader in the market. As a jet engine manufacturer, Rolls-Royce products provide the ...

The Boss 429 and 429 Super Cobra Jet V8 engines rank as some of the most powerful engines ever put in the Ford Mustang. In fact, if we limit our discussion to first-gen Mustangs, these engines ...
It gave Concorde's engines a fiery glow (and also made them extremely loud). Most jet engines wouldn't perform well if they took in air flowing at supersonic speeds. Concorde's ingeniously ...
Jet engines work on the "suck, squeeze, bang, blow" principle, using highly pressurized air and fuel combustion to generate thrust. Engine materials have evolved from steel to nickel-chromium ...
A RYANAIR flight has been abandoned after an explosion left the wing of a plane on fire. All 184 passengers onboard were ...
Science presenter Rani Price meets two scientists involved in developing a new type of jet engine that could power commercial space flights. The engine is being developed by British scientists and ...
