Jet engines are built to terrifyingly tight tolerances, yet the latest simulations on the world’s first exascale supercomputer suggest their biggest weakness may be measured in micrometers.

Supercomputers are capable of a mind-boggling number of calculations and one of them just found a flaw in a piece of ...

A hybrid-electric jet engine may seem as absurd as a horse-drawn Zeppelin, but GE Aerospace is ground testing a new megawatt-class hybrid turbofan engine and its full powertrain that is powerful ...

A modern jet engine is a complex mechanical wonder. However, these aren't engines that will just roar into action with the turn of a key or the press of a button. Often, turbine engines will need ...

In a long-running collaboration with GE Aerospace, researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia have been steadily ...

Bob Maddox’s stage name, Crazy Rocketman, is a misnomer. Maddox doesn’t build rockets. He builds pulse-jet engines. There’s a difference. As for the crazy part—that may be true. Maddox is the world’s ...

You could call it a temple of thrust -- a building designed to handle the massive thrust these engines can kick up. Walls 3 feet thick and giant doors weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds enclose ...

LONDON, Sept 1 (Reuters) - Wizz Air (WIZZ.L), opens new tab is working towards a deal with RTX-owned (RTX.CO), opens new tab jet engine maker Pratt & Whitney to accelerate the servicing of its engines ...
