From Quebec to Alabama, Qatar Airways' order for hundreds of new GE engines will benefit workers across the US and beyond.
The Air India Express Dreamliner crash in Ahmedabad, claiming 272 lives, has sparked intense investigation into the cause of ...
Airbus is to test a radical engine with visible fan blades as the world’s largest plane maker gears up to develop a successor for its best-selling A320 family of jets.
This system is also 3D printed and can restrict or open up the outflow of the ducted fan, much like a real jet engine would. It uses two servos connected to collars on the outside of the engine.
Two defense experts on Saturday said that a broken fan blade from one engine hitting the other may be behind the crash of a AT-5 Yung Ying (勇鷹, “Brave Eagle”) trainer jet that suffered double engine ...
Jet engine spirals are meant for the safety of ground workers. When the blades on jet engines spin, they're whipping at high speeds, normally between 2,200 and 4,500 rotations per minute (RPM).
If that plain old wood-and-whatever ceiling fan in your living room isn’t quite generating enough airflow for your liking, perhaps you’d consider a jet engine instead. … ...
So, if you're here for a quick answer to what type of fan is used in jet engines, the quick answer would be that it is a turbofan engine, which is a portmanteau of the word "turbo" and "fan" The ...
GE Aerospace has started testing key components of its in-development open-fan engine, and executives still insist the fuel-efficient design will find its way on future narrowbody passenger jets.
The eco-friendly approach does not mean an aircraft powered by open fan engines would be less potent. The goal is to make the tech in such a way as to allow the planes to reach speeds of Mach 0.8 ...
French engine maker Safran said on Friday it had begun wind-tunnel tests for its "RISE" technology project, a radical jet engine design for the next generation of medium-haul jets. Safran and its ...
