Variable cycle engine design embodies a transformative approach in aero‐propulsion, enabling engines to adapt their thermodynamic cycle to meet diverse operational demands, from fuel efficiency to ...

Even as EVs begin to encroach on ICE cars, the development of fuel-burning engines hasn't stopped. With almost 150 years of development in the Otto cycle internal combustion engine, you may think ...

The US Air Force (USAF) has reached a significant milestone in its effort to develop a sixth-generation jet engine. The service has completed detailed design reviews of two adaptive-cycle engine ...

Some engines earn a reputation not just for power or refinement but for an almost absurd ability to survive neglect, abuse, and high mileage. When mechanics talk about designs that are “nearly ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue University researchers have created a software tool that is more than 100 times faster than other programs used by engineers to improve jet engine designs. The software ...

OHV stands for overhead valve, and these types of powerplants can also be called pushrod engines. OHV engines have the intake and exhaust valves located above the camshaft, which is in the engine ...
