A jet engine is any engine that can propel an aircraft of some kind via rearward expulsion of a jet of fluid, typically a hot exhaust gas that the engine generates by drawing in fuel from the ...

A plane mechanic has finally explained the viral video of “duct tape” on an airliner jet engine — and revealed what it’s really used for. “We looked out of our window and saw this ...

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 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 ...

In human terms, a sound of this level can easily rival the roar of a jet engine taking off a mere 100 meters away from you. Danionella cerebrum is native to shallow, freshwater streams of Myanmar.

Hydrogen-powered planes are set to take wing around the world in the future. To make this possible, engineers have to develop the jet engines that will power them. Experiments by researchers are now ...
