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 ...

Rotary engines have an aura of cool. In games of Top Trumps, the V12 might have been king, but a rotary was a joker, a wild card. A lack of mainstream success no doubt contributes; there are reasons ...

Rolls-Royce has announced that its new F130 engine has successfully passed the Critical Design Review (CDR) phase, progressing toward production. Rolls-Royce has successfully completed F130 engine ...

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 defining characteristic of a two-stroke engine is to fire (combust) every time the piston is at top dead center. This makes them highly power dense, but also notoriously makes two-stroke engines ...

ATLANTA — The future of space travel just got a boost thanks to one Georgia Tech undergraduate student. Dalton Luedke is a third-year aerospace engineering student at Tech, and also part of the NASA ...

The internal combustion engine, despite being a century-and-a-half old, is still an impressive marvel of engineering. There are several variations of engine design that have been experimented with ...

Despite its critics and moves toward electrification, the internal combustion engine is not yet dead. Though its design for passenger vehicles may have begun to reach its apex with Mazda’s Skyactiv ...

It's been a long time since the automotive world has bothered with the mixing of oil and gas of the two-stroke combustion cycle — but soon, it may come time to rid ourselves of four-stroke engines, if ...

The advent of turbochargers on road cars began in the mid-1960s, during the muscle car era when the phrase "there is no replacement for displacement" meant more power output was best achieved with ...
