Modern refrigeration processes comprise a wide variety of highly advanced techniques to remove heat from an enclosed space. These methods range from vapor compression and vapor absorption ...

General Electric will find out later this summer how the core of the new engine for the 777X performs in an isolated ground test. The maturation testing on the high pressure compressor rig will ...

A study has found that the choice of the optimum compressor interstage pressure is an economic decision that can be estimated by equal compression ratios for each stage and adjustments to minimize ...

The new compressor is described as the world’s most powerful single-unit compressed air energy storage (CAES) system, with a maximum discharge pressure of 10.1 MPa and an efficiency of 88.1%.

Steep inter compressor ducts (ICDs) are a promising solution for reducing the environmental impact of future aircraft engines through lower fuel consumption. This fuel saving is due to several factors ...

Safran Aircraft Engines will undertake a crucial test next year on a redesigned high-pressure (HP) compressor for its Silvercrest engine as it works to tackle performance issues discovered during ...
