Combustor design simulation requires the resolution of complex geometry, turbulent flow patterns, heat transfer, and detailed chemistry. Although computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can simulate the ...

Engineers have long battled a problem that can cause loud, damaging oscillations inside gas turbines and aircraft engines: ...

Georgia Tech researchers have created a combustion chamber said to practically eliminate nitrogen oxide (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, two of the primary causes of air pollution. The device ...

In a press release that came out this past January, Orbital ATK announced that they have successfully tested a 3D-printed hypersonic engine combustor at the NASA Langley Research Center. The combustor ...

To supplement domestic natural gas supplies, the U.S. is expected to increase its dependence on offshore liquefied natural gas suppliers in the coming years. However, the composition and hydrocarbon ...

Orbital ATK (OA), a global leader in aerospace and defense technologies, announced today that it has successfully tested a 3D-printed hypersonic engine combustor at NASA Langley Research Center. The ...

The field of micro combustors has advanced considerably in recent years, driven by the demand for compact, efficient energy conversion systems for portable power generation and specialised ...

A new type of combustion chamber reduces pollution with less complexity and a safer, more reliable design than other low-emission burners, the device’s developers say. The novel chamber, or combustor, ...

An Israeli company, sponsored by the country's defence ministry, is developing a new type of jet engine based on an orbiting combustor nozzle (OCN). The company, R-Jet Engineering, employs mainly new ...
