Pratt & Whitney is planning further development of rotating detonation engine (RDE) technology following “positive ... The ...

However, the compression of air at Mach 5 causes superheating, so the engine will need to be cooled using a cryogenic heat exchanger. This engine technology could also dramatically cut the ...

A British company developing a rocket engine that can combust using oxygen from the air, as opposed to carrying liquid oxygen like traditional rockets, says it's passed a "significant milestone ...

The conventional turbojets and turbofans found in passenger aircraft are not the same as the air-breathing ramjet engines. Ramjets compress air for combustion using specially designed air inlets ...

With a top speed of 2,200 mph, it remains the fastest aircraft propelled by air-breathing engines ever built. Design innovations abounded, including a titanium outer skin to protect the internal ...

The more in depth analysis of the alternative air breathing engines such as ramjet, scramjet, and synergistic air-breathing rocket engine will be investigated. Then the advanced gas turbine off-design ...

suggest combustion rates 1,000 times faster than traditional scramjet engines, with operational capability between Mach 6 and Mach 16 – a speed where conventional air-breathing engines falter.
