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 ...

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

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 ...

suggest combustion rates 1,000 times faster than traditional scramjet engines, with operational capability between Mach 6 and ...

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 ...

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 ...
