Two revolutionary aerospace technologies collide as GE Aerospace and Lockheed Martin team up to demonstrate a new ...

Detonation is a supersonic combustion wave, characterized by a shock wave driven by the energy release from closely coupled chemical reactions. It is a typical form of pressure gain combustion, ...

Researchers in China have introduced a new hypersonic engine concept by integrating a ramjet with a rotary detonation engine. A team at Tsinghua University in Beijing created a new design known as the ...

The Rotating Detonation Engine being developed by Pratt & Whitney has no moving parts, which reduces complexity and costs, and could help enable high-speed, long-range flight with increased efficiency ...

GE’s TBCC work builds on experience gained on earlier hypersonic designs such as the GE57. Credit: GE Rotating detonation technology is a growing element of GE Aerospace’s accelerating push to play a ...

Scientists at the forefront of hypersonic weapons research in China say they have a more powerful revolutionary air-breathing engine. The “revolutionary” air-breathing engine could lift an aircraft ...

There have been published papers by the Air Force Research Lab and NASA on rotating detonation engines having 10% or more efficiency gains. A rotating detonation engine (RDE) uses a form of pressure ...
