The lower the BSFC, the more efficient an engine is. In this video we'll define brake specific fuel consumption, show how it correlates with efficiency, look at a BSFC map, compare BSFC with RPM, ...

Getting from A to B by most means of transport is polluting; incomplete combustion of fuels releases soot and unburned fuel into the atmosphere, along with greenhouse gases such as carbon monoxide and ...

The global automotive lubricants market has seen significant transformation over the past decade, driven by evolving engine technologies, stricter emission regulations, and growing consumer awareness ...

As downsizing has emerged as one of the best ways to meet tightening emissions rules, Ford has dived in headlong with its range of EcoBoost engines. The small turbo engines feature in everything from ...

One famous limit of thermodynamics is that heat engines, like steam engines and internal combustion engines, must be less efficient than a Carnot heat engine (a heat engine cycle designed by French ...

Recent advances in the analysis of aviation engine efficiency and sustainability have expanded the understanding of engine performance beyond traditional energy metrics. Researchers are increasingly ...

Every fleet strives to achieve two things when it comes to engines. The first is to maintain efficiency in order to reduce operating and service costs. The other is to ensure the longest possible ...

Kyle Hyatt (he/him/his) hails originally from the Pacific Northwest, but has long called Los Angeles home. He's had a lifelong obsession with cars and motorcycles (both old and new). One of the cool ...

Pratt & Whitney thinks the aerospace industry might need a bit more time to achieve a broad goal of squeezing at least 20% more efficiency out of the next generation of narrowbody aircraft engines.

As fast as electric cars are improving and expanding, there are some things that gas engines do better—many experts agree that gasoline engines will be around for several decades. Developing electric ...

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