China’s State Power Investment Corp (SPIC) says it has commissioned what it calls the world’s first ultra-high-temperature heat-pump energy storage system, branded “Chuno,” after completing a megawatt ...
First introduced in the 2009 CC, the EA888 continued Volkswagen’s move toward smaller, turbocharged engines that offer the fuel economy benefits of downsizing with the power of a larger-displacement ...
The F-47’s adaptive cycle engine can reconfigure itself in flight, shifting airflow to balance extreme efficiency, Mach 2+ thrust, and reduced heat signature. In this breakdown, we explain the three ...
Researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a thermoacoustic Stirling heat pump prototype that offers high thermal performance, a peak coefficient of performance of 1.68, and potential ...
And since the temperature of space is about -270 °C (-454 °F) things can definitely get chilly. It also means that there's a heat gradient for the Stirling engine to work off of. What the engineering ...
It happens each year when the weather turns cold: The coats, hats, sweaters and blankets come out. The lights come on earlier. And the arguments over how high or low to set the thermostat begin. But ...
Abstract: The fuel economy of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) deteriorates due to high cabin heat demands and engine efficiency decay caused by temperature drops in low-temperature environments. This ...
Researchers from China’s Institute of Engineering Thermophysics have reportedly built and tested a new “adaptive cycle engine” (ACE). This is a type of next-generation jet engine that can change how ...
When it’s time to heat your home, what should you set the thermostat to? The first frost warnings are in effect at the beginning of October; a chilling reminder it’s almost heating season. Local ...
Greek carrier Aegean estimates that the airline will need another 24-28 months to complete the cycle of Pratt & Whitney GTF engine inspections on its Airbus A320neo-family fleet. Chief executive ...
Ford once sketched a road where an engine's pistons never saw oil and engines ran hotter on purpose. In a late‑1980s patent application filed and granted in Europe, the company described an "uncooled ...
Caring for a female dog during her first heat cycle can feel overwhelming for many pet parents. It takes patience, extra care, and some know-how to keep her comfortable while keeping your home clean.
