His no weld version of a pulse jet can be built in even the most minimalist work shop and is the epitome of an ... 33 thoughts on “ Engine Hacks: A Pulse Jet UAV By Any Other Name Would Still Be ...

Pulse-jet engines are generally really loud (because of the rapidly repeating detonations). Unless they can make these things quieter than conventional jet/prop propulsion, I see a sad future for ...

This is why jet engines employ an air compression mechanism to forcefully draw air in at an accelerated rate. With this mechanism, over 1 million tons of air are drawn into the turbine per second.

Pulse jets are perhaps the most popular type of DIY jet engine, largely for their ease of construction. They require no advanced machining to produce turbine or compressor wheels, nor the use of ...

Airlines are making adjustments to avoid flight cancellations after being forced to ground some aircraft in the wake of a massive jet engine recall. Pratt & Whitney has recalled roughly 1,200 Geared ...

Since the 1960s engineers around the world have been fiddling with a novel type of jet called a rotating detonation engine (RDE), but it has never got beyond the experimental stage. That could be ...

It’s the little fish that roared. One of the world’s smallest fish, measuring about half an inch long, can produce sounds as loud as fireworks or a jet engine, a new study says.. Danionella ...

Russia’s State-owned Rostec group has announced that its subsidiary, United Engine Corporation (UEC), had completed the first round of tests on a pulse-detonation technology demonstrator engine.
