Researchers from NASA and GE Aerospace have conducted a power extraction test of a hybrid aircraft engine being developed under the space agency’s Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core, or HyTEC, program.
The race to find better, more fuel-efficient ways of moving about the planet is most visible in the automotive industry, but other sectors of transportation are rapidly catching up. Especially the ...
Initial ground trials of a hybrid-electric engine demonstrator support NASA's Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core (HyTEC) project.
To an untrained eye, the aircraft engine sitting outside of a Cincinnati facility in December might have looked like standard ...
It's been a while since we've heard anything relevant happening on the HyTEC front, but the wait seems to have been worth it: NASA's effort to reinvent the core of jet engines got a major boost this ...
GE Aerospace recently started test running the Passport-turbofan-based hybrid-electric propulsion system it developed under NASA’s Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core (HyTEC) programme, one of several ...
