Although 90% of the video is just a blurb for the manufacture of the engine, the heart of it in terms of technology is a VERY cool use of 3D printing to make jet engine parts.hagar said:
A futuristic jet engine is a type of aircraft propulsion system that uses advanced technology and design to improve efficiency, speed, and overall performance.
A futuristic jet engine works by compressing air and mixing it with fuel to create a controlled explosion. The resulting energy is used to power a turbine, which in turn rotates the compressor and fan blades, propelling the aircraft forward.
This jet engine is different from traditional ones because it utilizes cutting-edge materials, such as ceramic composites, and advanced designs, such as variable bypass ratios, to improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and increase speed and range.
While this jet engine has been successfully tested in prototype form, it is not yet being used in commercial aircraft. However, it is expected to eventually replace traditional jet engines in the future as technology and designs continue to be refined.
The potential benefits of using a futuristic jet engine include increased fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, improved performance and range, and potentially lower operating costs for airlines. It may also lead to faster and more comfortable flights for passengers.
