The “engine” at King’s College London is contradicting thermodynamic laws—and could transform how we understand proteins and ...

Scientists have created the world's hottest engine running at temperatures hotter than those reached in the sun's core. The ...

Heat has always been something we thought we understood. From baking bread to running engines, the idea seemed simple: heat ...

The quantum advantage: Coherent superposition in quantum heat engines can enhance power output over classical machines. Credit: iStock Traffic-Analyzer Heat engines have had a huge impact on everyday ...

Evaluation of the combustion process in a wall-wetting direct-injection diesel was accomplished by calculation of the apparent rate of heat release from the measured pressure history for several ...

Heat is a byproduct of combustion. Both air-cooled and water-cooled engines need to dissipate that heat to keep the engine from running too hot. Can piston rings play a role in managing that heat?

Ytterbium silicide (Yb-Si) is a promising coating material for the high-temperature sections of aircraft gas turbine engines. Although Yb-Si is heat-resistant and prevents formation of structurally ...
