Hybrid Hydrogen Turbo Fan Engine
Project Type: Self-Initiated
Project Description
The hybrid turbofan integrates an electric motor to power the fan alongside a standard turbojet core. This combination allows the engine to achieve higher fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, and quieter operation by utilizing the electric drive for supplementary, flexible thrust, particularly during constant-altitude cruising, leading to a more sustainable future for flight.
