WELCOME All the calculations show it can't work. There's only one thing to do: make it work. — Pierre Georges Latécoère, early French aviation entrepreneur. The different types of airplane engines can be divided into three categories. Aircraft designers keep looking for ways to make planes go higher and faster on less fuel. Airplane Engine Background Ever since Wilber and Orville flew over the sands of North Carolina, aircraft designers have been trying different types of airplane engines. The purpose of airplane engines is to provide thrust to push an aircraft through the air and overcome the force of drag. Designers are concerned with the amount of power or thrust produced, the weight of the engines, fuel consumption and cost. The different types of aircraft engines have evolved into three main categories. Piston Engines The first airplane engines were of the piston or reciprocating type and this type of engine is still in use today. Piston engines were the o...

Aeronautical engineering is the deep study of “Aeronautics”. Aeronautics term has come from the ancient Greek word   “Aer”   which means   ‘Air’   and   “ Nautike ”   which means   ‘navigation of the air’ . Aerona...
