Next-generation LNG carrier concept about 8% more energy efficient, with 5% more cargo

Green Car Congress

These developments were based on DNV GL’s integrated systems engineering approach COSSMOS; state-of-the-art computational fluid dynamics calculations (CFD); and a containment system design tailored to a specific operational profile and anticipated trades. GTT and HHI investigated cargo containment optimization.

EU investing >€3M in research into ultra-efficient aero engines; ULTIMATE project

Green Car Congress

A breakthrough reduction in core exhaust component losses can be achieved by technologies that substantially reduce the exit temperature in comparison with a state-of-the-art turbofan. Three technologies that might provide this benefit are: piston engine technology; nutating disc technology; and pulse detonation technology. Bypass flow loss.
