A Formula 1 rules revolution is making cars lighter and smaller for 2026, with more electrical power. After the biggest ...

AI data centers face grid delays and turbine shortages, pushing developers toward gas reciprocating engines for fast, scalable gigawatt power.

Engineers at UC Davis have built a remarkable device that creates power at night by tapping into something we rarely think ...

Despite its critics and moves toward electrification, the internal combustion engine is not yet dead. Though its design for passenger vehicles may have begun to reach its apex with Mazda’s Skyactiv ...

We are used to heat flowing from hot objects to cool ones, and never the other way round, but now researchers have found it is possible to pull off this trick in the strange realm of quantum mechanics ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. There are many V6 and V8 engines that use camshafts located within the engine block and pushrods to activate overhead valves. In those engines ...

We install a simple engine heat exchanger that turns wasted engine heat into warm air for the cabin. It runs whenever the engine is on, costs almost nothing to operate, and adds serious comfort in ...

Millions of people in southeastern Australia are sweating through a record-breaking heat wave. The heat this week is likely to be one for the history books. The heat began on Saturday January 24th. On ...

A long-standing law of thermodynamics turns out to have a loophole at the smallest scales. Researchers have shown that quantum engines made of correlated particles can exceed the traditional ...

Diesel engines produce massive amounts of wasted heat, especially in cold regions. Instead of letting it escape, this setup redirects engine coolant through a simple air heater. The result is powerful ...

Physicists have shown that a cornerstone of thermodynamics, the Carnot efficiency limit, breaks down at the atomic scale when quantum correlations come into play. Their results suggest that ...

Q: Jaime Jaquez Jr. is Exhibit A on why you shouldn’t give up on young talent and trade it for over-the-hill “whales.” The growth curve isn’t always linear, but eventually the patience is rewarded and ...
