Join us for an exciting update on the GT50 engine testing progress! Over the past month, we've achieved significant milestones, starting with the successful testing of the combustion efficiency.
13 Sep 2024
We're thrilled to report a peak combustion efficiency of around 99%, confirming that our design analysis is spot on. While some corners of the envelope need fine-tuning, we’re confident that the full combustion system tests will iron out these details.
We've completed the first build of the starter generator and the power management unit, ready for testing as soon as the rig is installed. We've also progressed with the speed reduction gearbox, releasing all components for production and designing a test rig to validate the gearbox's strength and reliability.
