Development and testing of advanced engine technologies is a staple in the gas turbine industry. Here, List reports the collaborative efforts for advanced materials, improved production and maintenance capabilities, affordability and development of new research facilities. Efforts include the test conducted by the General Electric and the US Air Force Research Laboratory of the world's first three-stream, adaptive-cycle engine under the Adaptive Versatile Engine Technology or ADVENT program, which recorded the highest combined turbine compressor temperatures to date. The engine also featured the industry's most expansive use of ceramic matrix composite in the hot section. In addition, Rolls-Royce joined Airbus and Qatar Airways to mark first Airbus A350 XWB to enter service in January, powered by Trent XWB engines, the world's most efficient large civil aero engine.
