The continuous, yet incremental performance gains in high-efficiency gas turbine engines over the last eight decades has enabled passengers to travel long distances at high speeds. Modern commercial jet transports are so common that most passengers traveling by air today take the innovative developments of jet engine technologies for granted. However, the ever-increasing demands for travel in the 21st century has also brought an increased awareness of the energy and environmental concerns associated with aviation. Due to the forecasted limited supply of petroleum-based fuel sources and the global warming potential associated with emissions of traditional aircraft propulsion systems, the need for environmentally-responsible solutions in aircraft technology has been recognized as a priority in the development of future aircraft configurations.
