0930-1045 hrs
Interest is building in technology growth areas such as hypersonics, commercial supersonic, and electric/hybrid-electric. But there are still exciting advances to be made in core gas turbine technologies and in integration of components into optimized systems and sub-systems. The panelists will discuss the challenges of continuing to improve gas turbine technologies when there is competition for limited resources in this time of opportunity for the industry.
