Renewable Aviation Fuel Combustion Simulator

Interactive jet-engine combustion simulator: watch fuel burn through the Brayton cycle in a cutaway turbine, compare Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) against fossil kerosene, and see cycle efficiency and lifecycle CO2 update live on a pressure-volume diagram.

This simulator cuts a jet engine open along its axis so you can watch the Brayton cycle happen in real time: air is compressed, fuel burns in the combustor, and the hot expanding gas spins the turbine on its way out. Switch between fossil kerosene and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) to compare their combustion, then adjust the compressor's pressure ratio and the fuel flow to see how each reshapes the live pressure-volume diagram, the cycle's thermodynamic efficiency, and the lifecycle CO2 emitted per unit of energy — the numbers behind the aviation industry's push toward drop-in renewable fuels.

⚙ Under the hood

Watch a cutaway jet engine run the Brayton cycle in real time: compare Sustainable Aviation Fuel against fossil kerosene, tune compression ratio and fuel flow, and see cycle efficiency and lifecycle CO2 update live on a pressure-volume diagram.
