In order to determine a viable alternative to the contemporary gasoline engine the Federal Government has sponsored and continues to conduct extensive R&D under contractual arrangements on an Advanced Automotive Gas Turbine Engine. Ceramic materials have been introduced as components of the high temperature regions of the engine so as to increase the thermodynamic and hence the overall efficiency of the gas turbine engine.
