According to the latest research, the global Aircraft Piston Engines market size was valued at USD 4589.86 million in 2022 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of -46.76% during the forecast period, reaching USD 104.58 million by 2028.
An aircraft piston engine, also commonly referred to as a reciprocating engine or "recip", is an internal combustion engine that uses one or more reciprocating pistons to convert pressure into a rotational motion. The aircraft piston engine operates on the same principles as the engines found in most automobiles. However, modifications, such as dual ignition systems, to improve redundancy and safety, and air cooling to reduce weight, have been incorporated into engines designed for aviation use. Turbochargers and, less commonly, superchargers can be added to piston engines to improve performance. The report mainly studies the global aircraft piston engines (above 100hp) market.
Opportunities and Drivers
Aircraft, as the most important means of transportation at present, is an indispensable part of social transportation. Aircraft Piston Engines rely on the reciprocating motion of the piston in the cylinder to make the gas working medium complete the thermodynamic cycle, convert the chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, and then drive the propeller to rotate at high speed to generate thrust. Engine power is proportional to the third power of flight speed. With the increase of flight speed, higher requirements are put forward for engine power. Piston engine is no longer qualified for high-speed flight because of its working principle and structure limitations. Due to the power limitation of piston engine, the efficiency of aircraft will decrease when flying at high speed, so Piston Engine Aircraft is only suitable for flying at low speed, and Piston Engine Aircraft has gradually withdrawn from the main aviation battlefield. Nowadays, piston engines are mostly used in light aircraft and ultralight aircraft, which are not suitable for military operations.
Because of the advantages of high efficiency, low fuel consumption and low price, Aircraft Piston Engines still have some advantages in small low-speed generalpurpose aircraft with low power demand. In addition, due to the complete combustion, the pollution to the environment is relatively small, and the noise is lower than that of jet engines. Piston engines are still widely used in small business jets, agricultural aircraft, branch lines and some small multipurpose transport planes (forest fire fighting, search, rescue and patrol, etc.).
Although it can't be compared with the powerful thrust of gas turbine engines carried by large civil aircraft, Aircraft Piston Engines have many advantages that turbine engines can't replace. The price of turbine engine providing powerful thrust is high oil consumption. The oil consumption of turbine engine in the starting process generally reaches about 80% of the total power, and the response mechanism of turbine engine is poor. It takes a
