The CF6-80C2 is currently certified on fifteen commercial and military widebody aircraft models including the Boeing 747-400, and McDonnell Douglas MD-11. The CF6-80C2 is also certified for ETOPS-180 for the Airbus A300, Airbus A310, Boeing 767, KC-767A/J, E-767J, Kawasaki C-2, and (as the F138) the Lockheed C-5M Super Galaxy and VC-25A.
An iron roughneck is a piece of hydraulic machinery used to "handle" (connect and disconnect) segments of pipe in a modern drilling rig. [1] The segments can be manipulated as they are hoisted into and out of a borehole .
The General Electric LM6000 is a turboshaft aeroderivative gas turbine engine. The LM6000 is derived from the CF6-80C2 aircraft turbofan.It has additions and modifications designed to make it more suitable for marine propulsion, industrial power generation, and marine power generation use.
The General Electric TF39 is a high-bypass turbofan engine that was developed to power the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy.The TF39 was the first high-power, high-bypass jet engine developed.
When Airbus launched its A330 twin-jet in June 1987, its only engine options included the General Electric CF6-80C2 and the Pratt & Whitney PW4000. [4] Rolls-Royce was studying whether to launch a RB211-700, 65,000 lbf (290 kN) development of the RB211 for the A330, the long-range Boeing 767 and McDonnell Douglas MD-11, derived from the Boeing 747-400's -524D4D, with growth potential to 70,000 ...
Klimov TV3-117 turboshaft engine. The accessory drive is the large casting on the top. The accessory drive is a gearbox that forms part of a gas turbine engine. [1] Although not part of the engine's core, it drives the accessories – such as generators, pumps for fuel and lubrication oil, air compressors, hydraulic pumps and engine starters – that are otherwise essential for the operation ...
A useful macroscopic model that combines an electric field with DLA was developed by Niemeyer, Pietronero, and Weismann in 1984, and is known as the dielectric breakdown model (DBM). [7] Although the electrical breakdown mechanisms of air and PMMA plastic are considerably different, the branching discharges turn out to be related.
Thrust-specific fuel consumption (TSFC) is the fuel efficiency of an engine design with respect to thrust output. TSFC may also be thought of as fuel consumption (grams/second) per unit of thrust (newtons, or N), hence thrust-specific.
