  2. Pratt & Whitney JT8D - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_JT8D

    The JT8D is an axial-flow front turbofan engine incorporating a two-spool design. There are two coaxially-mounted independent rotating assemblies: one rotating assembly for the low pressure compressor (LPC) which consists of the first six stages (i.e. six pairs of rotating and stator blades, including the first two stages which are for the bypass turbofan), driven by the second (downstream ...

    Other noise sources are the fan, compressor and turbine. [29] Modern commercial aircraft employ high-bypass-ratio (HBPR) engines with separate flow, non-mixing, short-duct exhaust systems. Their noise at takeoff is primarily from the fan and jet. [30] The primary source of jet noise is the turbulent mixing of shear layers in the engine's exhaust.

  4. Pratt & Whitney PW1000G - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_PW1000G

    The PW1500G variant, designed for the Airbus A220, became the first certified engine in 2013. The program cost is estimated at $10 billion. Unlike traditional turbofan engines where a single shaft connects all components, forcing them to operate at the same speed, the PW1000G has a gearbox between the fan and the low-pressure core. This allows ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_F100

    The Pratt & Whitney F100 (company designation JTF22 [1]) is a low bypass afterburning turbofan engine. It was designed and manufactured by Pratt & Whitney to power the U.S. Air Force's "FX" initiative in 1965, which became the F-15 Eagle.

    The -5 model was certified in 1982, and a decade later, an engine utilizing the TFE731-5 power section and a TFE731-3 fan was built and designated the TFE731-4, intended to power the Cessna Citation VII aircraft. [4] The most recent version is the TFE731-50, based on the -60 used on the Falcon 900DX, which underwent its flight test program in ...

  7. Geared turbofan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geared_turbofan

    A large part of the noise reduction is due to reduced fan tip speeds. In conventional turbofans the fan tips exceed the speed of sound causing a characteristic drone, requiring sound deadening. Geared turbofans operate the fan at sufficiently low rotational speed to avoid supersonic tip speeds. [2]

  8. Pratt & Whitney JT3D - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_JT3D

    A 2-stage fan replaced the first 3 stages of the 9-stage JT3C LP compressor. On the LP turbine, the second stage was enlarged and a third stage added. Unlike GE with the CJ805-23, Pratt & Whitney had not undertaken any transonic fan research prior to designing the JT3D, so they were unable to incorporate a single stage unit into the ...

  9. CFM International CFM56 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFM_International_CFM56

    The fan diameter varies with the different models of the CFM56, and that change has a direct impact on the engine performance. For example, the low-pressure shaft rotates at the same speed for both the CFM56-2 and the CFM56-3 models; the fan diameter is smaller on the -3, which lowers the tip speed of the fan blades.
