The Turgo turbine is an impulse type turbine; water does not change pressure as it moves through the turbine blades. The water's potential energy is converted to kinetic energy with a nozzle. The high speed water jet is then directed on the turbine blades which deflect and reverse the flow.
The General Electric T64 is a free-turbine turboshaft engine that was originally developed for use on helicopters, but which was later used on fixed-wing aircraft as well. General Electric introduced the engine in 1964. The original engine design included technical innovations such as corrosion resistant and high-temperature coatings. [1]
A proposed 9,000 lbf (40 kN; 4,100 kgf) thrust version with a new high-pressure turbine ceramic-matrix composite tailcone [15] GMA 3010 / AE 3010 A 10,000 lbf (44.5 kN; 4,540 kgf) thrust variant, which was to power the Yakovlev Yak-77 twin-engine business jet [ 16 ] as a derated variant of the GMA 3012 with a 44 in diameter (112 cm) fan [ 17 ]

The PW 300 series has been developed in partnership with MTU who are responsible for the low pressure turbine. The first variant, the PW305A, has the following configuration and was designed with a core flexible enough for engines with take-off thrusts from 20 kN to 31 kN (4,500 to 7,000 lb): a single-stage fan driven by a three-stage low pressure turbine, supercharging a four-stage axial ...
Development commenced with a 1953 US Navy requirement for a helicopter turboshaft to weigh under 400 lb (180 kg) while delivering 800 hp (600 kW). The engine General Electric eventually built weighed only 250 lb (110 kg) and delivered 1,050 hp (780 kW) and was soon ordered into production.
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 LMS100 comprises a low-pressure compressor, an intercooler, a supercore and a power turbine. The supercore (comprising a HP compressor, compressor rear frame, high-pressure turbine and intermediate pressure turbine) is a further development of the LM6000, which in turn was based on the CF6-80C2. The low-pressure compressor is from the 6FA ...
