The PW530 has a single stage fan, driven by a 2-stage LP turbine, supercharging a 2A/1CF axial-centrifugal HP compressor, driven by a single stage HP turbine. Although similar in configuration, the PW535 has a booster stage, mounted on the LP shaft behind the fan, to increase overall pressure ratio and core flow.
The Stratos 714 is an American very light jet aircraft under development by Stratos Aircraft of Redmond, Oregon.The project was announced in July 2008, a prototype first flew on 21 November 2016, although Stratos currently lacks the funding to complete type certification.
The FJ33 has a dry weight of less than 300 lb (140 kg), overall diameter of 18.36 in (466 mm), 38.43 in (976 mm) overall length, and produces between 1,000 lbf (4,400 N) and 1,800 lbf (8,000 N) static thrust.
The 7,500 lbf (33 kN) thrust engines powered the A-9A prototypes for seven months of flight tests in 1972, recording 238 flights and 652 flight hours. [3] These engines were later reused in the C-8A Quiet Short-Haul Research Aircraft (QSRA). The commercial ALF 502D engine was developed from the military YF102 in 1971.
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 ...
It produces 14,000 to 20,000 lbf (62 to 89 kN) of thrust, a range previously covered by the General Electric CF34. A smaller scaled CFM LEAP , it is a twin-spool axial engine with a 5.6:1 bypass ratio and a 45:1 overall pressure ratio and is noted for its large one-piece 52 in (130 cm) fan 18-blade titanium blisk .
Outoing FBI director Christopher Wray said he decided to step down because it was clear President-elect Trump “intended to make a change” with the agency. “My decision to retire from the FBI ...
The British versions of the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II (designated Phantom FG.Mk.1 and FGR.Mk.2) replaced the 16,000 lb wet thrust J79 turbojets with a pair of 20,515 lb wet thrust Spey 201 turbofans. These provided extra thrust for operation from smaller British aircraft carriers, and provided additional bleed air for the boundary layer ...
