A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor. This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor. A map is created from compressor rig test results or predicted by a special computer program.
Rolls-Royce based the ten-stage high-pressure compressor on an eight-stage run in the RB401 in the mid 1970's followed by a nine-stage run in the RJ.500. The V.2500 would use ten stages, with the first four with variable stators, giving a pressure ratio of 20:1. [4] A single-stage booster was also part of the original configuration.
The Rolls-Royce–Bentley L-series V8 engine is an engine introduced in 1959. Built in Crewe, it was used on most Rolls-Royce and Bentley automobiles in the four decades after its introduction, with its final application being the Bentley Mulsanne which ended production in 2020.
Rolls Royce Goblin II numbered cutaway; the impeller of the centrifugal compressor is number 12. The very first jet engines used centrifugal compressors and they are still used on small turbojets and turbo shaft engines. The key component that makes a compressor centrifugal is the centrifugal impeller which contains a rotating set of blades.
A company's place on the matrix depends on two dimensions – the process structure/process lifecycle and the product structure/product lifecycles. [1] The process structure/process lifecycle is composed of the process choice (job shop, batch, assembly line, and continuous flow) and the process structure (jumbled flow, disconnected line flow, connected line flow and continuous flow).

The Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 is a high-bypass turbofan engine produced by Rolls-Royce, one of the two engine options for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, competing with the General Electric GEnx. It first ran on 14 February 2006 and first flew on 18 June 2007 before a joint EASA/FAA certification on 7 August 2007 and entered service on 26 October 2011.
Rolls-Royce Holdings plc is a British multinational aerospace and defence company incorporated in February 2011. The company owns Rolls-Royce, a business established in 1904 which today designs, manufactures and distributes power systems for aviation and other industries.
BAe became aware of work by British engine manufacturer Rolls-Royce on a suitable engine, and soon conceived of an unmanned, fully reusable single-stage-to-orbit (SSTO) winged spaceplane as a launch vehicle. [2] Thus, the project had soon become a joint venture between BAe and Rolls-Royce, led by John Scott-Scott and Bob Parkinson. [2]
