  2. Turbomeca Palouste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbomeca_Palouste

    The Turbomeca Palouste is a French gas turbine engine, first run in 1952. [1] Designed purely as a compressed air generator, the Palouste was mainly used as a ground-based aircraft engine starter unit. Other uses included rotor tip propulsion for helicopters.

  3. Solar T62 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_T62

    The Solar T62 Titan is an American gas turbine engine used mainly as a aircraft auxiliary power unit (APU), conventional power generator, turboprop engine for fixed-wing aircraft or turboshaft engine for helicopters. A new turbine version was developed as the Solar T66.

    An interesting feature of all three German jet engine designs that saw production of any kind before May 1945: the German BMW 003, Junkers Jumo 004 and Heinkel HeS 011 axial-flow turbojet engine designs was the starter system, which consisted of a Riedel 10 hp (7.5 kW) flat twin two-stroke air-cooled engine hidden in the intake, and essentially ...

  5. Auxiliary power unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auxiliary_power_unit

    The first German jet engines built during the Second World War used a mechanical APU starting system designed by the German engineer Norbert Riedel.It consisted of a 10 horsepower (7.5 kW) two-stroke flat engine, which for the Junkers Jumo 004 design was hidden in the intake diverter, essentially functioning as a pioneering example of an auxiliary power unit for starting a jet engine.

  6. Air-start system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-start_system

    Air impingement starting was not used for US military aircraft after the F-4B, A-5A [6] and F-5 as the pneumatic energy requirement was several times greater than when using an air turbine starter. The gas turbine compressor required to start a J79 with impingement starting was sufficient to start two J79 engines simultaneously in a B-58 when ...

  7. Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_Canada_PT6

    All versions of the engine consist of two sections that can be easily separated for maintenance: a gas generator supplies hot pressurized gas to a free power turbine. [20] The starter has to accelerate only the gas generator, making the engine easy to start, particularly in cold weather. [20]

  8. General Electric LM6000 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Electric_LM6000

    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.

  9. 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 ...
