    Schematic diagram illustrating a 2-spool, high-bypass turbofan engine with an unmixed exhaust. The low-pressure spool is coloured green and the high-pressure one purple. Again, the fan (and booster stages) are driven by the low-pressure turbine, but more stages are required. A mixed exhaust is often employed.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Pratt & Whitney F119 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_F119

    The F119 is a twin-spool axial-flow low-bypass turbofan. It has a three-stage fan driven by a single-stage low pressure turbine and six-stage high pressure compressor driven by single-stage high pressure turbine.

  5. Pratt & Whitney J57 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_J57

    The J57 (first run January 1950 [1]) was the first 10,000 lbf (45 kN) thrust class engine in the United States. It is a two spool engine. The J57/JT3C was developed into the J52 turbojet, the J75/JT4A turbojet, the JT3D/TF33 turbofan, and the XT57 turboprop (of which only one was built). [2]

  6. Pratt & Whitney F100 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_&_Whitney_F100

    The F100 is a twin spool, axial flow, afterburning turbofan engine. It has a 3-stage fan driven by a two-stage low-pressure turbine and a 10-stage compressor driven by a two-stage high-pressure turbine.

  7. IHI Corporation XF9 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IHI_Corporation_XF9

    The XF9-1 is a twin-spool axial-flow afterburning turbofan with a dual redundant FADEC, consisting of a 3-stage fan, a 6-stage high-pressure compressor, an annular type combustor, a single-stage high-pressure turbine, a single-stage low-pressure turbine, an afterburner, and a convergent-divergent nozzle. The concept, slim and high-power ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Electric_YF120

    The General Electric YF120, internally designated as GE37, was a variable cycle afterburning turbofan engine designed by General Electric Aircraft Engines in the late 1980s and early 1990s for the United States Air Force's Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) program. It was designed to produce maximum thrust in the 35,000 lbf (156 kN) class.
