  6. Variable-pitch propeller (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-pitch_propeller...

    When an aircraft is stationary with the propeller spinning (in calm air), the relative wind vector for each propeller blade is from the side. However, as the aircraft starts to move forward, the relative wind vector comes increasingly from the front. The propeller blade pitch must be increased to maintain optimum angle of attack to the relative ...

    These blades provided double the strength at one-third the weight of traditional titanium fan blades. The 22 fan blades were a significant reduction from the 38 blades used in GE's prior large turbofan, the CF6, despite the 30-inch (760 mm) greater diameter of the GE90. Having fewer fan blades reduces the engine weight and improves aerodynamic ...

    Its 118.2 in (300 cm) fan with 18 reversing pitch composite blades had a 15:1 bypass ratio. It aimed to cut fuel consumption by 6–7%, emissions by 15%, and generate less noise due to lower fan tip speed of 950 ft/s (290 m/s), down from 1,400 ft/s (430 m/s) in conventional 5:1 bypass turbofans.
