Cutaway showing the configuration : 1 fan, 2A+1C HP compressor, 1 HP and 2 LP turbine Type Turbofan: National origin: Canada: Manufacturer Pratt & Whitney Canada: First run November 1993 [1] Major applications: Cessna Citation II Bravo Cessna Citation V Encore Cessna 560XL Embraer Phenom 300 MQ-20 Avenger: Number built: 4,600 (May 2023) [2]
GA-ASI's design is larger than the Sea Avenger and is powered by the Pratt & Whitney PW815 high-bypass turbofan, the same engine used on the Gulfstream G600. Generating 16,000 lb (7,300 kg) of thrust, it is four times more powerful than the Predator C's PW545B turbofan, [31] and the most powerful engine used by any Stingray competitor. [32]
[1] The Citation XLS was the first "makeover" that the Excel received, with deliveries beginning in 2004. Besides a glass cockpit based on the Honeywell Primus 1000 EFIS avionics suite, the XLS featured the upgraded PW545B engines with increased performance. [4] It was produced in 330 units. [1] By 2018, ten year old XLS models were trading ...
The Pratt & Whitney PW1000G family, also marketed as the Pratt & Whitney GTF (geared turbofan), is a family of high-bypass geared turbofan engines produced by Pratt & Whitney. Following years of development and testing on various demonstrators, the program officially launched in 2008 with the PW1200G destined for the Mitsubishi SpaceJet (a ...
Its goal was to improve thrust specific fuel consumption by 12% compared to a GE CF6-50C. [1] Both General Electric and Pratt & Whitney produced turbofans for the program. The GE core featured a 23:1 high-pressure (HP) ratio ten-stage HP compressor, [2] later used in the GE90 and GEnx. P&W also used a ten-stage HP compressor in their core, but ...
The Pratt & Whitney Canada PW800 is a series of turbofan engines in the 10,000–20,000 lbf (44–89 kN) thrust class, manufactured by Pratt & Whitney Canada. Intended for the regional jet and business jet market, the gear-less PW800 shares a common core with the larger, geared PW1000G .
On 3 August 1991, Pratt & Whitney was awarded the EMD contract for ATF engine, while the Lockheed/Boeing/General Dynamics team won the contract for the ATF airframe. While the YF119 was a more conventional design compared to the General Electric's variable cycle YF120, Pratt & Whitney accrued far greater test hours (50% more) and emphasized ...
The "H" model of the B-52 was the only production variant of the heavy bomber to be fitted with turbofan engines, and is the only model remaining in United States Air Force service. It is expected to remain as a mainstay of the Air Force heavy bomber fleet until at least 2040, with options for replacing the 8 TF33 engines with more modern ...
