The Shenyang WS-10 ( Chinese : 涡扇-10; pinyin : Wōshàn-10; lit. 'turbofan-10'), codename Taihang, is a turbofan engine designed and built by the People's Republic of China . Chinese media reported 266 engines were manufactured from 2010 to 2012 for the J-11 program. [2] Unofficial estimates placed production at more than 300 units by May 2015.
2,162 kW (2,899 shp) Xian Y-7. A Turboprop engine based on the Ivchenko AI-24, built by the Dongan Engine Manufacturing Company (Harbin Engine Factory) in several variants. WJ-6. 3,170 kW (4,250 shp) Shaanxi Y-8, AVIC AG600. Turboprop engine; a license-built copy of the Ivchenko AI-20. WJ-9.
The Shenyang WS-15 (Chinese: 涡扇-15; pinyin: Wōshàn-15), codename Emei, is a Chinese afterburning turbofan engine designed by the Shenyang Aeroengine Research Institute and manufactured by the Shenyang Liming Aircraft Engine Company. The WS-15 is intended to power and enable supercruising on the J-20, improve its maneuverability and range ...
The J-10s intended engine is the Chinese Shenyang WS-10. The WS-10 suffered development difficulties and production of the aircraft went ahead with the Salyut AL-31FN as a substitute. A pre-production J-10C flew with a WS-10 at the 2018 China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition; the engine nozzle was modified for stealth and thrust ...
Analyst Andreas Rupprecht expressed skepticism regarding the use of Russian engines on the J-20, as he believes that the J-20 is using a variant of the WS-10, which he called the WS-10C. This engine has improved thrust, stealthier serrated afterburner nozzles, and higher reliability, but it is not designed for thrust vectoring, unlike the WS-10 ...
Guizhou WS-19. The Guizhou WS-19 ( Chinese: 涡扇-19 ), code name Huangshan, is an afterburner turbofan engine designed by the Guizhou Aeroengine Design Institute. It has a reported thrust-to-weight ratio of 10 and a thrust of 10 metric tons or 22,000 lbs. [1] [2] The WS-19 fits in the same footprint as the earlier Guizhou WS-13, but is of an ...
Shenyang WS-10. The Shenyang WS-20 ( Chinese: 涡扇-20; pinyin: Wōshàn-20; lit. 'turbofan-20') is a high- bypass turbofan aircraft engine designed by the Shenyang Aeroengine Research Institute for the PLAAF 's Y-20 family of strategic airlifters, currently installed in limited numbers. It is based on the core of the low-bypass turbofan ...
Testing may have started as early as 2002; an image from the 2002 China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition allegedly depicted a J-11 with one engine replaced with a WS-10. WS-10 development proved difficult. One regiment converted to WS-10-powered J-11Bs in 2007, but was grounded for an extended period due to poor operational ...
