Beschreibung
For the understanding of the operation of gas turbine engines used in aircraft, it is not enough to understand the basic operation of a gas turbine. It is also necessary to understand the operation and the design of its systems. This book provides an introduction to the systems of modern commercial turbofan engines. It is made for the reader who is familiar with the basics of aircraft gas turbine engine operation and is preparing him- or herself for the first engine type training. This book also offers a basic orientation through the numerous tubes, lines and system components installed on a complex turbofan engine.
Within this book you will find information on the operation of engine systems, the functions of their components and the terminology used throughout the industry. The engine systems are explained using examples selected from today’s engines. As a result, you will be made familiar with the current technology in this field. The examples include various engines from different manufacturers. Even if you have no engineering background, this book will provide you with comprehensible information and will help you to acquire a deeper knowledge of the operating principles at work in the systems of commercial turbofan engines. It is useful for the aircraft mechanic, the engineering student and for the student pilot.
To understand the operation of aircraft gas turbine engines, it is not enough to know the basic operation of a gas turbine. It is also necessary to understand the operation and the design of its auxiliary systems. This book fills that need by providing an introduction to the operating principles underlying systems of modern commercial turbofan engines and bringing readers up to date with the latest technology. It also offers a basic overview of the tubes, lines, and system components installed on a complex turbofan engine. Readers develop a deeper understanding of engine systems by following detailed examples that describe engines from different manufacturers. The text is recommended for aircraft engineers and mechanics, aeronautical engineering students, and pilots.
Shows the design and operation of the systems of modern turbofan engines The reader with the knowledge of basic engine operation gets the additional knowledge to understand the operation of the complete aircraft engine as it is installed on an aircraft. This is shown by photos and system schematics The examples are selected from different engines of different manufacturers. So the reader gets an overview over the designs principles of different manufacturers Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
