N.B. for those interested in the Physics...On the GE90-115B there are different specifications for different operators. Some airlines, such as Emirates as just one example, have some of them rated 'H' (for Hot and High altitude operations). Thermodynamics of this engine with full load and in Hot and High density altitude conditions requires a reduction from Max thrust after about 3mins+ as the EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature) will likely exceed max thermodynamics of the engine after this time....hence the significant (audible) for pax sound of the engines reducing to 'climb' power after takeoff. Effectively, the engine would 'melt' theoretically after much more than 3mins+ at Max thrust in a Hot and High density altitude. (Apologies if this factoid is boring/nerdy to some). N1 Fan Blade length is also increased at micrometer dimensions for the 'H' version of this engine (perhaps other variants, like 'G' also). This miniscule addition to front fan blades can be heard (subtly) and it is intended to cope with things like, for example, sand and dust wear as experienced in the Middle East. So, the different variants have (barely audible) differences and depending on the thrust settings on the actual take-off requirements of the day/flight. Hope this is helpful to those interested...the manufacturers (Several companies apart from GE) generally don't make this info available to the public.

Fun fact: the largest and most powerful jet engine ever built wasn’t some classified one-off prototype built by the Cold-War-era Soviet Union for military applications, but it’s actually a modern turbofan that is widely used on a widespread civilian airliner and that has proven reliable and efficient for an engine of its power.

Glad that GE90-115B was chosen as the exclusive 777-300ER/200LR/F engine. I remember Rolls Royce were designing a Trent 8000 to power these aircraft and compete with GE90-115B but wonder what happened to that engine. Apparently even Pratt and Whitney were working on a more powerful and efficient variant of PW4000 to get to power the 77W and 77L.
@noblegoldheart85082 жыл бұрын
Rolls Royce and Pratt & Whitney were two of the three companies Boeing looked to when they were first building the 777. Rolls Royce did make an engine of their own, and so did Pratt & Whitney, but it was General Electric GE90 that won the competition for which engine would power the 777. As far as what happened to the other engines, I don't have any information about that.

The engineering of the engine itself is amazing enough. But designing and qualifying a facility to do this kind of testing is also pretty amazing. Accounting for, in all aspects of the facility design and construction, the acoustical energy, the vibrations, providing fuel and air, "quieting" the exhaust, reacting the forces involved, accounting for safe handling of engine failure cases in the test cell--say a fan blade lets go--amazing!

What’s cool about this about this particular sequence is that you will never actually hear it on a commercial aircraft. When setting takeoff thrust the pilots move the throttles to an intermediate thrust setting for a few moments and check both engines spool up together. This is so that they don’t end up having one engine go to a high thrust and the other one not (on a twin) as that could cause loss of lateral control.

Two of these engines pointed down would turn a Boeing 737 into a helicopter that could take off vertically. Heaviest 737 variant I'm aware of is a little under 200,000 pounds. Two GE90-115 engines make 230,000 pounds of thrust. One GE90-115 is worth about four F16 fighter plane engines with their afterburner on.
