Can I just add that the lock plates also act as sealing plates to prevent excessive under-platform leakage. This principle is very typically 'Derby', in respect of R-R engines. Compare and contrast this with what you will be familiar with on the (very Bristolian) Industrial Olympus LP turbine, which has a retaining tang at the front end of the firtree root and a little locking tab that gets bent over at the rear (the 593 LP turbine is exactly the same). With the design of the Olympus 'C' rated LPT blades, we had to stick sealing plates onto the front faces of the firtree roots, because, with the redesigned blades, the lug extensions at the back of the disc firtree lobes didn't provide adequate sealing.

Hi I'm really enjoying your vids. I'm not a machinist or mechanic but do enjoy high quality bits an pieces and the precision involved. I do have a question regarding high bypass fans on commercial airliners. I understand the workings but it appears to me that a lot of the hardware and plumbing of the engine itself is exposed to the flow of the fan. Is this the case and if so does this effect the smooth flow and expose components to damage? Cheers Rob
@AgentJayZ8 жыл бұрын
+05Cat28 Many newer airliner newer engines have a cowling around the core, but you are right - many earlier turbofans had a lot of drag-ey stuff just hanging out in the high speed breeze. This has puzzled a lot of us for years. The best person to answer that one is a turbine engine design engineer. I suspect one will magically appear soon to enlighten us...
@grahamj91018 жыл бұрын
+AgentJayZ Are you dropping a hint in my direction, AgentJayZ? All of the high by-pass turbofans, whether small, medium or large, that I have come across do have cowled/faired cores. Many of them (but not the R-R RB211/Trent range - and several others) have the gearbox and the accessories mounted on the core. It is both necessary (for protection) and beneficial (in terms of drag reduction) to have all that 'gubbins' (quaint UK English word!) covered by fairings. Equally, the low by-pass turbofans, whether ancient or modern, that I have come across typically do not have fairings around the core. However, all that 'gubbins' stuff is typically mounted on the outer casings and there are relatively fewer things in the way of the by-pass flow, which, in any case, is diffused to a lower velocity downstream of the fan. OK, there are a few fuel, oil and air tubes crossing the by-pass duct, plus a few flanges protruding into the by-pass flow. Nevertheless, some aerodynamicist and/or performance engineer (not me - I just designed the machinery) must have done the sums and decided that the losses weren't worth the trouble of the additional weight and cost of fairings. To digress slightly, I am aware of a Russian military turbofan that has a tubular air-to-air heat exchanger in its by-pass duct, which must cause significant blockage. The resultant losses must be worth the additional cooling available to the turbine (I assume), otherwise it wouldn't have been incorporated in the duct.

Doesn't bending the part and pounding it back in cause metal fatigue making it unusable for more than a couple rounds of overhauls? If installing it is that indelicate a process, how do you extract them in the first place? Does it equally require bending one out to get them all removed? And with what, a screwdriver? Also, I think I've watched virtually all of your videos and have never spotted the framed print I sent you.

@AgentJayZ8 жыл бұрын
+BillyNoMates1974 What is a zero stage? When an established design is updated and uprated, sometimes an additional stage is added to the front of the compressor to boost airflow. Instead of renaming all of the other stages so that the new stage is called "stage 1", the new stage is called stage zero. This avoids much confusion because all the parts that were already in the design keep the names they already have. So a zero stage is just a naming convention.
