GE90: I set the world record for the most powerful thrust produced during testing GE9X: Hold my throttle

@marksandstrom42485 жыл бұрын
the GE9X actually makes less thrust than GE90-115B, because the new wing of 777X improves performance enough to reduce thrust requirements

Mark Sandstrom what I was stating was at triple red line testing
@犬井いぬい5 жыл бұрын
Mark Sandstrom GE9X is able to produce more thrust than GE90 when pushed to the limit. They just proved that during testing. The lower thrust rating is in place to prolong engine lifetime and save fuel since the lighter 777X doesn’t need that much power
@marksandstrom42485 жыл бұрын
@@犬井いぬい are you sure that GE90-115B at triple redline makes less thrust than GE9X at triple redline? Neither would be a case that has anything to do with real operation in commercial service. And if the 9X's capability were that much, it would tend to indicate an over-designed engine that is either heavier and/or more expensive than it needs to be.

I’m not sure if it’s entirely accurate to state a 747 needs all cf6’s to stay airborne. Sure it would struggle to take off on a normal runway with say 2 or 3 engines, but once at cruise it can cope.
@andys28315 жыл бұрын
Hi....all multi-engine commercial a/c have to be able to perform with one engine in-operative. Hence on take-off the certificated performance includes assuming one engine fails (usually at V1 speed as most critical point).....so the 747 can take-off on three, the 777 on one engine etc. This is why with all engines operating (hopefully always) the twins typically climb faster than quads. Not everything about quads is bad, a twin with an engine failure HAS TO divert to the nearest airfield, whereas as legally a quad with one engine out can continue to destination or elsewhere
@marksandstrom42484 жыл бұрын
just as an intellectual exercise (it would be foolhardy plus illegal to actually do it) I'm curious about the case of 1-engine-out starting right at brake release at the beginning of the runway, at an offloaded gross weight and optimal center of gravity. but then you'd have to think about the case of unexpectedly losing one additional engine during that takeoff, and the exercise ends up being just chasing your tail... Possibly the true answer is, we cannot know.

I went to Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) training at the Customer Technical Education Center (CTEC) in Cincinnati in 1997 for the CF6. I was working on the KC-10 at the time. We got side information on the GE90 while there. There was also an ex test engine for training available on-site too. Those four foot plus long blades weigh nothing, especially compared to any other metallic fan blade. One of the other things they told us at the time was, when the first it went to the take off power setting in the test cell. The expected thrusted was supposed to be around 90K plus. Instead it exceeded 100k and they were just getting started. Oh yeah, Go Duke!

Maybe a new design based on one of these airframes would make more sense, but anyway, it would put these very large jets in a whole new category of efficiency.

The new GE9X which is going to be used on the 777X recently proved to even more powerful than the GE90. The GE90 produces 128,000 lbs of thrust and that’s a lot, but the GE9X put out over 134,000 lbs of thrust on a test. The GE9X is the NEW most powerful engine!

I always had the doubt of why the GE9X would produce less thrust. Now that doubt is gone

Only 16 fan blades on the GE9x.. amazing.

I remember when I was a kid in the 90s and seeing a 777 for the first time. I remember how massive the engines were at the time. My dad told me those were taller than a tall man and they were the most powerful engines in the world. I guess he wasn’t kidding.
