Publication Date 1989
Personal Author Hill, R.
Page Count 5
Abstract The PW300, a modern high bypass turbofan, is addressed. It will initially have a takeoff thrust of about 22 KN (5,000 Lbf) and compared to existing turbofans of this class will offer up to a 20 percent reduction in specific fuel consumption. A technical description of each engine component is given as well as an explanation of how the exceptional performance is achieved. The growth potential and derivative versions of the engine are discussed.
