Understanding Helicopter's Engine | Turboshaft

A turboshaft engine acts as the powerhouse of modern helicopters. They are also used for power generation and marine propulsion! This video will illustrate the inner-workings of turboshaft engines in a clear and logical way.

    From a non-expert perspective, the turbo shaft engine have so many movable parts that is easy to fail. However, i read in the report of a recent helicopter crash, that killed a famous brazilian journalist, the main cause was due to lack of maintenance of the compressor rotor for more than 30 years. Its impressive that such a complex engine worked more than 3 decades without maintenance.

    There are more parts in a piston aircraft engine, and the reciprocating motion of a piston engine creates an extraordinary amount of wear on the machine, causing vibration and eventually, damage. I'll take a turbine any day.

    Great job mentioning the viarable pitch blades. However, not every engine uses these. For example, the T55 actually uses what's called a bleed band. A small metal band controlled by an actuator and it goes on the outside of the compressor case half. This gives the pilot control over being able to bleed some air if the pressure in the axial compression stage is still too much for the centrifugal stage while initiating runup.

How is this achieved? That proportion of air used for cooling is surprising. I wonder what the effect would be upon the engine if we had a material that did not require this level of cooling.

    Fuel comes from a high flow injector at the base of the flame in their diagram. The air/fuel mixture is first ignited by a large set of what are basically spark plugs when the engine is first turned on. After this the burning fuel/air mixture stays lit in the same manner that a gas lamp does.

    It's a case of counterintuitiveness. Yes the stators would hold back airflow but probably not as much as it would appear to. And they are necessary cos it makes the other blades so much more efficient that it more than off-sets the resistance of the stators (resulting in an overall advantage).

    Marek Vedral Nice observation. We should see things critically to learn better. I myself am not an expert but I have studied a little and try to explain. The short answer is "the impulse turbine". In a turbine, pressure and velocity are constantly being manipulated to squeeze out as much energy as possible. The stator blades are shaped like nozzles and convert pressure energy to kinetic energy(speed). If you have no resistance you have no nozzle and you can't change pressure energy to kinetic energy. Now that we have kinetic energy we have to absorb it in the blades. The less kinetic energy we leave to the outbound air the better. For that they use the impulse turbine design. It is done by directing the nozzle jet at high angle of attack on the blade. To slow the gases down as much as possible. This way they are able to absorb more energy. Obviously there is much more into that. But that was a simple explanation.

    "compressor stalls can be cause by low air speed" what kinds of conditions, exactly, would cause this in a helicopter? considering that they are all designed to hover ("zero airspeed")

    Probably low propeller speed.

    Compressor stall means more air going into the engine that it can handle and chokes on that amount. Just like eating to much. You can vent the extra air sucked in at the latter stages of the compressor. Variable stator blades do the same thing.

    At what RPM are all these components spinning at individually?

    TheFlacker99 (Flak) every single engine is different from another, however most turboshaft engines can have the power shaft spinning at nearly + 10000 RPMs. Since the rotor blades have their tangential velocity under the speed of sound due to structural limitations and because of the airfoil principle, a gear box is necessary to reduce the RPMs to an average 310 RPMs which is the most common angular frequency for helicopter rotors.

    Depends on the application. Most turboshaft and turboprop engines can have RPMs upwards of 15,000 rpms. As stated before, they are connected to a gearbox to reduce that output. Turbofan and turbojet engines can be over 25,000 rpms and don't require any kind of gearbox. Small model plane turbine engines that are generally centrifugal type jet engines can exeed 100,000 rpms.
