Where does bypass air go on a turbofan?
Bypass air goes around the engine core, but still passes through the engine cowling.
N1 on a turbofan is
N1 is the speed of the first spool of a two-spool engine, which on a turbofan is the big fan on the front.
How much weights 1 gallon of Jet A on pounds?
Jet A weighs 6.8 pounds per gallon.
Which of these two parts spin around the engine core in a turbine compressor section?
The rotor blades spin around the engine. Stators can be static or variable, but they don’t rotate around the engine. They pivot based on required airflow and compression.
Almost all modern turbofan engines found on airliners have
Axial flow engines compress air by moving it through smaller and smaller stages of the compressor, which is how almost all turbofan engines work.
What’s a compressor stall?
A compressor stall is a local disruption of airflow in the engine. They can range in severity from a small drop in power to a complete loss of compression.
