Thrust, Power & Transmission

Thrust Measurement Testcells are systems used to measure the thrust of turbojet and turbofan engines. Since the primary purpose of these engines is to generate thrust, thrust measurement testcells are typically used as the test systems where the initial tests of the engine are conducted. Through these systems, critical data such as thrust values, specific fuel consumption, vibration, temperature, and pressure are obtained. This data provides design[…]

In aviation engines and aircraft, gearboxes generally provide power transmission and speed conversion. Particularly in helicopters, the main gearbox (MGB – Main Gearbox), intermediate gearbox (IGB – Intermediate Gearbox), and tail gearbox (TGB – Tail Gearbox) are critical components that transmit the power generated by the engine to the rotors and other systems. These gearboxes are exposed to challenging operating conditions such as high power density, extreme[…]
