Recently, China's self-developed 1,000-kilowatt civilian vortex engine has achieved 100% design speed operation in Zhuzhou, Hunan. The engine runs smoothly and all operating parameters are normal.
The 1,000-kilowatt civilian vortex engine is the first civil vortex engine developed independently in China in accordance with international airworthiness standards. It employs advanced compressors, turbine aerodynamic design and bearing common cavity, under-ring oil supply, and integrated accessories. Transmission and other structural design techniques, will be equipped with 5-ton helicopters.
The 1,000-kilowatt civilian turboshaft engine realizes 100% design speed and stable operation of the whole machine. It effectively validates the matching of all components and systems in the entire speed range, basically understands the rotor dynamics and vibration laws, and initially proves that the structural layout is reasonable. Sex, lays a solid foundation for follow-up research work.
