Features of PT6A Engine Which is A Main Variant of PT6 Engine
The PT6A engine family
continuous to advance, integrating the latest technologies in the
drive to exceed the expectations of our customers in reliability,
fuel consumption, performance, environmental friendliness, and
durability. More than sixty-nine PT6A engine models have been
produced which ranges shaft horsepower from 500 shp to 2,000 shp.
New
aerodynamic, as well as material technologies, have enabled the PT6
engine for gaining more power without considerably increasing in
size. Other innovations have increased the maintenance intervals,
reduced the emissions, and further enhanced ease of operation with
the introduction of digital electronic control to small gas turbine
engines.
The novel PT6A
configuration has been proved to be a key attribute to its success.
Its reverse flow inlet, rearward, and forward facing turbine section
providing quick maintenance which is turn-around through on-wing hot
section refurbishment in aircraft installations. The PT6A engine is a
two-shaft engine with a multi-stage compressor which is driven by a
single-stage compressor turbine and an independent shaft coupling the
power turbine to the propeller via an epicyclic concentric reduction
gear box.
The PT6A family of
engines which is the main variant
of PT6 engine represents three series of models with
increasing power levels, known as PT6A Small, Medium, and Large.
Through the increase of compressor air flow as well as increased
number of power turbine stages, the increased power levels are
achieved. The latest models enjoy the benefit of additional advanced
technologies in turbine cooling, materials, and aerodynamic design.
