Description
Florida Turbine Technologies (FTT) will design a low pressure spool for a Low Cost High Efficiency Attritable (LCHEA) turbofan engine. Completing the low pressure spool design and testing the engine will provide the Department of Defense (DoD) with engine capability that does not currently exist from a cost, performance and reliability perspective.The low pressure spool is integral to the performance of the engine in that it provides a moderate bypass ratio for improved fuel consumption and higher mass flow for increased thrust, and it will be designed to be flexible to accommodate thrust and performance targets required for future attritable platforms.Advanced manufacturing concepts will be explored during the design of the LP spool to reduce development and production costs of the LCHEA engine.
