Solutions that could make the Russian PD-35 engine lighter and more fuel-efficient in the future have begun to be tested in Perm. Masters from Perm Polytechnic University developed a design, production technology, and manufactured a full-fledged prototype of a thrust reverser flap.
For high-thrust aircraft engines, every extra kilogram means increased fuel consumption and reduced aircraft payload.
Alexander Inozemtsev, General Director of ODK-Aviadvigatel, called this direction one of the most promising in modern engine building.
We are the only engine builders in the country, and possibly in the world, who are engaged in such solutions.
Today, composite materials are actively used in aircraft manufacturing.
However, the use of similar technologies directly in aircraft engine components remains extremely rare even among world industry leaders, including American GE Aerospace and British Rolls-Royce.
