    English: Diagram of a typical gas turbine jet engine (in English). Air is compressed by the fan blades as it enters the engine, and it is mixed and burned with fuel in the combustion section. The hot exhaust gases provide forward thrust and turn the turbines which drive the compressor fan blades.

    The engine was produced from 1951 to 1965 with a total of 21,170 built. Many J57 models shipped since 1954 contained 7-15% of titanium, by dry weight. Commercially pure titanium was used in the inlet case and low-pressure compressor case, whereas the low-pressure rotor assembly was made up of 6Al-4V titanium alloy blades, discs and disc spacers.

    Learn to Draw was a syndicated series of 15 minute drawing lessons from Jon Gnagy. [1] It was shown from 1950 to 1955 and Gnagy "never earned a cent directly from the show". [2] It was considered a "children's show" at the time, according to Children and Television: Fifty Years of Research. [3]

    The engine was first run in August 1967 before being test flown on an Avro Canada CF-100 Canuck in an underslung external test pod. [3] In 1975 a unique over-wing installation in place of Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6 turboprops was fitted to a Beechcraft Super King Air and flown for 93 hours to investigate the use of turbofan engines on that ...

    The engine has a wide-chord swept fan, two-stage low-pressure compressor and counter rotating high-pressure compressor based on a titanium impeller, for a 2,050 lbf (9.1 kN) takeoff thrust. [5] The HF120 engine's components interact with greater efficiency by incorporating 3D aerodynamic design, and its effusion-cooled combustor design emits ...
