The Pratt & Whitney Canada PW800 is a series of turbofan engines in the 10,000–20,000 lbf (44–89 kN) thrust class, manufactured by Pratt & Whitney Canada.Intended for the regional jet and business jet market, the gear-less PW800 shares a common core with the larger, geared PW1000G.
SCOR was developed in 1996 [3] [4] by the management consulting firm PRTM, now part of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), and AMR Research, now part of Gartner, and endorsed by the Supply Chain Council, now part of ASCM, as the cross-industry de facto standard strategy, performance management, and process improvement diagnostic tool for supply ...
Performance engineering has become a separate discipline at a number of large corporations, with tasking separate but parallel to systems engineering. It is pervasive, involving people from multiple organizational units; but predominantly within the information technology organization.
The PW530 has a single stage fan, driven by a 2-stage LP turbine, supercharging a 2A/1CF axial-centrifugal HP compressor, driven by a single stage HP turbine. Although similar in configuration, the PW535 has a booster stage, mounted on the LP shaft behind the fan, to increase overall pressure ratio and core flow.
The PW 300 series has been developed in partnership with MTU who are responsible for the low pressure turbine. The first variant, the PW305A, has the following configuration and was designed with a core flexible enough for engines with take-off thrusts from 20 kN to 31 kN (4,500 to 7,000 lb): a single-stage fan driven by a three-stage low pressure turbine, supercharging a four-stage axial ...
Pratt & Whitney Canada (PWC or P&WC) is a Canada-based aircraft engine manufacturer. PWC's headquarters are in Longueuil , Quebec , just outside Montreal . It is a division of the larger US-based Pratt & Whitney (P&W), itself a business unit of RTX Corporation . [ 2 ]
The Pratt & Whitney Canada PW100 aircraft engine family is a series of 1,800 to 5,000 shaft horsepower (1,300 to 3,700 kW) turboprops manufactured by Pratt & Whitney Canada.
In 1956, Pratt & Whitney Canada's (PWC) president, Ronald Riley, ordered engineering manager Dick Guthrie to hire a team of gas turbine specialists to design a small gas turbine engine. Demand for the Wasp radial engine was still strong and its production was profitable but the aim was to become Canada's prime engine company by focusing on a ...
