    Discussion on circumferential non-uniform temperature distribution and deformation in aero-engines

    to realize how sensitive this information is i just point you to the fact that only one of listed by me companies is using ACC (active clearace control) system in their engines and this company is finding this system as a factor giving them significant edge over competition

    Discussion on circumferential non-uniform temperature distribution and deformation in aero-engines

    what you are asking for is strictly controlled, properietary information, part of specific DPs, directly related to engine performance - you will have no access to this untill you will be a member of inner circle of trust at GE, PW, RR or Safran.... not just emplyee, but you have to work for a...

    is it means basic rule to avoid project crash to not develop engine and airframe simultaniously is gone in this case? anyway we are talking about dozens of billions of USD for relatively small size compan - yes that sounds realistic...

    Engine Shock Loading

    I'm assuming that from mechanical standpoint, definition is/will be pretty the same. For electric motors major difference are requirements for insulation resistance - and this is really tricky part for HV electric propulsion in aviation (HV in aviation term for typical electrician is in fact MV...

    Engine Shock Loading

    "A normal shock load is defined as having a 10 g acceleration in a given direction over a period of typically 11 ms. This assures the LRU will survive takeoff, landing, aerodynamic gusts, or any other normal aircraft maneuver."

    Avionic- GPS NAV solution

    i don't think so - garmin's specification is not mentioning anything similar to your requirements. Also what comes to my mind is fact that linking remote GPS sensor to the GTN will give you very limited level of system redundancy. For remote option, like mentioned by you Genesys or GPS 3000...

    Good wording to state fabrication based on model geometry.

    "FOR MENUFACTURING REFER TO CAD DATA" SIMPLIEST "MANUFACTURE PER CATIA MODEL" GD&T SYMBOLS AND NUMBERS CAN BE ADDED IN 3D MODEL - AT LEAST IN PRIME TYPE SOFTWARE LIKE CATIA AND SIEMENS NX OF COURSE IF YOU CAN AFFORD ON RESULTANT PRICE TAG :D AS MENTIONED BEFORE...
