Quiet engine design highlights

Three high performance fans were designed, built, and tested, accumulating 444 hours. All three fans are both aerodynamically and mechanically suitable for direct incorporation into engine applications. Two turbofan demonstrators to evaluate both low- and high-speed fan systems were also designed, built, and tested. All components and engine systems are demonstrating high reliability. These components have demonstrated advanced state-of-the-art in acoustics, aerodynamics, and mechanical design.
