Look guys, I'm trying to understand how the fuck mechanics and hydraulics work. I get the basics but I cant be sure of myself about how a turbshaft engine's torque is made or distributed. I think layers of compression fans draw air into the compression chamber where is fed into the combustion chamber where fuel is expended to heat the compressed air coming in. That heated compressed air is now run through more compression/turbine fans that have a shaft attached to them and create the actual movement to a shaft that gets dets distrubted throughout an aircrafts mechanical system to power rotors and generators.
But what powers the initial compression fans that draw air in? Is it just the apu spinning them with electromagnetic gearboxes? Or is it just a pneumatic start using cross bled air pressure from an aux power unit? Im sure either works but how does it work for the T700-GE-401C engine? ( h60 front driven turbo shaft engine). How is the direction of torque on a shaft changed? Some kind of gear box translation?
Man, I hate mechanical shit, but I want to know it for my job. An avation electrical tech on heilos for the us navy just trying to understand the rest of the aircraft better.
Alsi fuck electromagnetic gearboxes, I don't know what the fuck a stator is.

Also mkg wouldnt help me.

Look this is technology, not fagology.

Maybe you should stop fucking frogs. This board attracts edgy extra bedroom dwelling rudypoos, nothing more.

I was going to give you an answer but then I read heilos.

Rodge. Whats carrier life like unless im wrong.

It sucks for six months.
This is a good place to ruin egos im in. Dont know shit.

Atleast is a good bar story, thats where the other half of the pay goes towards.
Look man you sound p smart to me, u probs have a better understanding than any an would have off the bat.
OP fuck me pls
Good tech board, keep sharin those dank desktop wallpapers. *Claps*

Yeah you win queer, heres a lemon.

Dude i dont disagree with you.
Alright well im off, op her, gonna suck my own cock.
So, you have the first part right. Air flows into a compressor and is compressed, from there it is passed through the combustors where the air is vastly heated by the burning fuel. This simultaneously raises the pressure. Then this high pressure and hot air expands through the turbine stages, and this is where the mechanical energy is drawn from. The shaft that the turbine is mounted onto, to simplify things, is the same shaft as the compressor, so the mechanical energy from the turbine is transferred directly into the compressor.
Hope this helps.
