Allison PD 370-41 derivative turboprop engine. Final report, October 1978-February 1979
This study developed data on Detroit Diesel Allison (DDA) common core derivative engines for use in Maritime Patrol Aircraft (MPA) concept formulation studies. The study included the screening of potential DDA turboprop/turboshaft engines and the preparations of technical and planning information on three of the most promising engine candidates plus an all new engine. Screening of DDA derivative candidates was performed utilizing an analytical MPA model using synthesized mission profiles to rank the candidates in terms of fuel consumption, weight, cost and complexity. The three turboprop engines selected for further study were as follows: a derivative of the unity size T701-AD-700 shaft power engine with rematched turbine (PD 370-37), and an advanced T701 turboprop derivative with 25:1 overall pressure ratio and a scaled ATEGG demonstrated compressor (PD 370-40), an advanced T701 turboprop derivative with 17.7:1 overall pressure ratio and a scaled ATEGG demonstrated compressor.
