Turbine-Powered RV-10
Turbine Solutions Group's concept demonstrator is a full 10 inches longer than an IO-540 piston-powered RV-10. The stretch was necessary to keep the airplane in CG with the lightweight TP 100 turboprop engine out front. Pierpont held the airspeed at 103 knots in the climb, producing 1700 fpm of up, up, up!

Heron Turbine
10. Simplicity is an obvious hallmark of the 82-lb Heron GVA-130 turbine. The two shown at Air Venture were said to be complete, running engines and a third has been flying on a Bristol in England. Now we can add Greece to the countries joining the modern kit plane era, for that is where Heron is starting production of a decidedly compact 130 ...
TurbAero's Small Turbine Update
0. TurbAero, an Australian company with footprints in the U.S. and Canada, is continuing work on its small regenerative turbine for light experimental aircraft. At Sun 'n Fun, we talked to TurbAero's Berni Breen and learned that the company is cutting metal and on the verge of assembling a running prototype.

PBS TJ100. is a 4th-GENERATION turbojet engine. The PBS TJ100 is especially suitable for manned and unmanned vehicles (UAVs). These engines are also ideal for gliders and light sports and experimental airplanes. The PBS TJ100 engine is of a compact design and has an excellent power-to-weight ratio of up to 292 lbf (1,300 N) with low fuel ...
Turbotech's mission: make the small aircraft turboprop a reality
Price: 65,000 Euro (net) The TG-R55 the turbine drives an generator delivering 53kW electric continuous power at generator output (400 to 900V DC or to customers specs). Engine starting is by the generator running in starter mode. The TG-R55 weighs 55/65kg dry/total and has an electric efficiency of 26 percent.
TurbAero Aims For A New Turboprop Engine For Small Airplanes
Updated Apr 6, 2022 11:14 PM EDT. Share this story. At Sun 'n Fun 2022, an Australian company called TurbAero was showing off a mock-up of a new, light turboprop engine it proposes to fit into airplanes requiring about 200 HP. Turboprops aren't known for fuel efficiency, of course, but the company is using recuperative heating to deliver fuel ...
A 200-hp Turboprop For Homebuilts
On their website, TurbAero touts a fuel flow of 12.6 GPH while making 150 hp at 10,000 feet -- an altitude where a 200 hp, normally-aspirated engine would struggle to put out 100 hp. And with an installed weight that's about 20-40 pounds lighter than Lycoming's IO-360, you'd enjoy some weight reduction, but hopefully won't need to draw out a ...
The four stages of developing an aircraft turbine engine
This should help to give a high-level explanation of the complexities involved in a program such as ours, and why it takes time to provide our customers with a safe, reliable, and efficient turboprop engine. The 4 main stages in a turbine engine development program are: Planning. Design and Analysis. Prototyping and Testing.

Small Turbine Engines for Experimental Aircraft
The new model aircraft with the turbine engine is Rolls Royce RR-500. It is one of the engines that can be exclusively installed in experimental aircraft builders in their designs. The piece's characteristics are that it can power a four-place aircraft, including the improved global fuel availability. Walter M601.
Republic XF-84H Thunderscreech
The Republic XF-84H "Thunderscreech" was an American experimental turboprop aircraft derived from the F-84F Thunderstreak.Powered by a turbine engine that was mated to a supersonic propeller, the XF-84H had the potential of setting the unofficial air speed record for propeller-driven aircraft, but was unable to overcome aerodynamic deficiencies and engine reliability problems, resulting in the ...
TurbAero Announces New Turbine Engine
Like a PT-6, the free turbine design TurbAero TA200TP breathes in from the rear of the engine and exhausts via the small chrome stacks around its middle. It's projected numbers are 200 hp at takeoff, 180 hp at 10,000 ft, a fuel flow of 12.6 gph at 150 hp and a weight of 270 lb. For sure the sexiest block of wood at AirVenture is the TurbAero ...

General Electric GE36
General Electric F404. The General Electric GE36 was an experimental aircraft engine, a hybrid between a turbofan and a turboprop, known as an unducted fan (UDF) or propfan. The GE36 was developed by General Electric Aircraft Engines, [3] with its CFM International equal partner Snecma taking a 35 percent share of development. [4]
Turboprop
A turboprop is a turbine engine that drives an aircraft propeller. [1] A turboprop consists of an intake, reduction gearbox, compressor, combustor, turbine, and a propelling nozzle. [2] Air enters the intake and is compressed by the compressor. Fuel is then added to the compressed air in the combustor, where the fuel-air mixture then combusts.
