CURRENT AND FUTURE USAGE OF MATERIALS IN AIRCRAFT GAS TURBINE ENGINES

The memorandum discusses the applications of heat-resistant metallic materials in aircraft gas turbine engines. Brief background information on the engines of each of the manufacturers is followed by a detailed discussion of the materials used in various components of the engines. Some current trends in turbine-engine materials applications are pointed out. An extensive appendix arranged according to manufacturer, lists materials used in recent and current engines and presents some brief data on size, weight and application of each of the engines.
