新一代设计turbojets

A British engine manufacturer has chosen ALTEN to support it in the simultaneous commissioning of several new civilian-aircraft engines. ALTEN s쳮ded in putting together a team of 90 high-level engineers in the United Kingdom in record time.

In order toreduce its time to marketand reinforce its presence on the long-haul aircraft market, our engine manufacturer client requires the rapid ramping up of its engineering capacity.

In the space ofeight months, ALTEN deployed several aeronautics engineering service centres in various strategic environments:

  • Systems Engineering
  • Structure calculations
  • Thermodynamic/Aerothermal studies
  • Embedded systems (Electronics and Software)

The ALTEN engineers intervene in theoptimisationandcertificationof the entire engine, thedynamic scalingof parts in different scenarios (e.g.: Fan Blade Off, bird strike, etc.), themodification of the fuel/lubricant system,integration of FADEC(Full Authority Digital Engine Control), and theimprovement of engine protection systems(against corrosion, attack by chemicals and weather conditions, etc.).

Thus, our customer released three new engines in2018, one after the other, in order to equip three different long-haul aircraft. By2025, architecture changes combined with the introduction of new technologies will allow areduction in fuel consumptionof up to25%compared to the current average for the fleet.

After this first phase, ALTEN was selected as one of the client’s strategic engineering suppliers for the next five years.
