SST. PHASE 2-A. DATA SUBMISSION. VOLUME 1 E. SUMMARY

Abstract

The objective of the Phase II-A program was to arrive at an airplane- engine combination which could meet the overall performance and economic requirements of the SST. Pratt and Whitney Aircraft's efforts in Phase II-A were concentrated in two areas: (1) design and performance studies conducted in close cooperation with Boeing and Lockheed to determine the optimum powerplant cycle and design. (2) a comprehensive component test and analysis program aimed at verification of component design and performance. These efforts have resulted in a new turbofan design incorporating more advanced state of the are components and having a development objective of considerably higher turbine inlet temperatures than our Phase I powerplants.
