| First
certificated in 1996 the BR710 powers the Gulfstream GV, GV-SP,
G500 and G550, Bombardier's Global Express and
as of 2004 the Global 5000 large cabin business
jet aircraft. |
|
| The BR710 has
enabled these aircraft to set many world records
in the fields of range, speed and altitude. It
also offers low noise and excellent emission characteristics,
ensuring unrestricted access to local airports
around the world. Service experience is proving
the BR710 to be a very reliable performer, while
its Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC) levels are
the lowest in its thrust class enabling outstanding
aircraft range. |
|
|
Due to their excellent performance, BR710 powered
business jets are able to cruise above commercial
airspace, thus enabling passengers and crew to
fly from point to point around the globe thus
saving time and fuel. Their excellent climb performance
allows these aircraft to reach cruise level much
faster than commercial airliners, again saving
fuel and reducing time to climb. The engines'
take-off performance allows BR710 powered aircraft
to depart from virtually every domestic airport
or major hub alike. |
|
|
| Another application
of the BR710 is the BAE SYSTEMS Nimrod MRA4 maritime
reconnaissance aircraft for which 88 engines have
been ordered. These engines feature enhanced corrosion
protection for extended patrol missions over water.
Other military applications of the BR710 include
the C-37A (the U.S. military designation for the
Gulfstream GV, G500) and the Raytheon ASTOR. |

Environment
The BR710 is the cleanest and greenest engine
in its class. It meets current and future environmental
regulations for emissions and noise. The low certificated
noise levels for the BR710 contribute to making
the Gulfstream GV, G500 and Global Express the quietest
aircraft available today. Due to its low emissions
burner and the excellent fuel burn characteristics,
the BR710 produces less volume of pollutants into
the atmosphere than any competing engine. |

Technical
details
The BR710 is a two-shaft high-bypass ratio engine.
The basic engine architecture consists of a 48
inch diameter wide-chord fan, a 10-stage HP compressor;
a combustion system consisting of an annular combustor
with 20 fuel burners; a two-stage HP turbine;
and two-stage LP turbine. |
|
| The structural
bypass duct is constructed in carbon fibre composite
material. Cold bypass air and hot exhaust are
combined in a forced mixer that gives good propulsive
efficiency and low noise generation. |
|
| - Today's fleet
of over 340 BR710-powered aircraft has accumulated
over 1,000,000 engine flight hours
in service |
|
| - The BR710 engine
basic despatch reliability consistently surpasses
99.97 % |
