| The
Tay 611-8 powering the Gulfstream GIV, GIV-SP, G300 and G400
aircraft is renowned for its reliability. An improved
version of the engine is under development. The
new engine mark designated Tay 611-8C for the Gulfstream G450 includes
the incorporation of an electronic engine control
system (FADEC). |
|
| This latest Tay
edition is aimed at the continuation of the record
reliability set over the last 40 years by the
preceding Rolls-Royce powered Gulfstream GI (Dart
powered), GII, and GIII (Spey powered). The Tay
& Spey engines also power a range of military
aircraft. The Spey engine still operates on the
BAC One-Eleven and Fokker F28, the Dart engine
still operates on Fokker 27 in many countries. |
|
| The Tay 650 on
the latest Fokker 100 aircraft model provides
- compared to the older Tay 620 - an increased
maximum thrust for take-off, climb and cruise,
plus efficiency improvements through an increase
in fan diameter and an advanced high-pressure
turbine. The Fokker 100 serves major airlines
on regional routes all over the world. Other Tay
engine applications include the re-engined Boeing
727 (Tay 651) and the Fokker 70 (Tay 620). |
|
|
| The Tay operates
clean and quiet at levels of noise and emissions
well below those required by current and future
regulations. |

Technical
details
The Tay is a two-shaft high-bypass ratio engine.
It consists of a 44-45 inch diameter wide-chord
fan with three stages of LP compressor to the
rear, a 12-stage HP compressor; annular combustion
system, consisting of ten combustors; a two-stage
HP turbine; and three-stage LP turbine. The majority
of the bypass duct is constructed in carbon fiber
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 750 Tay-powered aircraft has accumulated
over 14 millions flight hours in service |
|
| - The average
Tay 650 engine basic despatch reliability consistently
achieves or exceeds 99.95 %. |
