Turboshaft engine. What is it and how it works

Today we will take a look at the turboshaft engine what is it, how it works and where you can find it.
Basically in all kinds of machines.
A turboshaft engine is a form of gas turbine that is optimized to produce shaft horsepower rather than jet thrust. In concept, turboshaft engines are very similar to turbojets, with additional turbine expansion to extract heat energy from the exhaust and convert it into output shaft power. They are even more similar to turboprops, with only minor differences, and a single engine is often sold in both forms.
Turboshaft engines are commonly used in applications that require a sustained high power output, high reliability, small size, and lightweight. These include helicopters, auxiliary power units, boats and ships, tanks, hovercraft, and stationary equipment.
The General Electric T58 is an American turboshaft engine developed for helicopter use. First run in 1955, it remained in production until 1984, by which time some 6,300 units had been built. On July 1, 1959, it became the first turbine engine to gain FAA certification for civil helicopter use.

You have one of the most informative aviation channels. I found you through Stig. I'm just an average person that likes aviation, not a mechanic. I find this type of content very interesting and educational.

Thank you, this kind of comment keeps me working 🙂 thank you ☺️

I finished my education in the oldest military air school in Bulgaria ( in the city of Dolna Mitropolia) . There were many old soviet engines , also cut for training purposes.
Thank you for this good presentation!

Jop I get from a similar school. And that's why I decided to make this video 🙂

[@riccardoromiti5632]

Very compliments Zeto, great explanation

[@zeto.r]

Thank you🙂

It's interesting that they can get almost all of the potential energy out with just the single turbine wheel. I expected there to be maybe 2 or 3 stages to make it more efficient.

[@zeto.r]

It again depends on the requirements, in helicopters with higher demand you can have on engine 2 turbines

[@Robvdh87]

@@zeto.r Ah, good to know. Thanks for that!

[@zeto.r]

My pleasure ☺️

Zeto, I have signed in a EASA B1.1 &B1.2 program I have just passed M1 and doing M2 next week and M3 after next week, so do you have any advice for the part66 exams ? How to practice how to be fully prepared ? I would appreciate your help really))

[@zeto.r]

No idea, I pass before each module class training

[@marwanmohd9396]

@ you mean you finished it all one by one or?

[@zeto.r]

Yes most of them at school

[@BeautifulRelaxingMusic-N1]

HI! Please, more videos about A-320 hangar works

[@zeto.r]

I'm not allowed anymore

[@BeautifulRelaxingMusic-N1]

@zeto.r unfortunately

[@zeto.r]

I will see how I will continue

[@Aviation_Underground]

​@@zeto.rdose it mean there will be not more films?

[@zeto.r]

You put comment under new video so I guess there is your answer

Can a mechanical engineer become qualified to repair airplane engines, and if so, how?
