Never worry about your videos being to long its impossible your content is in my eyes perfect for the circumstances with you being on the clock keep up your Fantastic content sir 👍
Can you please explain why the LEAPs on thr MAX need so long to start while the NEOs don't. I understand about the bowed shafts and thermal expansion I just don't understand why one has the problem and the other doesn't. Great video!!! Loved the test run at the end!!!
Good question! and you kind of answered it yourself, the shaft bowing is the reason, the LEAP 1B has a bit of different configuration when it comes to the Compressor staging. Both engine do take a while ( especially on the first start of the day)
Wow, I didn’t realize how incredible that is so many many parts of a jet engine that explains why jet engines are very extremely extremely complicated system, especially all the parts it’s incredibly amazing machine
@@StigAviation Спасибо, Стиг🤝! Я - Ваш подписчик, поэтому слежу за Вами и за вашей работой, которую Вы снимаете для своего канала и соответственно за работой - которую Вы делаете, при обслуживании самого прекрасного, что смогли сделать ум и руки человека: самолётов 👍!

Until I found u, I had a preference for Boeing aircraft,, but now I find ,, because of your knowledge and expertise I prefer Airbus,, seems as if they put many more options onto their products,, like those brake cooling fans!! Thanks Sir!! Love your content!!❤️
It’s definitely a different architecture when it comes to Airbus, a lot more mechanics friendly and user-friendly. But I enjoy working on both manufacturers.
Great video! Does the LEAP 1A have a lubrication unit like the CFM56-7B on the B737-800? Would love a video like this on the CFM56-7B as I am making a diagram of my own on cad.
Jet engine ... as a complete system always fascinate me. Its amazing how the mechanical, electronics/electrical, pneumatic hydraulic, fuel, oils, sensors etc2 work together to make it functions. Thanks for your very enthusiastic introduction video 🙂 #largeFANsmallCORE #AVGeek
Very well done video. Fascinating engine. Question: Can the fan on an engine at standstill be prevented from rotating if the fan was held in place by hand?
Not sure to understand the question, but if it does not turn, yes you can hold it by hand when the wind starts to blow. But when rotating, don’t even think about it. The mass of the rotor is important and you may end up with missing fingers or broken fist if you do so. By the way, these fan blades have a titanium leading edge but no titanium trailing edge. No need. They are so strong it’s amazing. Overall it’s a good video but there are some on the CFM website that show all that too. And from the horse mouth 😊
@@ChapaLipar I was wondering if I could prevent an engine that is OFF from spooling up if I hold the front fan still. Before it starts rotating, keep it from rotating. I was told yes, but I think that if there's a geared starter involved, that might not be true. Holding the fan will not stop the starter from rotating and as the starter starts so will the fan, regardless of whether you tried to hold it still or not.
@@jeffnew1213 ok. I got it. You can hold it with your hands. One hand is enough 😊 The starter is connected to the HP rotor, not to the Fan. And except during the starting sequence it is deconnected from the gearbox. Like in your car. But if you push the start button you will engage the starter and start to rotate the HP rotor, and the air sucked in will escape the HP compressor, then the HP turbine , then will flow to the LP turbine which is attached to the Fan. So as the HP rotor speed will increase, the torque applied to the Fan will increase too. Knowing that the engine starter on such engine is equivalent to around 150 Horsepower, you won’t be able to old it very long although there is no mechanical contact between the HP rotor and the Fan 😊
@@ChapaLipar Interesting. So one would only have a short time until the LP turbine and fan become too difficult to hold still. Got it. So the best one can do is delay rotation of the fan for a few seconds at best.
@@StigAviation Dont feel bad for me, Im not paying! With all the issues my job is safe 😅 But ya, the pw issues is not fun, we had to park few planes out of c check to give engines to the line
what are the issues if not confidential ? the only issue I know of with the 220 is they do not depart in moderate turbulence although that may not be engine related.
Ahhhhh so the ppc is connected to the rgb and has a sister component tcb that’s on top of the rotc bda that gives fuel to the jpm while giving the fdt power. Makes sense now. Jk absolutely love all of your videos. They’ve answered a ton of curious questions I’ve always wondered about. Please keep up these great videos and spewing knowledge. 99% of RUclips videos are brain eating junk. Your the 1% that actually contributes to society.
Yes indeed they do. Blade expansion is a normal thing within Certain limits... if Blade begin to expand too much that's called Blade Creeping ... at that point it will start to cause damage to the abradable liner...blade would need to be replaced.
Could you show where the pressurized air exits after driving the starter? Is it vented into the bypass stream, or is there any exhaust similar to the one for the engine anti-ice?
Thanks for another informative video. Nice to see the highly praised CMF Lp1. I have a kinda stupid question. When a pilot decides to dump fuel. Is it via the wings or the engine have a release valve?😅😅😅😅
Good question! It depends on the aircraft, some aircraft dont have the capability do Jettison fuel ( A321 cant) But for example the 777 can dump fuel , it will be selected from the flight deck on how much to dump and the fuel will drain from the wing tips jettison tubes.
I prefer this over the PW GTF engines. I read the report on their ground-testing engine failures. I prefer no planetary gears on my turbo-fan-jet engine.

Can anyone explain the difference between the CFM leap and the CFM56? I know the leap has the composite blades, does it also use a FMU instead of a HMU like on the CFM56? Cant find a clear answer online
Well the leap 1A/1B is a very different design. It has advanced technology much like the GEnx. FMU and HMU work much the same in concept but how it does its job is different. Different compressor staging and well as advanced materials in leap engines.
@@StigAviation that's amazing, thank you so much! Dont suppose you know where I could find any more information on the inner workings of the FMU? Keep up the great vids!

@@StigAviation when i was young mechanic in the 90' we made the parce power on JT8 of the MD83 with open cowls and turning the rigging srew under the engine at idle. When i began in AirFrance it was not allowed for safety reason and specialy in CDG airport under EASA rules. I know you re true because we alway use to get a big ground fire extinguicher with us but for insurance policy it's a mistake under your responsability if a fire occure during runup cowl openned... Europe is strait with rules. Because there is a lot of money behind a plane. As you said about the prise of the leap.
@@gev340 ahhh the good old days of trimming the engine at idle when standing under it … I do miss those days. JT8D holds a special place in my heart. Probably the last good engine PW made in form of design for a low bypass system.
@@StigAviation yes, I didn’t understand: 1. Where’s the APU. 2. How does the pressurized air start the engine 3. How exactly are the gearboxes connected 4. That valve is a regulator of what? …
I think you were confused on engine and APU, APU is an engine. It’s just an extra engine in the back to provide air and electrical power, it’s got nothing to do with the main engines.

Very well done video. Fascinating engine. Question: Can the fan on an engine at standstill be prevented from rotating if the fan was held in place by hand?
in theory Yes it can, because it gathers momentum to spin up, but i have never done that

I mean any troubleshooting you face at work you can record it and then we can learn how you resolve it.
@@ashrafshadid5870 I simply follow my troubleshooting manuals. It’s all written step by step.
Hello brother! Just want to ask if the fan blades expands, i've been seeing signs of scratches on the acoustic panels on neos
Yes indeed they do. Blade expansion is a normal thing within Certain limits... if Blade begin to expand too much that's called Blade Creeping ... at that point it will start to cause damage to the abradable liner...blade would need to be replaced.
The best of France and America married to produce best engine. Safran+GE
+CFM 👌. I agree. A very good combination
Because their business model is based on the sharing of the revenues, but not sharing the costs. Its a classic example shown in some business schools
Could you show where the pressurized air exits after driving the starter? Is it vented into the bypass stream, or is there any exhaust similar to the one for the engine anti-ice?
You mean from the starter ? Just gets dumped into the cowling and goes overboard
Is it Safran's responsibility for the Low pressure system, and GE for the high pressure components ?
its a combination of efforts
Thanks for another informative video. Nice to see the highly praised CMF Lp1.
