The GE aero-derivative engine
makes its debut when proven
aircraft engine designs are
adapted for use in two
experimental hydrofoils. A wide
variety of applications in marine,
industrial, electric utility and
other fields soon follow. The
following are the pioneering
derivatives and their uses.

1965
The U.S. Air Force awarded
General Electric a contract to
develop an engine for their new
super sized air transport, the
Lockheed C-5 Galaxy. This
engine, designated the TF39,
proved so successful that a
commercial version called the
CF6-6 was developed almost
immediately.

The first engines were delivered
to industrial systems suppliers
Dresser-Rand and Cooper

Spools span the distance between
disks, or are suspended from disks.
A spool will contain more than 1
stage of blades and allows for

Blades are airfoils retained by axial
dovetail grooves in stages 1 and 2,
and by circumferential dovetail
grooves-in stages 3 through 16.

Cowl Assembly
The cowl assembly in conjunction
with the compressor rear frame,
serves as a diffuser and distributor
of compressor discharge air. The
cowl furnishes air to the combustion
chamber, providing for uniform
combustion and even-temperature
distribution at the high pressure
turbine.
Dome
The dome provides flame
stabilization and mixing of fuel and
air. The interior surface of the dome
is protected from the high
temperatures of combustion by a
cooling air film.

Combustion Section/Triple
Annular Combustor
z The LM2500+ DLE GT utilizes a
lean premix combustion system
designed for operation on natural
gas fuel.
z The combustor is of a triple
annular design consisting of five
major components: cowl
(diffuser) assembly, dome inner
liner, outer liner, and baffle.
z The triple annular configuration
enables the combustor to operate
in a uniformly mixed lean fuel to
air
