PROSPECTS PROSPECTS Products, processes and projects for a successful future. 2018 was yet another record-breaking year for MTU. To maintain its course of profitable growth, MTU is working on new products, processes and projects that hold excellent promise for continued success in the future. 1 1 PRODUCTS PRODUCTS Ideally positioned for the future ____ MTU is well-placed in all thrust and power categories, in both its commercial engine business and the military sector. By way of example, on the following pages MTU presents three engines from its wide-ranging portfolio that serve as guarantors for the company’s long-term success. 2 PRODUCTS PRODUCTS Guarantors of MTU’s success PW1000G Major leap forward in jet engine technology with unparalleled commercial success: the Geared Turbofan™ engines of the PW1000G family are poised to occupy a dominant position on the market for short- and medium-haul aircraft. ___ page 4 GE9X Impressive performance during testing: the GE9X engine for the Boeing 777X will define the future on long-haul routes. And MTU is on board with its GE9X program share. __________________________________________ page 8 T408 Launched on the market in 2018 and fit for the future: the T408 engine for Sikorsky’s CH-53K heavy-lift cargo helicopter. The engine has enormous potential for further applications. ___________________________________ page 10 Portfolio Guarantors of success at every stage of their lifecycle: MTU provides service support for engines in all thrust and power classes from development and manufacturing through to maintenance. ________________________ page 12 2 3 PRODUCTS The PW1000G family: a bestseller at the start of a long lifecycle Economical, low in emissions and quiet – these are the criteria for the next generation of aircraft engines. The Geared Turbofan™ (GTF) engines designed and built by Pratt & Whitney and MTU, and already in operation, are leading the way. Unparalleled commercial success: firm orders and options for almost 10,000 units placed by the end of 2018. Right from the outset, the GTF has proved to segment – namely short- and medium-haul air- be the top-selling aircraft engine of all time. craft. This is borne out not only by the number With its program share in the PW1000G family, of orders on hand, but also by the fact that as MTU has been part of this success story from many as four aircraft manufacturers are placing the get-go. The GTF is poised to occupy a their trust in the Geared Turbofan™. dominant position in civil aviation’s key market Geared Turbofan™ in service – on the Airbus A320neo 4 PRODUCTS Excellent prospects: 20,000 GTF engines across the entire lifecycle The GTF outpaces its predecessor – the V2500 – by far, with more than twice as many deliveries expected across the entire lifecycle. PW1000G V2500 PRODUCTS Entry into service (EIS) EIS + 10 years EIS + 20 years EIS + 28 years 1989 1999 2009 2017 2016 2026 2036 2044 Four aircraft manufacturers are placing their trust in the GTF – and MTU is always on board.

Low-pressure turbine MTU produces the high-speed low-pressure turbine, a key component of the GTF. Germany’s leading engine manufac- turer is the only company worldwide to have mastered this technology, for which it won two German innovation awards. Efficiency that pays What sets the GTF propulsion system apart is The advantages: that it features a reduction gearbox between • lower fan pressure ratios and the fan and low-pressure shaft on which the therefore higher bypass ratios low-pressure compressor and low-pressure • all components achieve their optimum turbine that drives the fan are seated. speeds The gearbox allows the fan with its large dia- • very high overall efficiency meter to rotate more slowly, and at the same • fewer compressor and turbine stages time the low-pressure compressor and turbine make for lighter engines and lower to rotate much faster. maintenance costs Benefit to customers: significantly reduced operating costs The GTF is a major leap forward in jet engine million liters of kerosene on more than 550,000 technology from which customers can benefit to flights since entering service. This represents a a high degree: compared with its predecessor, reduction in operating costs for the airlines in the V2500, the GTF engine has saved over 250 excess of 100 million U.S.

  • Robust Gas Turbine and Airframe System Design in Light of Uncertain
    Robust Gas Turbine and Airframe System Design in Light of Uncertain Fuel and CO2 Prices Stephan Langmaak1, James Scanlan2, and András Sóbester3 University of Southampton, Southampton, SO16 7QF, United Kingdom This paper presents a study that numerically investigated which cruise speed the next generation of short-haul aircraft with 150 seats should y at and whether a con- ventional two- or three-shaft turbofan, a geared turbofan, a turboprop, or an open rotor should be employed in order to make the aircraft's direct operating cost robust to uncertain fuel and carbon (CO2) prices in the Year 2030, taking the aircraft pro- ductivity, the passenger value of time, and the modal shift into account. To answer this question, an optimization loop was set up in MATLAB consisting of nine modules covering gas turbine and airframe design and performance, ight and aircraft eet sim- ulation, operating cost, and optimization. If the passenger value of time is included, the most robust aircraft design is powered by geared turbofan engines and cruises at Mach 0.80. If the value of time is ignored, however, then a turboprop aircraft ying at Mach 0.70 is the optimum solution. This demonstrates that the most fuel-ecient option, the open rotor, is not automatically the most cost-ecient solution because of the relatively high engine and airframe costs. 1 Research Engineer, Computational Engineering and Design 2 Professor of Aerospace Design, Computational Engineering and Design, AIAA member 3 Associate Professor in Aircraft Engineering, Computational Engineering and Design, AIAA member 1 I. Introduction A. Background IT takes around 5 years to develop a gas turbine engine, which then usually remains in pro- duction for more than two decades [1, 2].
