Aircraft Gas Turbine Engine Turbine Disk And Hub

Aircraft Gas Turbine Engine Turbine Disk and Hub are components of gas turbine engines used in aircraft.

The turbine disk is a rotating component that is connected to the shaft of the engine. It is typically made of a high-strength material, such as titanium, and contains multiple blades or vanes. The hot gases produced by the combustion process in the engine pass through the turbine blades, causing the turbine disk to rotate.

The hub is the central part of the turbine disk that connects it to the shaft. It provides support and stability to the blades and helps to transmit the rotational energy from the turbine disk to the shaft.

These components are critical for the operation of gas turbine engines in aircraft, as they play a key role in converting the energy from the combustion process into mechanical power to drive the engine and propel the aircraft forward.

In the supply class Gas Turbines And Jet Engines, Aircraft, Prime Moving; And Components, these turbine disks and hubs are categorized as part of the supply group Engines, Turbines, And Components.
