ES3001 RB211-24C to 24G upgrade


Provides increased power and heat rate, or extended life

Engineered solution purpose


This upgrade provides the option of
increased power and improved heat
rate or increased life when operating
at -24C ratings

Applicability
All RB211 -24C engines

Technical description
The upgrade replaces the High
Pressure [HP] turbine assembly.The
components replaced are the HP
blades, HP turbine disc and HP Nozzle
Guide Vanes [NGVs].The turbine
utilises Directionally Solidified [DS]
blades with improved cooling.
The upgraded materials allow higher
