Which jet engine do you think is the largest in the world? If your answer is General Electric GE9x then you're wrong but at least it's close. Actually, this nickname should belong to the Rolls-Royce Ultrafan. Despite the fact that this engine is still in the demonstration phase, Rolls-Royce has already tested it at maximum power.
This Airbus A350's “MASSIVE NEW ENGINE” Will Change The Aviation Industry FOREVER! Here's Why
It can be said that it is the future of the aviation industry. So why has its prospects turned the airline industry around? How big is the Ultrafan engine and how does it actually work? Let's dive in!
Global warming, rising sea levels, drought, ecosystem changes,... it can be said that people are becoming more and more aware of climate change. This Airbus A350's “MASSIVE NEW ENGINE” Will Change The Aviation Industry FOREVER! Here's Why. As one of the driving forces behind higher carbon emissions, the aviation industry is increasingly focusing on producing more efficient and environmentally friendly engines for aircraft. World aviation is showing an important shift towards a greener sky thanks to sustainable aviation fuel initiatives (or SAF for short). This Airbus A350's “MASSIVE NEW ENGINE” Will Change The Aviation Industry FOREVER! Here's Why
They are aggressively exploring renewable energy sources, which can come from materials such as used cooking oil, agricultural waste, urban waste, and some types of algae. Unlike conventional jet fuels that are derived from finite fossil fuels, SAF is a renewable and low-carbon alternative that significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions. One of the aspects that makes this fuel source attractive is its immediate compatibility with existing aircraft and aviation infrastructure. SAF can be blended with conventional jet fuel and is compatible with existing aircraft engines without the need for any modifications or additional equipment. This means airlines can immediately put SAF into operation without affecting flight safety or performance. SAF's environmental benefits are significant, so the race to develop green engines that can power next-generation aircraft has been going on for a while.

The engine war attracts engine manufacturers and some finished products are actually making their mark in the market. These include the pure power PW 1100G engine from Pratt and Whitney, which reduces fuel consumption by up to 16% and noise emissions by a significant 75%. CFM International's narrow-body Leap 1A engine has delivered a breakthrough in performance and proven environmental friendliness since 2016 and is used to power the Airbus A 3 20 Neo. And it's impossible not to mention that GE Aerospace has developed the amazing GE9X, said to be the most powerful jet engine today. It retained that title until the Rolls Royce Ultrafan was implemented.
This Airbus A350's “MASSIVE NEW ENGINE” Will Change The Aviation Industry FOREVER! Here's Why.
However back in 2014, the last engine produced by Rolls-Royce was the Trent XWB 97. Despite being the most powerful engine currently in use by Rolls-Royce, its development had already begun Before the aviation industry began to truly introduce sustainability standards from aircraft, the XWB engine project eventually caused huge losses for Rolls-Royce after the Covid 19 pandemic. In addition, Rolls-Royce only focuses on producing engines for wide-body aircraft, but currently, the demand for narrow-body aircraft travel is much greater. That's why Rolls-Royce is actively looking to change the game by developing its new Ultrafan engine.
With its huge variable pitch fan, this engine really blurs the line between a turbofan and a turboprop.
The U.K. continues to punch above its weight with the Rolls-Royce units. Impressive! This video is an advertorial for Rolls-Royce, of course.
Gagging on green. A geared fan engine that will run on bacon grease. The world is saved.
Poor pigs though!
The Ultra Fan looks to be a ducted turbo prop.
Geard fans have been around for a long time it's nothing new. And not really a prop.
Hate these AI narrated videos.
We will try to improve it soon
The engine should be able to handle non-stop Heathrow-Sydney flights with the potential to allow for non-stop Heathrow-Auckland and Heathrow-Christchurch flights.
As long as we can find an infinite supply of cooking oil. LOL
I wouldn’t go near one of those flights. The question is why would I?
GE's GE9X produces 134,300 lbs thrust. How much thrust does the Ultrafan produce?
'This Airbus A350's “MASSIVE NEW ENGINE” Will Change The Aviation Industry FOREVER!' - because the geared fan engines fail permanently and have to be checked with a lot of amount. The next generation of engines will get a larger diameter than the fuselage.
Actually the passengers will be sitting all around the circumference of the engine , A flying engine instead of a fuselage 😅 Just upscale the similar fighter jets LOL
GE9X hasn`t been released yet & RR`s UltraFan is far from being considered by Boeing or AB. The most efficient turbine built thus far is RR Trent XWB -84 & -97 these two engines power the A350-900 & -1000 respectively & will do so for some years to come. XWB has been proven to be very reliable & has helped the company to become more profitable since the pandemic & the debarcle that was Trent 1000 issues that did RR so much harm is now a thing of the past with those issues sorted. GE9X will have to prove itself when B777X is launched but that could be some time off yet but it could well surpass XWB efficiency. UltraFan could well push the boundaries further but until either Boeing or AB want this engine for a particular aircraft RR will be reluctant IMHO to invest funds.
thanks for leaving your comment
Since 2014, its a test bed engine. No longer intended for production in its current form and is not available to airframe manufacturers, although it could be scaled down for narrowbodies. According to RR press releases a year ago, technology learnt from the UltraFan is being transferred to current engines, ie the Trent series, so expect some announcement for upgrades to those XWBs at a suitably propitious time, like when the B777X finally gets certified, when just maybe Airbus then announce improvements in performance to the A350 at the same time...........
That's freakin' fantastic. We can all fly around loads more now 🤣
I'm wondering how RR thinks the Ultrafan engine will be adaptable to narrow body aircraft when its diameter is so large? It will be interesting to see how they do it... IF they can!
Will these now appear on the new Globemaster or the the A380 Neo ?
But it's not a given he ultra fan will power future A350 variants!!
How do you keep cooking oil from freeing on 35000 ft at Negative 200C° modern Aviation fuel has additives to antifreeze and cope with any kind of situation to continues supply of steady flow. Cooking oil need to be well developed to do that in the future.
How will we fry our food if a hand full jets burn all our cooking oil? LoL
Your ignorance is laughable. Saf ain't cooking oil for a start. And -200°c way to pull a random number out your ass. -56°c if the lowest temperature aircraft encounters. And if you really wish to know, go ask British airways, airline that's been using it for 3 years now.
Why are you sure it is forever the industry will change??????
He knows much,
Lower flame temperature due to a lean mixture? Not in my world.
It depends who is talking if he favors airbus or boeing
Anyway it will be a suck machine for poor birds !!
Help me understand. This engine is the diameter of a 737? How will it fit on the wing??
the wing is bigger??
Well maybe because it's not made for a737 in the first place. Just like the GE90 or Trent 1000 it's meant for large jets 🤦🏻
the engines on the 737 don’t matter. You need a parachute when flying Boeing these days. Never know if you might get sucked out of a door or have some electronic system crash the plane! I now check the planes a route/airline is using and select a flight with Airbus over Boeing wherever possible.
So the RR engine can use SAF as fuel,,while the GE9x can't,,,,
Yeah that's not how it works. Most modern jet engines can use SAF it's the entire point of saf. This is just far more efficient because of the larger bypass and gears fan.
Some wealthy countries (like the US) are developing the methods and infrastructure to mainly supply their militaries with an alternative fuel source, and the airlines are piggy backing on that. "Green" jet fuel is not economically viable at the moment, it's too expensive and hard to produce for widespread use. "Green" jet fuel also has to be produced and refined to be an exact replacement for current gas turbine/jet engines. The engine makers are not going to modify their engines to fit your alternative fuel, sorry, doesn't work that way. So it's not a selling point, it is a requirement.
If you calculate the amount of land required to produce biofuel to power just one A350 you will find that it is huge. Fuel synthesis using green electricity may be better but then you have to consider the number of big wind turbines necessary to supply one A350. It is a lot.
Any jet engine can use sustainable aviation fuel like GE engines that attached to 777-9.so it's not be brannded to airbos.
Pure Speculation! Where are the facts?
why can't we have a human voice?
thanks for feedback, we'll improve soon
BLUE fan blades !! That's groundbreaking stuff
You lost me at Global warming 😢
What Global Warming or Sea Level Rise?
It is physics and unfortunately real
I think Airbus is causing too much stress for Boeing?
That AI commentary is SO annoying
Green engines. BS. It’s all sleight of hand.
Computer narration is getting better, but this one still sucks.
Sounds like an "infomercial". Lots of claims and meaningless stats, but no hard comparisons or analysis.
Yes, there are far too many of these. If it's got an overblown title, it's probably clickbait.
Sounds like a great machine. How much more will an airline ticket cost me for such altruism? Those engines will not make a speck of difference on the planet's climate, sorry to tell you. One volcano eruption will dump more dangerous gas into the atmosphere than all the weekly flights combined.
An advertisement read by someone who knows little about what he is reading.
This was produced by AI or a BOT.
thanks but we only use AI to read the script
@@FLIGAVIA And that’s exactly why it “sounds” fake, and distracts from the underlying message. On face value, what you’re saying may or may not be true or accurate, but when voiced over with AI makes it all the more suspicious and lacking credibility.
Airbus is not manufacturing engine,if linked it needs re certification ,
the wrong engine at the wrong time and at the wrong price point
Oh, 'green energy' Yawn...
Boring Story. So much more to tell. Bypass is as old as it can be.
Just misinformation.
thanks for the feedback, we will try to improve further
@@FLIGAVIA thanks! I have a question, are you a bot or a real person? If you are a real person, you should get a profile picture.
Lose the automated voice, and forget the green initiative. That’s been disproven so many times, it’s laughable. Stay focused on the technology.
Another A.I. video; feels sterile, awkward. The script is generic, narration stilted...these A.I. videos are an utter waste of time.
0:35 , and I'm off. No need for climate fiction!
What the hell is 140 itches? Don’t speak gibberish.
