Trent 1000

Engineered to power the future

Capitalising on the architecture and technologies of previous generations of Trent engine, the Trent 1000 has been designed and optimised to power the Boeing 787 Dreamliner family of aircraft.

The Trent 1000 powered Boeing 787 Dreamliner is up to 25% more efficient than the Boeing 767 aircraft it replaces. Three shaft architecture better supports “all electric” aircraft with a bleed-less engine system. The result? A more stable operating cycle.

Building on this proven baseline we are now transforming our customers experience of operating the new Trent 1000 with the introduction of a Durability Enhancement package that more than doubles the engine time on wing. We are not stopping there; further hot section enhancements will deliver up to a further 30% time on wing improvement

Technology

IP power offtake – efficiently drives the aircraft electrical systems while improving engine handling and operability at low power. The all-electric architecture of the Boeing 787 aircraft requires that no bleed air is taken from the engine, but up to 500kW of power is extracted from each engine to drive the aircraft systems.
10:1 bypass ratio is the highest bypass ratio of any Trent, a key feature providing fuel efficiency and reduced noise. Over 85% of the engine’s thrust is generated by the 2.8m diameter fan.
Low hub:tip ratio maximises airflow at a given fan diameter and improves FOD protection to deliver superior performance retention.
A heated ESS (Engine Section Stator) system delivers advanced ice protection, reducing operational burden in cold or high-moisture environments.
Adaptive HP cooling system lowers fuel burn and delivers better engine performance retention.
New improved HP turbine with advanced cooling systems to enable more thrust and efficiency and now even more durability

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the typical lead time for gas turbine overhaul services?

The lead time for gas turbine overhaul services ranges from 6 to 14 weeks, depending on the damage assessment, parts availability, and whether hot-section repairs are required. Expedited options may reduce this by 30%.
Do you provide customizations for legacy turbine control systems?

Yes, we retrofit legacy systems (e.g., GE Frame 5, Siemens V94.2) with modern digital controllers, typically completing hardware integration within 4-8 weeks. Software migration requires additional validation time.
How often should industrial gas turbines undergo performance testing?

We recommend annual performance testing under ISO 3977-2 standards. Critical applications (e.g., offshore platforms) may require semi-annual tests with emissions compliance checks.
Are your radiation-hardened (rad-hard) semiconductors compliant with MIL-PRF-38535?

All rad-hard devices (e.g., FPGA, ADC) are QML Class V certified under MIL-PRF-38535 and tested to MIL-STD-883 Method 1019 for SEU tolerance. Full qualification reports are available upon request.
What temperature ranges do your military-grade ICs support?

Our ASICs and power management ICs operate across -55°C to +175°C ambient temperatures, with derating curves provided in military temperature range (MTR) datasheets.
Are PMA parts interchangeable with OEM components?

Our PMA parts (e.g., actuators, sensors) hold FAA/EASA Form 1 certification and match OEM form/fit/function. Installation requires SB/MB documentation per FAA AC 23.1529.
What traceability standards do you follow for aircraft fasteners?

All NAS/MS fasteners include full DNA traceability: melt source (AMS 2301), heat/lot numbers, and AS9100-compliant MTRs with ultrasonic test reports.
How do you handle urgent AOG (Aircraft on Ground) requests?

AOG orders ship within 4 hours for stocked items (FAA-PMA, EASA Part 21G). Non-stock critical parts trigger priority manufacturing with 72-hour max turnaround.
