There is no such thing as thrust specific fuel consumption of a turboshaft engine, as a turboshaft is designed to deliver mechanical power, not thrust. This mechanical power can be converted into electric power by a generator or converted into thrust by a propeller or rotor. Basically, a turboshaft uses jet technology but is an alternative to a piston engine.
While thrust specific fuel consumption doesn't exist for a turboshaft, "brake specific fuel consumption" does. It measures the rate of flow of fuel required for a certain amount of power. For example, a specific fuel consumption of 0.2 lbs/h/hp means that for every horsepower the turboshaft produces, it burns 0.2 lbs of fuel each hour.

Where thrust bearing located in steam turbine?
The thrust pads will be there at the front or non drive end of the turbine side....These are usually used to limit the axial displacement of the rotor( Means to minimize the movement of rotor axially in order to maintain the axial clearance between the moving blades and the fixed blades of steam turbine rotor).....
How is oil distributed to all moving parts within the MAN B and W engine?
MAN 9L58/64 Engine. The oil distributed in the engine by pumping the oil from a sump tank since the engine is dry sump. The oil is pumped to the main bearings and through the crankshaft which is hollow to the big end bearing and goes to through the con rod and then lubricate gudgeon pin and piston crown. The other oil goes to the cam shaft bearings and then another branch goes to the rocker arm area and lubricates the exhaust and air inlet valves rota caps and then flows down through the push rods to the cam shaft area. The cylinder liner is lubricated by cylinder lubricator pump which delivers oil in the cylinder liner. Air intake valve seat is lubricated by valve seat lubricator pump which delivers lube oil to all inlet valve seat. The idle gears, cam shaft gears and the generator end bearing are also lubricated by lube oil pumped by Lube oil main pump. The turbo charger has a header tank to ensure that oil lubricates the turbo charger bearings and also there is a direct line from lube oil main pump.
What are the names of the jet turbo engines?
The term jet engine is loosely referring to an internal combustion airbreathing jet engine. A turbo, or turbocharger is a device, usually fitted to a car or truck, to increase an engine's efficiency by forcing more air into the combustion chamber. I can see how you might have confused the two, as they are both primarily based on a turbine-driven design.
What does the term 'turbonetics' mean?
The term "Turbonetics" refers to a company that deals in the sale of turbo powered engines. One could visit their official website for information regarding the products sold there.
What is rig saver in oil and gas wells?
Rigsaver is a swing-gate, spring-operated air shut-off device mounted in the air intake system. It will impede the airflow into the cylinders and positively stop the engine. It can be installed pre- or post-turbo. Rigsaver can be manually or automatically controlled to respond to a variety of fault or hazard conditions.
How does a turbo prop work?
The turbo prop core is very much like a turbojet engine. The difference is that rather then expanding all the hot exhaust gases through a nozzle to produce thrust these gasses are used to turn a turbine. this turbine is connected to a drive shaft which is in turn connected to a gear box. A shaft coming from the gear box is finally connected to a propeller which produces most of the thrust. The exhaust velocity of a turboprop is does little to aid thrust as most of the energy of the core exhaust has gone into turning the drive shaft. The turbo shaft engine is a variation of the turbo prop. In this system the gear box is some other drive device. Turbo shaft engines are used in many helicopters, as well as tanks and boats.
How can you tell if you have a faulty turbo?
Abnormal Noise, blue smoke, excessive oil consumption and shaft movement, damage to the compressor wheel, not producting boost anymore.
What the different between a short shaft and a long shaft on turbo 350?
About 6 inches
How do you get the tail shaft out of 350 turbo trans. how do you get it out?
c4
Will the tail shaft interchange from a turbo 350 to a 400 turbo?
No it will NOT interchange. The 350 and 400 turbo are actually VERY different transmissions.
Can you put a 700r4 transmission tail shaft out put shaft and housing on a turbo 350?
no it will not fit at all
Why is your 92 900 turbo have a pulsing idle?
distributor shaft

What drives the shaft on a turbo charger?
Exhaust gasses drive the shaft as it passes the wheel on the way out of the exhaust system
