Rolls-Royce/SNECMA Olympus 593 Mark 610 turbojets. With afterburner, each of four engines produces 38,050 pounds of thrust on takeoff. Take-off thrust is limited for only a few minutes and after-burner is very limited. For normal operation, the thrust is 10,000 lbs. Powerplant Specifications Engine Model Olympus 593 Mrk610 turbojet Engine Manufacturer Rolls-Royce/SNECMA Number fitted Four Maximum thrust produced at take off, per engine 38,050 lbs (170 KN) (with afterburner reheat in operation) Maximum thrust produced during supersonic cruse, per engine 10,000 lbs Reheat contribution to performance 20% at full thrust during take-off This link has some great info and figures on the Concorde engines and a comparison ofwith the turbo-fan engines(watch for pop-up windows). http://www.concorde-jet.com/e_moteurs.htm The Concorde jet engine is a standard turbotjet with after-burner, much like the fighter jets. Most airliners utilize the turbo-fan engines. This engine has a jet engine as the main core and one of its turbines powers a large multi-bladed fan that blows air over the outside of the engine. This is why it is called a high-bypass turbo-fan. This design uses fuel more efficiently to save costs for the passengers. As a comparison to the Concorde engine, General Electric has designed theCF6-80E1A3 for use on the Boeing 777 thatproduces a thrust of72,000 lbs at takeoff.

What else can I help you with?
How can Concorde brake the sound barrier?
Concorde was able to break the sound barrier by using powerful engines and a sleek design that minimized aerodynamic drag. By generating sufficient thrust and overcoming drag, Concorde was able to reach speeds beyond the speed of sound, allowing it to break the sound barrier.
Can an airplane fly with one wing and a propeller?
No, an airplane requires both wings to provide lift and stability. Additionally, the propeller is powered by the engine, which would likely be on the missing wing. Without both wings and the engine, the airplane would not be able to maintain controlled flight.
What is the source of the force of thrust for an airplane?
The source of thrust for an airplane is the propulsion system, typically a jet engine or a propeller. The engine generates thrust by expelling a high-speed jet of gas or creating airflow over the propeller blades, which propels the airplane forward through Newton's third law of motion.
How does a single engine airplane get its thrust?
To keep a complex story easy: The engine consists of multiple stages eventually leading to a mixture of fuel and air being led to a combustion chamber (the piston, hence the name piston engine). In this chamber the mixture is ignited by a spark plug and drives a crankshaft. The airplane's propeller is mounted directly onto the crankshaft, so they turn at the same RPM (Revolutions Per Minute). The propeller blades are twisted to move air from the front to the rear, pulling the airplane forward.
What part of airplane creates thrust?
The engine of an airplane creates thrust by accelerating air and expelling it at high speed through a nozzle at the back of the engine, according to Newton's third law of motion. This action propels the aircraft forward.
What city has the same name as a car and an airplane?
Concorde, New Hampshire, U.S.A. Chrysler Concorde Concorde Supersonic Airliner.
What is the name of the passenger airplane that flies faster than the sound of speed?
The passenger airplane that flies faster than the speed of sound is called the Concorde.
Is a 99'Concorde 3.2L an interference engine?
Yes the 3.2 for that model of Concorde is an interference engine.
Will a 1995 Concorde 3.5 engine be used to replace a 3.2 engine in a 1998 Concorde?
No, will not work. why not?
Will an engine from a 1994 Chrysler Concorde fit and work on a 2000 Concorde?
No, thet are different versions of that engine.
How did the Concorde get its name?
As the development of the airplane was to be done jointly, the "Concorde" name came about due to an international treaty between the British and French.
Will a 3.2L Concorde engine fit a 2002 2.7L Concorde?
yes
When was the Concorde airplane retired?
On 10th April 2003, Air France and British Airways announced that they would be retiring Concorde later that year due to low passenger numbers and a slump in air travel. The Concorde airplane was retired on 26th November 2003.
What is the length of the Concorde airplane?
It is 202 ft 4 in (61.66 m) long.
Where are Points for lifted 3.5 l engine on 2003 Concorde?
Where are Points for lifted 3.5 l engine on 3003 concorde?
When was the last flight of the Concorde?
The last flight of the Concorde was on October 24, 2003. The airplane was too expensive to continue flying.
1993 Concorde interference engine?
no it is not
