CFM56+TURBOFAN+ENGINE

=CFM56= The CFM56 engine family includes five different models covering the thrust range from 18,500 to 34,000 lb. CFM56 engines equip Airbus A320 twinjets, the first generation of A340-200/-300 long-haul transports and both the standard and next-generation Boeing 737s. With a backlog of nearly 14,000 orders from about 300 different customers, the CFM56 is the hottest selling engine in the commercial transport market. The engine is produced in a cooperative 50-50 venture of General Electric and France's Snecma Moteurs. With the CFM56 MTU is focusing on the repair of some of the CFM56's variants.

[|CFM56-5 Turbofan Jet Engine]
I saw this cool looking poster of a turbofan engine schematic and it inspired me to make a 3D rendering of it. This engine is used for the Airbus. The streamlines shown here are just for visual effect. In reality, the streamlines would be turbulent. The blue streamlines show where cold air enters and bypasses the engine (turbofans typically have a high bypass ratio). Green streamlines are shown through the compressor stages. The red streamlines show where hot gas exits the burners and turbine stage. //CFM56-5 Turbofan Jet Engine – drawn in AutoCAD 2000 by MAC, [|AutoLisp], rendered in POV-Ray 3.6.1, 3/2/07//
