The McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle primarily uses Pratt & Whitney F100 series engines, specifically:

  • F100-PW-100 (early models)

  • F100-PW-220 (improved version)

  • F100-PW-229 (latest, high-performance version)

Turbine Blade Design & Materials

The high-pressure turbine (HPT) blades in the Pratt & Whitney F100 engine are designed to withstand extreme temperatures and stress, making them one of the most advanced components in the engine.

Key Features

  1. Nickel-Based Superalloys

    • Unlike titanium, which is used in compressor blades, turbine blades must handle extreme heat and are made from nickel-based superalloys like René 80, René 125, or CMSX-4.

    • These alloys provide high creep resistance, fatigue resistance, and oxidation resistance at temperatures above 1,200°C (2,192°F).

  2. Single-Crystal (SC) or Directionally Solidified (DS) Blades

    • Modern F100 turbine blades use single-crystal (SC) casting, which eliminates grain boundaries, improving strength and durability under high thermal and mechanical loads.

  3. Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBCs)

    • Applied to protect against extreme heat, typically yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), which acts as an insulator.

  4. Internal Cooling Channels

    • Air-cooled designs with tiny internal cooling holes allow cooler air from the compressor to flow through the blades, preventing overheating and thermal fatigue.

  5. Hollow-Core Construction

    • Some turbine blades have hollow interiors, reducing weight while maintaining structural integrity.

Titanium in the F100 Engine

  • Titanium is used in the fan and compressor blades (cooler sections of the engine).

  • The turbine blades themselves are made of nickel-based superalloys, not titanium, due to titanium's lower heat resistance.
