HAL Corporate
HAL Nasik and HAL Koraput come under MIG Complex.
HAL Koraput division is manufacturing and overhauling unit
for various aero engines.
As per the present scenario the division manufactures only
AL31FP engine for SUKHOI- 30MKI aircraft.
It overhauls
• AL31FP for SUKHOI -30 MKI
• RD33 for MIG-29
• R29B for MIG -27M
• R25 for MIG -21BISON
5. WHAT IS AL31FP ?
AL 31 FP engine stands for
A-Name of designer- Arkhip Mikhailovich Lyulka
L-Name of company- Lyulka, now NPO Saturn
31-stands for series
F-stands for after burner (Farsa in Russian language)
P-stands for thrust vectoring nozzle (TVC) (Povorothoye
in Russian language)

9. PARTS OF AL31FP ENGINE
1. IGV
2. LP MODULE
3. INTERMEDIATE CASING
4. HP MODULE
5. COMBUSTION CHAMBER
6. HPTR MODULE
7. LPTR MODULE
8. A/B (REHEAT)
9. EXHAUST
10. COLD SECTION
• Casing attached with LPC module is the variable
IGV
• Blades of IGV are of dual support
• Purpose of the IGV is to direct the air into the 1st
stage of the compressor
• Angle changed by hydraulic actuator
• Angle of rotation is from min. of 0 to max. of 30
degree
• Changing the air mass flow
IGV
12. COMPRESSOR MODULE
A compressor is a mechanical device that increases
the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume
Axial type
Dual Casing
Parts
1. LPCR(4 stage)
2. HPCR(9 stage)
3. Intermediate Casing
4. LPCS(4 stage)
5. HPCS(9 stage)
Rotating blades-981 Stator blades-1462
13. LPCR
4 stage compressor
Disc-dram is electron beam welded structures
1st ,2nd & 3rd stages are drum type
4th stage is disc type
14. INTERMIDIATE CASING
It is load bearing element of engine
Intermediate casing, the air coming out from LPC
is divided into two stream
The following are installed in the intermediate
casing:
Rear support of LPC
Front support of HPC
CBD drive
15. HPC ROTOR
It is drum-disc construction of 9 stage compressor
1st- 6th stage Discs are electron beam welded
7th -9th stage Disc are joined to shaft with 24 tie bolts
Rotor is dynamically balanced to 25gm-cm
18. MAIN COMBUSTION CHAMBER
Internal combustion engine in which expanding gases from
the combustion chamber drive the blades of a turbine.
Annular type combustor.
main components of combustion chamber:-
Spark Plug
Flame Tube
Diffuser
Manifold
CCIC
CCOC
19. TURBINE
The high pressure and temperature gas expands thus driving
the turbine
turbine module comprises of:
HPTR Module
LPTR Module
Turbine Support
Turbine Cooling
20. It consists of 1st stage NGV, Disc and a HPT Shaft
Numbers of blade :- 90
It is connected to the HPCR shaft with the help of 24 drift
bolts
HPTR blades are mono cast and hollow cast
Investment casting to increase creep resistance
It’s blade having larger thickness
It’s blade having curvature compared to that of compressor
blades
HPT shaft transmits power to the HPCR
HPTR MODULE
21. LPTR MODULE
It consists of 2nd stage NGV, Disc and a LPT Shaft.
Numbers of blade :- 90
The LPT shaft is made of 3 piece shaft.
It is coupled with a disc by 36 radial pins.
LPTR blades are mono cast and hollow cast.
Investment casting to increase creep resistance.
It’s blade having larger thickness and dual support type.
It’s blade having curvature compared to that of compressor
blades.
LPT shaft transmits power to the LPCR.
22. A/B COMBUSTION CHAMBER (REHEAT
CHAMBER)
It’s come after the mixture.
5 fuel manifold installed .
Manifold provide fuel during the reheat process.
Increase the pressure and temperature.
Producing extra thrust.
Uses
Take-off
Climb
Combat
23. VARIABLE JET NOZZLE (TVC)
It is an axi-symmetric vectoring nozzle.

24. CONCLUSION
This internship project helped us a lot to understand about various
components of turbofan jet engines, and their assembly, manufacturing and
testing of engine.
We have got a virtual experience over the components, their purpose,
functioning and design.
