Rolls Royce RS.360 Turboshaft Engine manual Date March 1969 Size A4 98 pages Excellent manual with 10 A3 pullout diagrams Lots of A4 diagrams Most diagrams are in colour For index see photo's Very rare and very sought after Introduction from the manual This manual provides an introduction to the rs 360 turboshaft and highlights its technical and economic features. The engine is the result of intensive and detailed studies by Rolls Royce small engine division in the field of gas turbines required to power the next generation of medium helicopters. In order to produce a light compact and reliable high performance engine with good handling characteristics that meet military and commercial requirements, full advantage has been taken of the extensive gas turbine experience in all divisions of Rolls Royce ltd. Overriding requirements in the design and development of the rs 360 are safety reliability and maintainability. To meet the overall safety requirement the fully automatic engine control system which governs the helicopter rotor speed has been provided with secondary circuits on all main function parameters. Seperate and independant safety devices are incorporated to prevent overspeeding of the lp and hp spools and the free power turbine. A two spool gas generator without blow off or sophisticated variable geometry and a modular concept are respectively major factors in meeting the reliability and maintainability requirements. The engine systems are designed to be self contained with accessories easily removable using the minimum tools. The only services required from the airframe are fuel and electrical supplies. Provision is made for condition monitoring of components and systems on a planned basis to give early warning of potential failure and to allow repairs to be effected economically and with the minimum disruption of aircraft operation.
