Abstract
Some of the characteristics of both the visible and invisible exhaust emissions from aircraft gas turbines are discussed. Data are presented for some currently used commercial engines, and possible means for reducing levels of some of the pollutants are indicated. Gas turbine emission characteristics are compared with those of automotive reciprocating engines.
