ENGINE GENERAL CONCEPT

The CFM56-5B engine is a high by-pass, dual rotor, axial
flow turbofan. It is supported by the wing pylon and
streamlined by cowlings.
Air is sucked into the intake by the fan blades and split
into two flow paths, the Primary and the Secondary.
The primary airflow passes through the inner portion of
the fan blades and is directed into a booster (LPC).
The airflow then enters a High Pressure Compressor
(HPC) and goes to a combustor. Mixed with fuel and
ignited, the gas flow provides energy to a High Pressure
Turbine (HPT) and a Low Pressure Turbine (LPT).
The secondary airflow passes through the outer portion
of the fan blades, the Outlet Guide Vanes (OGVs) and
exits through the nacelle discharge duct, producing
approximately 80 % of the total thrust. It also plays a role
in the thrust reverser system.

The CFM56-5B engine uses a maintenance concept
called On Condition Maintenance. This means that the
engine has no periodic overhaul schedules and can
remain installed under the wing until something important
occurs, or when lifetime limits of parts are reached.
For this reason, to monitor and maintain the health of the
engine, different tools are available, which are :
- Engine performance trend monitoring
- Borescope inspection
- Lubrication particles analysis
- Spectrometric Oil Analysis Program (S.O.A.P)
- Engine vibration monitoring system

TRAINING MANUAL

The CFM56-5B engine consists of two independent
rotating systems :
- The low pressure system rotational speed is
designated N1.
- The high pressure system rotational speed is
designated N2.
The engine rotors are supported by 5 bearings, identified
in manuals as numbers 1 thru 5, where No. 1 is the most
forward and No. 5 the most aft. These bearings are
housed in 2 dry sump cavities provided by the fan and
turbine frames.
Engine structural rigidity is obtained with short lengths
between two main structures (frames).
The accessory drive system uses energy from the high
pressure compressor rotor to drive the engine and
aircraft accessories. It also plays a major role in starting.

The CFM56-5B is a modular concept design engine. It
has 17 different modules that are enclosed within three
major modules and an accessory drive module.
The 4 modules are :
- The Fan Major Module
- The Core Engine Major Module
- The Low Pressure Turbine Major Module
- The Accessory Drive Module

FAN SECTION
The fan section is at the front of the engine and,
downstream from the air inlet cowl, the section includes
the fan and booster module and fan frame module.
The purposes of the fan and booster are :
- to accelerate air overboard to generate thrust.
- to increase the pressure of the air directed to the
High Pressure Compressor (HPC).
After entering the air inlet cowl, the total engine airflow
passes through the fan rotor, which increases the airs
kinetic energy.
Most of the airflow is ducted overboard producing
approximately 80 % of the total thrust. The remainder is
directed through the booster, where it is pressurized
before entering the HPC.

The Fan and Booster module consists of :
- a spinner front cone
- a spinner rear cone
- a single stage fan rotor
- a four stage axial booster
The spinner front cone is designed to minimize ice buildup and is attached to the spinner rear cone.
The spinner rear cone holds the blades axially in position
of the fan disk.
The fan disk supports the mid-span shrouded fan blades
and a booster spool.
The booster spool accommodates booster blade stages,
numbers 2 thru 5.
The booster vane assembly stages, numbers 1 thru 5,
are stacked and mounted on the fan frame.

Spinner front cone
Interference fit and single angular mounting positions are
characteristics of the installation of the front and rear
cone onto the fan disk.
The spinner front cone has an offset hole on its rear
flange, identified by an indent mark, to ensure correct
alignment for installation onto the rear cone front flange.
The rear flange has 6 mounting screw locations and 3
threaded inserts, located every 120, for installation of
jackscrews used in removal procedures.

Spinner rear cone (continued)
The rear cone prevents axial disengagement of spacers
used in the fan blade retention system.
It also supports a series of balancing screws that are
installed on its outer diameter. There are two sets of
balancing screws available and the screws in each set
are identified as either P01 to P07 or, P08 to P14. The
numbers, which are engraved on the screw heads, are
equivalent to various weights.
An indent mark is located in between two balancing
screws for correct installation of the rear cone onto the
fan disk and for identification of fan blade No.1.

The fan frame has 12 radial hollow struts that house

various equipment and lines. Compartments formed
between the adjacent struts house Variable Bleed Valve
(VBV) actuators which, under certain conditions, redirect
primary air into the secondary airflow.
The inner surface of the downstream fan inlet case is

The core engine is a high pressure, high speed, gas
generator that produces the power to drive the engine.
The core engine consists of the :
- The High Pressure Compressor (HPC) section.
- The Combustion section.
- The High Pressure Turbine (HPT) section & the Low
Pressure Turbine (LPT) stage 1 nozzle.
Fan discharge air is compressed in the HPC section and
heated and expanded in the combustion section. It is
then directed to the HPT section. Energy not extracted
from the gas stream by the HPT is used to drive the LPT,
fan rotors and booster.
The forward end of the core is supported by the No 3 ball
and roller bearings and the aft end by the No 4 roller
bearing.

THE HIGH PRESSURE COMPRESSOR (HPC)

The High Pressure Compressor (HPC) is mounted
between the fan frame module and the combustion case.
The HPC, which has 9 stages, increases the pressure of
the air as it passes from stage to stage, to supply the
combustor section.
It consists of the following modules :
- The compressor rotor
- The compressor stator
The compressor stator is made up of two parts. The front
is supported by the fan frame and the rear is attached to
the combustion case.
The HPC has pipe connections that duct bleed air for
both engine and aircraft use.
