Delta TechOps

SUMMARY

Yanos Aerospace worked with Delta TechOps to implement a new state-of-the-art control and data acquisition system in their new 14.7m test cell, which was designed to test the Rolls Royce Trent series engines as well the mature engine fleets and future engines that have yet to be developed.

​

The Trent XWB is regarded as the most efficient aero engine to date and is used on the Airbus A350 XWB. We were proud to work with Delta TechOps to incorporate our technology and help bring to market this marvel of modern engineering! 

The World's Largest
Engine Test Cell

New state-of-the-art test cell

​

  • The first test cell built by a U.S. airline in more than 20 years. When built, it was the largest aero engine test cell in the world with an inlet measuring 14.7m across.
     

  • Capable of safely running a mounted, stationary engine at full power with 150,000 pounds of thrust, this test cell will allow Delta to test future engines that have yet to be designed.
     

  • The airline's new test cell and engine shop open the door to next generation engine capabilities, including the Rolls-Royce Trent 1000, Trent 7000 and Trent XWB as well as PW1100 and PW1500 variants of Pratt & Whitney's geared Turbofan engines.

The yCOM Auto-Throttle System

The future in test cell automation and control!

​

  • The yCOM system is used for Facility and Engine Control.
     

  • Designed with Operators in mind, the yCOM system provides the highest level of automation and safety.
     

  • Capable of running through all required test procedures in semi-automatic, fully-automatic, or manual modes of operation.

High Speed Data
Acquisition System

Modular, Reliable, and Fast!
 

  • This High Speed DAS is capable of logging data at over 100 samples per second from every probe, PLC, and device in the facility.
     

  • This LabView based system uses CompactRIOs, which provide high-performance processing capabilities and sensor-specific conditioned I/O.
     

  • Designed with modularity and expandability in mind.
