Boeing 777 Engine Horsepower

The electric power system chosen for the Boeing 777 is an example of the advances seen in response to market demands for superior performance and reliability. The main electric system includes two engine-driven integrated drive generators, a generator driven by the auxiliary power unit, three generator control units, and a bus power control unit. A backup electric system independent of the main system provides the redundancy of electrical sources equivalent to a three-engine airplane, considering the auxiliary power unit inoperative. Both systems are automated to minimize crew workload.

It carries between 305 and 550 passengers and has a range spanning from 5,600 to 8,870 nautical miles (10,400 to 16,400 km). Its first flight was in 1994. The new Boeing 777X will be the world’s largest and most efficient twin-engine jet, unmatched in every aspect of performance. With new breakthroughs in aerodynamics and engines, the 777X will deliver 10 percent lower fuel use and emissions. The engine therefore must have been rotating and producing at least some thrust on impact. Look now at the second image of the other engine and you will see that the turbine blades are all intact even though the nacelle has hit the ground quite hard and scooped in a lot of dirt in the process.

The highly automated features of the 777 aircraft are enhanced by the equally sophisticated control units of the electrical power system. The state-of-the-art, microprocessor-based control units use a high-level software language to provide control and protection for the system, along with an elaborate built-in-test (BIT) capability.

Each control unit has two-way communication through a newly developed ARINC 629 communication bus. In addition to providing monitoring and built-in test information to the central aircraft information management system (AIMS) computer, an automatic checklist in each unit reports the real-time status of all main ac electrical power system control switches across the ARINC 629 communication bus for display in the flight deck.
