High-Bypass Twin-Spool Turbofan

Real-Time Aero Engine Airflow, Coaxial Spool Telemetry & Cutaway Lab

01 / What Was Built

Studio-grade, mechanically coupled 3D twin-spool high-bypass commercial aviation turbofan digital twin (2.36 m fan nacelle diameter × 4.55 m axial length) built in Blender 5.2 LTS and Three.js r170 WebGL2. Articulate 5 split engine casings, inspect counter-rotating coaxial N1/N2 shafts and bevel-driven accessory gearbox kinematics, solo 22+ aerospace assemblies in 360°, and sweep FADEC Brayton-cycle station telemetry.

02 / Creation Pipeline & Workflow

Built with Gemini Argon via deterministic headless Blender 5.2 Python turbomachinery modeling (18 3D-twisted fan blades, 36 cambered OGVs, 3-stage LPC, 7-stage HPC with VSV linkages, perforated Inconel annular combustor with 18 swirl nozzles, 2-stage HPT, 4-stage LPT, 16-lobe mixer, and under-core spur-gear AGB) paired with a Three.js WebGL2 studio PBR cutaway & FADEC gas-path thermodynamics lab.

03 / Scene, Simulation & Optical Highlights

  1. 01Coupled coaxial twin-spool kinematics: inner LP shaft (N1: spiral spinner, 18 swept fan blades, 3-stage LPC, 4-stage LPT) sleeved inside counter-rotating HP drum (N2 at -3.2× ω_N1: 7-stage HPC, 2-stage HPT, plus bevel-driven radial tower shaft & AGB spur gears)
  2. 025 independent articulated cutaway sections (clamshell ±68° Fan cowls; radial-rail Compressor, Combustor, Turbine & chevron Exhaust casings), axial explode slider, and Mechanical Linkage color-coding
  3. 0322+ clickable assemblies in the Component Engineering Inspector with one-click 360° Solo Isolation, FADEC throttle presets (Idle / Cruise / Takeoff TOGA), dual bypass/core streamlines, and Web Audio turbine synthesis

04 / Element-by-Element Build Breakdown

Asset foundry provenance — CAD, Blender Cycles PBR, 3D-Gen, TSL/GLSL & procedural audio

Fan, 3-Stage LPC & 7-Stage HPC Compressors
Blender 5.2 Parametric Airfoil & Blisk Geometry

Spiral-striped spinner cone, 18 wide-chord 3D-twisted titanium/carbon fan blades on a dovetail hub, 36 cambered OGVs, Variable Stator Vanes with unison rings & bellcranks, and ±68° split clamshell cowls.

Annular Combustor, Coaxial Shafts & Accessory Gearbox
Blender 5.2 Mechanical Assembly + Custom Flame Shader

Perforated Inconel flame liners with dilution ports, 18 braided-manifold swirl fuel nozzles, glowing combustion toroid, 5 bearing sumps, concentric N1/N2 shafts, bevel tower shaft, and exposed AGB spur gear train.

2-Stage HPT, 4-Stage LPT &FADEC Telemetry Lab
Three.js r170 WebGL2 Studio PBR + Brayton Solver

Shrouded HPT & expanding LPT rotors, 16-lobe scalloped exhaust mixer, acoustic chevron cowls, live station RPM/OPR/TIT telemetry, dual-stream gas streamlines, and 22-part 360° Solo View.
