“…However, the excellent results in reducing fuel consumption spurred additional studies in the 1980s and 1990s (Refs. 21,31,32), which showed the clear potential of using a turbocompound diesel (TCD) or compound cycle (CCE) engine that converts diesel exhaust energy to power for improved fuel consumption. Table 9 summarizes the salient features of a CCE engine.…”

The intention of this paper is to link helicopter and propulsion history, summarize anticipated new turboshaft engine requirements for helicopters, and outline emerging opportunities for the future. The paper touches on some important contextual challenges facing both government and industry, specifically: specific fuel consumption and the "real cost" of fuel, the quest for speed, tip-jet propulsion, new engine concepts, as well as future design and integration challenges.
