Concorde Engine Blade Materials

The Low Pressure (LP) and the first few stages of the High Pressure (HP) compressor rotors and stators and the inlet spokes are made form titanium. This material combines lightness with the strength needed to handle foreign objects such as ice, birds, etc. We've seen many of these blade after such strikes and the damage containment is remarkable.

To deal with the high delivery temperatures in supersonic cruise, nickle-based alloys are used for the blades of the final four HP compressor rotors and stators. These alloys are also used for HP and LP turbine rotor and stator blades.

Other Concorde Engine Materials

Waspalloy is a high nickel content alloy with excellent tensile strength and creep properties. It is used for the final four HP compressor discs, the combustion chamber inner and outer casings, both turbine discs, and the exhaust outer annulus casing. The casings for the compressor are made from a one-piece steel construction.
