Aircraft engine

JSC Aviadvigatel is the leading Russian design bureau for the development of aircraft engines for modern aircraft Il-96, Tu-204, Tu-214, Il-76MF, etc., gas turbine installations for power generation and gas pumping. JSC Aviadvigatel is also a major supplier of gas turbine power plants.

JSC "UEC-Aviadvigatel" develops engines for civil and military aviation, as well as industrial gas turbine plants and power plants based on them. Aviadvigatel is part of the United Engine Corporation, a 100% specialized subsidiary of OPK Oboronprom OJSC for engine asset management.

Performance indicators

The company's revenue in 2015 amounted to 10.4 billion rubles, net profit - 149.8 million rubles^[1]

History

2023: Receiving a grant from RFRIT in the amount of RUB 1.174 billion.

According United Engine Corporation Rostec to the results of the competitive selection, UEC-Aviadvigatel (part of) won a grant Russian Information Technology Development Fund (RFRIT) for the implementation of a project on to import substitution software products. The amount of grant funding will amount to 1.174 billion. The rubles received funds will be domestic software used to introduce categories PLM CAD and with the possibility of designing products from polymer composite materials. The UEC announced this on April 14, 2023. Read more here. [1]

2016: Renamed "UEC-Aviadvigatel"

In December 2016, Aviadvigatel JSC changed its name to UEC-Aviadvigatel. The renaming took place at the initiative of the majority shareholder of the plant - the United Engine Corporation (UEC). UEC has been unifying the names of subsidiary assets for several years. Earlier, the serial plant of the corporation in Perm, the Perm Motor Plant, was renamed into UEC-Perm Motors, as well as UEC-Star, the manufacturer and developer of Star control equipment.

According to SPARK-Interfax, on November 24, 2016, UEC-Aviadvigatel changed its status - instead of a public joint-stock company, it became non-public, which gives it the opportunity not to disclose a number of corporate information about itself.

2008: Development of the PD-14 engine for the liner MS-21

Since 2008, state funding has been underway for the project to create a 14-ton take-off engine (it was named PD-14) for a new passenger short-haul liner MS-21 with 150-212 seats.

2000s: Development of promising engines with thrust of 9-18 tons

Since the 2000s, work has continued on the creation of a family of promising engines with a thrust of 9-18 tons, designed for short-range, medium-range aircraft and industrial gas turbine installations.

1993: Start of engine operation PS-90A

In 1993, the operation of the PS-90A engine began - the last engine created during the life of P.A. Solovyov. By 2016, the PS-90A remains the only engine in Russia for main aviation. For 20 years, its modifications have been developed, certified and mass-produced: PS-90A-76, PS-90A1, PS-90A2, PS-90A3. In 2016, the engines of the PS-90A family are operated on Russian passenger, cargo and transport aircraft. Installed PS-90A on the liners of the President and Prime Minister of the Russian Federation.

A distinctive feature of the Perm design school is the high share of developments introduced into production and massively produced by serial plants. Over 75 years, more than 70 types of engines have been developed, of which 41 types (60%) were mass-produced. At different times, engine-building plants in Perm (UEC-Perm Motors JSC) and Rybinsk (NPO Saturn OJSC) produced 66.4 thousand aircraft piston engines and more than 19.5 thousand aircraft gas turbine engines developed by the Perm Design Bureau.

1990s: Development of gas turbine equipment

In the early 1990s, due to the structural crisis of the aviation industry, UEC-Aviadvigatel used the accumulated design experience to develop gas turbine equipment for gas production enterprises and the fuel and energy complex of Russia. Over 20 years, two families of gas turbine plants for gas pumping units and power plants from 2.5 to 6 and from 10 to 25 MW have been developed and mastered in serial production (UEC-Perm Motors JSC). By order of the largest gas and energy companies - Gazprom, LUKOIL, Bashkirenergo, Surgutneftegaz and others - more than 900 industrial engines are manufactured and successfully operating.

1950: The Creation of the Legendary Aircraft Engines

In the early 1950s, the team of the enterprise, which was headed by successor Pavel Aleksandrovich Shvetsova Solovyov, began to create a new gas turbine equipment.

Each aircraft engine of this period can be characterized by the words "first" and "best." The Perm school made a generally recognized contribution to the theory and practice of world engine building. Classic design models included in textbooks on the design of aircraft engines were developed in Perm:

• piston "long-lived motor" ASh-62IR (developed in 1938 and now flies on An-2 aircraft),

• the first two-circuit engine D-20P (Tu-124);

Engine D-20P, Vnukovo-2, July 1963

• the first helicopter engine with a free turbine D-25V (Mi-6, Mi-10, Mi-10K);)

Military transport helicopters Mi-6 and Mi-10 with engines D-25V

• first electronic engine control system, high-pressure compressor, high-temperature turbines,

• engines were installed on the most reliable Tu-134 (D-30) aircraft in the history of the aircraft industry, the most popular - Tu-154M (D-30KU-154).

1939: Formation of the Design Bureau

The design bureau was formed by the Decree of the Central Committee of the CPSU (b) and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR on December 11, 1939 and has its own school for design, refinement and design support of products in serial production and operation. The founders of the Perm design school are Arkady Dmitrievich Shvetsov and Pavel Aleksandrovich Solovyov.

Under the leadership of Arkady Dmitrievich Shvetsov, a well-known Soviet aircraft engine designer, the creator of the first domestic aircraft engine M-11, from 1939 to 1953, the company created a family of powerful star-shaped piston air-cooled engines M-63, ASh-82, ASh-82FN, ASh-73TK, ASh-82T, ASh-82V that were installed on the planes of Polikarpov, Tupolev, Lavochkin, Sukhoy, Ilyushin, Antonov, the helicopters of Mile, Yakovlev and played an important role in the victory over fascism in the post-war period.
