Jet and Turbine emissions

Jet and Turbine emissions

Jet and Turbine emissions

(OP)
I have found refferences on the net about how the EPA and State agencys had stopped worrying about emissions from Jet aircraft because for the 5 year period no headway in reducing them was insight.
I would like to see some figures on what types and what the quantities are of the various gases and particulates are from the more popular passenger and military aircraft jet and turbine engines.
Also would be interested in the same figures from recip engines from the older aircraft such as DC-7, Stratocruiser etc.  Thank you ahead of time.

RE: Jet and Turbine emissions

These guys don't design aircraft, but their data is probably good.

For those of you who want a guilt trip, you can use that data to work out how many tonnes of CO2 your personal energy usage comes up to every year.sadeyes

GE can provide tables with the estimated average engine performance data at various loads for a specified fuel and engine model. The tables include AR, N2, O2, CO2, H2O, SO2, NOX, CO, HC ,etc.
