	Rolls-Royce Olympus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A marine version of the Olympus was trialled in the refitted Royal Navy frigate HMS Exmouth which became the first major warship in a western navy to be powered by gas turbine engines.
		The Olympus was subsequently used for the Type 21 frigates and the sole Type 82 destroyer, HMS Bristol (TM1A).
		Bristol Siddeley of the UK and Snecma Moteurs of France were to share the project.

		Bristol Aero engines developed the Olympus BE.10 as a high power (10000lb) two spool turbojet for the RAF V-bombers to meet spec TE.1/46.
		The Olympus 22R formed the basis of the powerplant for the forthcoming SST, with further modifications raising dry thrust to 29300lb and reheated thrust to 39940lb.
		The Olympus was proposed for a variety of applications, from supersonic fighters and hypersonic research aircraft (as a combination powerplant with ramjet) to the other end of the scale, powering warships.

	Bristol Aero Collection
		Bristol started building aero engines on the Filton site around 1920, but the line can be traced back to the Brazil-Staker motorcar manufacturer, who built Rolls-Royce engines under licence during World War I. The company was taken over by Cosmos Engineering, who built the Mercury and the Jupiter radial engines.
		The Bristol Hercules has 14 cylinders in two rows, and is a sleeve-valved radial air-cooled engine.
		A scaled-down version of the engine, the Bristol Siddeley Gyron Junior, was used on the Bristol 188 stainless steel research aircraft, which was designed to investigate the effect of supersonic speeds on airframe structure.

		Therefore, the Bristol-Siddeley Olympus Mk.320 was chosen as basis for the European SST powerplant.
		The magnesium-zirconium intake casing of the early Olympus was replaced in Concorde by a titanium alloy casing.
		Primary and secondary exhaust nozzles The primary exhaust nozzle is composed of a straight jet pipe and a convergent nozzle.

	C-W Conqueror
		The take-off distance is made possible by the high static thrust of the Bristol Olympus engines used (38,000 lb.
		The short landing distance of the Conqueror is due to the use of flaps in conjunction with the use of disk brakes on the landing gear.
		The Olympus engine is a gas turbine engine of the two-spool type, each compressor has its own turbine (the "two-spool").

		Olympus admitted its presence in the market is weak, even though the business is a highly attractive one, according to a presentation given yesterday to outline its new strategy.
		Olympus said it will focus its digital camera business more on high-end SLR devices and away from consumer-oriented compact cameras, the company said.

	Famous Vulcans - XA903 Olympus 593
		In turn the Olympus 320 can trace its origins back to the Olympus 301 which powered the later versions of the Vulcan B. Mk 2, so in fitting an Olympus 593 to a Vulcan B Mk 1, we were keeping it in the family, so to speak.
		'The Olympus 593 installation on XA903, consisting of one half of a Concorde nacelle, was slung underneath the bomb bay, fuel and water tanks plus instrumentation and control avionics filling the original bomb-bay space.
		A water spray grid containing over a hundred nozzles was mounted ahead of the Olympus 593 air intake, and water was sprayed into the engine at varying concentrations with the intake de-icing system in operation.

	TURBOKART
		The Rolls Royce Olympus Turbojet is somewhat of a unique engine in that it is the only afterburning turbojet engine used to power a commercial aircraft.
		In it's final iteration, the Olympus 593 could produce a maximum thrust output of 38,050 lbs of thrust, with afterburner.
		The Olympus engines on the Concorde would not function without the complex intake system located in the front of the Concorde engine nacelles.

	Vulcans in Camera - Avro Vulcan B1 XA901 at RAF Cranwell.
		Before deliveries commenced, Bristols anticipated that the first Vulcan B1 deliveries would be with the Olympus 101, being replaced in production and by retrofit with the improved Olympus 3.
		The Olympus 104 had the same take-off power as the proposed Olympus 3.
		Though many texts state that most 101-engined B1s were ultimately reengined with 104s, it appears that this may not have been the case.

	Avro Vulcan
		Development of the intended Bristol Olympus engines was running behind schedule at the time, and so the first aircraft was fitted with four 6,500 lb (2,948 kg) thrust Rolls-Royce Avon R.A.3s.
		The Olympus Mk 100 engine of 9,750 lb (4,423 kg) thrust was first installed on the second prototype (VX777), which was initially flown on 3 September 1953.

		Vickers insisted the aircraft be assembled in their works at Brooklands, which had only a tiny airfield.
		Apart from the engine's instability at high power, the two Olympus engines simply did not fit into the fuselage as designed.

		The leader among these was Bristol which, in 1959, merged with the motor car and aero-engine maker Armstrong Siddeley.
		Among many strengths Bristol Siddeley brought to the partnership were the unique Pegasus vectored thrust turbofan, which powers the Harrier jump jet, and the Olympus 593 that powered Concorde - the world’s only supersonic airliner that was in service from 1976 to 2003.

	CONCORDE SST : Powerplant
		The Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus engines that are fitted to Concorde are a highly developed version of the Bristol-Siddeley Olympus that was fitted to the Vulcan bomber, which generated 11,000Lbs of thrust.
		Roll-Royce provided the development of the Olympus engines while SNECMA developed the exhaust and reheat system.
		On the prototypes this powerplant system was upgraded to generate 33,000Lbs of thrust and by the time it was fitted to the production aircraft, 38,050Lbs were available.
