Propeller Prop
Nov/100
What exactly does a turbo prop do that a regular propeller driven airplane doesn't do?
In other words, what's the difference?
A turbo prop uses a turbine engine, just like a jet. However, the power from the turbine is transmitted through a reduction gear/transmission to turn the prop. A prop is a prop is a prop. It is what produces the thrust which exceeds drag to move the aircraft through the air, just like in a piston driven aircraft.
Turbo props rotate at a constant velocity and rely solely on pitch changes for thrust.
On some turboprops, the turbine exhaust provides a modest amount of thrust, usually less than 10%.
Turbo props rotate at a much higher speed because they are not tied to the RPM limits of a piston driven engine.
So to answer the question: A turbo prop uses a turbine engine, rotates at higher RPM vs. normal piston driven prop aircraft and relies solely on pitch change to provide thrust.
