It evolved from the Turbomeca Orédon gas turbine and was initially conceived as an airborne auxiliary power unit before becoming a major helicopter turboshaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe engine powered important early turbine helicopters including the Sud Aviation SE 3130 Alouette II, Alouette III, SA 315B Lama and licensed HAL Chetak and Cheetah variants. It was also used in auxiliary-power applications associated with aircraft including the Handley Page Victor, Blackburn Beverly, Short Belfast and the Hawker Siddeley Trident, whose Artouste Mk 113 APU installation is documented in this collection. Licensed or related production involved Bristol Siddeley\/Blackburn, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and Continental CAE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: single-spool centrifugal or axial-centrifugal turboshaft with an annular combustion chamber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtouste II: single-stage centrifugal compressor, two-stage turbine and approximately 400 hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtouste III: axial-centrifugal compressor, three-stage turbine and approximately 550–590 hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower range: approximately 400–590 hp, or 298–440 kW, depending on variant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression ratio: approximately 3.8:1 to 5.2:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximate weight range: 110–182 kg, depending on configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuel: aviation kerosene, including Jet A-1, JP-1 or JP-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNotable feature: a rotating centrifugal fuel-atomizer system associated with Joseph Szydlowski's Turbomeca designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eManuals Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurbomoteur Artouste IIIB \u0026amp; IIIB1 Maintenance Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e — Document 218 00 937; original issue September 1960; Updating No. 34 dated September 2009; Maintenance Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurbomeca Artouste II C Aircraft Helicopter Engine Maintenance Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1960; Maintenance Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurbo Moteur Artouste II C Maintenance Spare Parts Catalogue\u003c\/strong\u003e — Document 202 00 931; original issue June 1987, superseding and taking precedence over the previous edition; a copy carrying Updating No. 11 dated December 2009 is also included; bilingual French\/English; Parts Catalogue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurbomoteur Artouste II C Maintenance Tools Catalogue\u003c\/strong\u003e — Document 202 00 932; original issue June 1987; Updating No. 6 dated December 2003; bilingual French\/English; Tools Catalogue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurbo Moteur Artouste III Maintenance Tools Catalogue\u003c\/strong\u003e — Document 218 01 938; bilingual French\/English; published by Turbomeca, Bordes, France; date not stated on the cover; Tools Catalogue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtouste Airborne Auxiliary Power Plant Mk 113 — General \u0026amp; Technical Information and Minor Repairs\u003c\/strong\u003e — AP 102C-0205-16A (Revised); Royal Air Force publication issued by command of the Defence Council, Ministry of Defence; sponsored for use in the RAF by D.Mech.
