Various design and development problems related to the integration of small turbine engines in aircraft installations are reviewed. Important considerations in turbo-prop installations are vibration transmissibility, propeller-whirl flutter, engine structure strength and stiffness, mount failure modes, and nacelle clearances. Additional requirements are adequate compartment ventilation and engine oil cooling with minimum aerodynamic loss. The installations of the PT6 series of turbo-prop engines are discussed in particular. (Peters)
