This paper describes the evolution of the Garrett-AiResearch TPE331 turboprop engine. It discusses the reasoning behind the original design and describes the subsequent growth of the engine from 575 to 1040 hp within the same engine frame size. The performance of the various models and the design features that provided minimum fuel consumption and maximum reliability are also discussed.
