Yeah, sure there's all sorts of complexities...
BUT
Don't your airliner engines operate near 100% N1 during the takeoff roll?
Simple yes or no will suffice.
Footnotes:
-I think some engines allow 105% N1 or something like that.
-Yeah, there's instances where the engines must be powered up incrementally as you build some speed (like just about every MD-8x takeoff I've ever ridden).
-Yeah, computerized controls are making a few zillion adjustments to all sorts of factors too.

Re: Supersonic N1 thread.
The simple answer is no, we're nowhere near 100% N1. In fact, in my entire career I have NEVER seen 100% N1.

Re: Supersonic N1 thread.
Ok, would you please tell us a rough range of what you see when you are at 'full power' and taking off?...we're nowhere near 100% N1....

Thank you.NK-12: 850 RPM, 220"; 556 MPH
GE36: 1395 RPM, 140"; 581 MPH
(I'm actually a little bit disappointed with my chosen engines )
I would really like to see some manure shovelled to the engines you listed and watch what happens when the shit hits the fan at 100% N1.Signed, 3BS, the hell better agronomist and shit-shoveler.

Low 90s on the IAE-powered 'Bus. I should add TOGA thrust takeoffs are VERY rare.Ok, would you please tell us a rough range of what you see when you are at 'full power' and taking off?...we're nowhere near 100% N1....

Thank you. At 90% N1 most of my ass-hat-not-quite-correct tip speeds are still super sonic-ish.Low 90s on the IAE-powered 'Bus.

Re: Supersonic N1 thread.
I have edited my post at JP- reducing turbofan speeds by 10% to address Flyboy's comment that N1 generally only reaches the low '90%s....we're nowhere near 100% N1....
I suppose the next step is to make a graph as Ardvark2zz would.
