    摘要: A gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a propulsor section including a propulsor supported on a propulsor shaft, a turbine section including a turbine shaft, a compressor section, and an epicyclic gear train interconnecting the propulsor shaft and the turbine shaft. The gear train includes a sun gear coupled to the turbine shaft, intermediary gears arranged circumferentially about and meshing with the sun gear, a carrier supporting the intermediary gears, and a ring gear including first and second portions each having an inner periphery with teeth intermeshing with the intermediate gears. The first and second portions have axially opposed faces abutting one another at a radial interface. The first and second portions have grooves at the radial interface that form a hole that expels oil through the ring gear.

    摘要: An example gas turbine engine includes a propulsor assembly consisting of a fan module and a fan drive turbine module, an epicyclic gear train, a high spool and a low spool. A weight of the propulsor assembly is less than 40% of a total weight of a gas turbine engine. The high spool includes an outer shaft, a high pressure turbine and a high pressure compressor. The low spool includes an inner shaft, a low pressure turbine and a low pressure compressor. The inner shaft drives the propulsor through the gear train to drive the propulsor. A weight of the propulsor is greater than a weight of the low pressure turbine.
