摘要: A toothed coupling mechanism for an assembly of rotating elements of an aircraft gas turbine engine includes a pair of coupling halves having an axial toothed coupling interface therebetween. Each coupling half has a plurality of splined teeth inter-engaged about an axis for transmitting torque therebetween. A protrusion is located on one of the splined teeth of one of the coupling halves. A splined tooth of the other coupling half comes into contact with the protrusion in a situation of uncoupling of said coupling halves.

摘要: A gas turbine engine includes a first spool, a second spool, a third spool, and a epicyclic differential. The epicyclic differential includes a sun gear, planet gears supported from a planet carrier, a ring gear, and a locking member, each housed within an accessory gearbox. The planet carrier couples to the second spool. The sun gear couples to the third spool, and the ring gear couples to engine accessories. A method of operating the gas turbine engine includes supplying a first fuel flow rate to a primary combustor associated with the first and third spools and supplying a second fuel flow rate to a secondary combustor associated with the second spool based on a power lever angle within an intermediate power level range.

摘要: The present invention provides a power device generating greater propelling force and finds that traditional power devices do not include all propelling forces based on the fundamental core propelling force source problem. External pressure is guided to the traditional power devices since the inner speed is higher the outer speed, power consumption for overcoming fluid resistance is high, and mutual contradiction results are obtained. The unique difference between the present invention and general common sense lies in opposite fluid pressure directions; inner fluid channels and outer fluid channels with higher flow speeds are formed to generate pressure differences which guides the fluid pressure to the outside and serve as propelling force, thus the present invention creatively finds three propelling force sources, two lifting force or propelling force sources of helicopters or airplanes driven by propellers and two propelling force sources for sufficient burning of fuel in combustion chambers of engines.

摘要: A section for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a rotor including a row of blades extending in a radial direction outwardly from a hub. The row of blades deliver flow to a bypass flow path, an intermediate flow path, and a core flow path. A first case surrounds the row of blades to establish the bypass flow path. A first flow splitter divides flow between the bypass flow path and a second duct. A row of guide vanes extends in the radial direction across the bypass flow path. A second flow splitter radially inboard of the first flow splitter divides flow from the second duct between the intermediate flow path and the core flow path. A bypass port interconnects the intermediate and bypass flow paths. A method of operation for a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

摘要: A fan drive gear system for a gas turbine engine includes a gear system that provides a speed reduction between a fan drive turbine and a fan and a mount flexibly supporting portions of the gear system. A lubrication system supporting the fan drive gear system provides lubricant to the gear system and removes thermal energy produced by the gear system. The lubrication system includes a capacity for removing thermal energy equal to less than about 2% of power input into the gear system.
