    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to a gas turbine engine including a turbine section including a first rotating component interdigitated along a longitudinal direction with a second rotating component. The first rotating component and the second rotating component are each coupled to a speed reduction assembly in counter-rotating arrangement. The first rotating component comprising an outer shroud and a plurality of outer shroud airfoils extended inward along a radial direction from the outer shroud. A connecting member couples the outer shroud to a radially extended first rotor. The second rotating component comprising an inner shroud and a plurality of inner shroud airfoils extended outward along the radial direction from the inner shroud, the plurality of inner shroud airfoils in alternating arrangement along the longitudinal direction with the plurality of outer shroud airfoils. The gas turbine engine defines a radius per unit thrust defined by a maximum radius at the turbine section over a maximum thrust output between approximately 0.0004 to approximately 0.0010 inches per pound thrust.

    摘要: A propulsion system includes a fan, a gear, a turbine configured to drive the gear to, in turn, drive the fan. The turbine has an exit point, and a diameter (Dt) is defined at the exit point. A nacelle surrounds a core engine housing. The fan is configured to deliver air into a bypass duct defined between the nacelle and the core engine housing. A core engine exhaust nozzle is provided downstream of the exit point. A downstream most point of the core engine exhaust nozzle is defined at a distance from the exit point. A ratio of the distance to the diameter is greater than or equal to about 0.90.

    摘要: A tip turbine engine (10) according to the present invention provides at least one gear (90) coupling rotation of a bypass fan (24) to an axial compressor (22), such that the axial compressor (22) is driven by rotation of the fan (24) at a rate different from than the rate of the fan. In one embodiment, the rate of rotation of the axial compressor (22) is increased relative to a rate of rotation of the fan (24). By increasing the rotation rate, the compression provided by the axial compressor is increased, while the number of stages of the axial compressor blades may be reduced. As a result, the length of the axial compressor and the overall length of the tip turbine engine are decreased.
