    Abstract: A fan rotor includes a rotor body with at least one slot receiving a fan blade. The fan blade has an outer surface, at least at some areas, formed of a first material and an airfoil extending from a dovetail. The dovetail is received in the slot. A spacer is positioned radially inwardly of the dovetail biasing the fan blade against the slot. The spacer includes a grounding element, which is in contact with a portion of the dovetail formed of a second material that is more electrically conductive than the first material. The grounding element is in contact with a rotating element that rotates with the rotor. The rotating element is formed of a third material. The first material is less electrically conductive than the third material. The grounding and rotating elements form a ground path from the portion of the dovetail into the rotor.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine comprises a core engine, a fan, a bypass duct and a clutch. The fan is driven by the core engine. The bypass duct is configured to receive airflow from the fan. The clutch links the core engine and the fan. The core comprises a reverse-flow, two-spool gas generator in one embodiment. In another embodiment, the fan is driven by a free turbine aerodynamically powered by the core engine. In one embodiment, the clutch includes reverse gearing to reverse rotational output of the fan. In one embodiment, the clutch and reverse gearing are implemented in an epicyclic gear system.

    Abstract: A thermal system for a gas turbine engine includes a bypass flow duct and a compressor flow duct which meets with the bypass flow duct at an intersection. A valve is located within the intersection and is movable between a first position and a second position. First position is operable to selectively communicate fan bypass flow from the bypass flow duct and block the compressor flow duct. The second position is operable to selectively block the bypass flow duct and communicate bleed flow through the compressor flow duct.
