    Abstract: A gas turbine engine (10) and method of operation. The gas turbine engine (10) comprises a heating device configured to heat a rotor disc (32, 72) of the engine (10). A method of operation the heating device comprises detecting an engine acceleration or deceleration event, or determining that an engine acceleration or deceleration event is imminent or may be imminent. On detection of an engine acceleration or deceleration event, or in advance of the engine acceleration or deceleration event, increasing turbine rotor disc heat input to raise a temperature of the turbine rotor disc or reduce a cooling rate of the rotor disc.

    Abstract: A turboshaft gas turbine engine comprises, in fluid flow series, a gas-generator compressor, a combustor, a gas-generator turbine, and a free power turbine. The expansion ratios of the turbines are dependent upon an outlet temperature of the combustor, and an expansion relationship between the turbines is defined as the ratio of expansion ratios of the turbines over a running range of non-dimensional power outputs of the gas turbine engine. A second derivative of the expansion relationship is from 0.6 to 1.0.

    Abstract: An air duct arrangement (58) for an aircraft (40). The arrangement (58) comprises an environmental control system (ECS) (50). The ECS (50) comprises an air inlet (60) arranged to ingest a low velocity portion of a boundary layer flow adjacent the aircraft fuselage (44), and to deliver a flow of air to an environmental control system air intake (66). The arrangement (58) further comprises an ejector (70) arranged to receive an ECS exhaust (76), and boundary layer air from an aft region of the aircraft (40), and to exhaust air to the ambient airstream at an aft portion of the aircraft (40).
