    摘要: A multi-engine system includes a first gas turbine engine that includes a first compressor and a first turbine. The multi-engine system may further include a second gas turbine engine that has a second compressor and a second turbine. Still further, the multi-engine system may include a first crossover cooling network configured to route a first crossover airflow from the first compressor of the first gas turbine engine to the second turbine of the second gas turbine engine and a second crossover cooling network configured to route a second crossover airflow from the second compressor of the second gas turbine engine to the first turbine of the first gas turbine engine.

    摘要: A turboshaft engine includes a core section extending between an inlet and an outlet of the turboshaft engine. The core section includes a compressor, a main combustor, and a main turbine, such that combustion products from the main combustor drives rotation of the turbine and the compressor. A power turbine is fluidly connected to the main turbine and driven by exhaust from the main turbine. A primary bypass is fluidly connected to the inlet and the outlet. The primary bypass directs a portion of an airflow entering the inlet around the core section to the outlet. A secondary bypass is located in the core section and is configured to divert a portion of a core airflow of the core section around the main combustor and the main turbine to the power turbine.
