摘要: A turbomachinery engine includes an unducted rotor assembly, a low-pressure turbine, a low-pressure shaft, a gearbox, and an engine correlation parameter. The unducted rotor assembly includes a plurality of rotor blades arranged in a single row and defining a blade diameter. The gearbox includes an input, an output, and a gear ratio. The input of the gearbox is coupled to the low-pressure shaft (which is coupled to the LPT), and the output of the gearbox is coupled to the unducted rotor assembly. The engine correlation parameter is greater than 0.17 and less than 0.83. The engine correlation parameter equals D/N/GR, where D is the blade tip diameter measured in feet, N is the stage count of the low-pressure turbine, and GR is the gear ratio of the gearbox. The unducted propulsor assembly optionally includes a disk loading within a range of 60-180 HP/ft2 at a takeoff flight condition.

摘要: An inlet duct for a nacelle of a ducted fan engine includes an inlet portion at an upstream end of the inlet duct, an acoustic liner arranged downstream of the inlet portion, and a fan section arranged downstream of the acoustic liner. The inlet portion and the acoustic liner are coupled together at an inlet-acoustic liner interface extending circumferentially about the inner surface of the inlet duct, and the acoustic liner and the fan section are coupled together at a fan section hardwall-acoustic liner interface extending circumferentially about the inner surface of the inlet duct. At least one of the acoustic liner, the inlet-acoustic liner interface, and the fan section hardwall-acoustic liner interface having a structure that circumferentially alters a magnitude and a phase of an acoustic wave reflection of the inlet duct to attenuate flutter bite of a fan.

摘要: An aircraft engine includes a low pressure spool, a high pressure spool, and an alternative power source. The alternative power source is configured to add power to the high pressure spool. A controller is configured to determine a noise sensitive condition; and control, in response to determining the noise sensitive condition, the alternative power source to add power to the high pressure spool.
