摘要: A fan-turbine rotor assembly includes a diffuser section (114) which turns and diffuses the airflow from a radial core airflow passage (80) toward an axial airflow direction. Diffuser flow passages communicate with the diffuser passages (144) at a location which reduces separation of the airflow as the airflow is turned from the radial core airflow passage (80) toward an axial airflow direction through airflow aspiration at the potentially turbulent locations.

摘要: A tip turbine engine (10) provides first and second turbines (32) rotatably driven by a combustor (30) generating a high-energy gas stream. The first turbine (32) is mounted at an outer periphery of a first fan (24a), such that the first fan is rotatably driven by the first turbine (32a). The second turbine (32b) is mounted at an outer periphery of a second fan (24b), and is rotatably driven by the high-energy gas stream. In one embodiment, the first turbine (32a) rotatably drives a plurality of stages of first compressor blades (54) in an axial compressor (22) in a first rotational direction, while the second turbine (32b) rotatably drives a plurality of stages of second compressor blades (52) in the axial compressor (22) in a second rotational direction opposite the first. By rotatably driving alternating stages of compressor blades in opposite directions, the efficiency of the axial compressor (22) is increased and/or the number of stages of compressor blades can be reduced. Other variations are described in additional embodiments.

摘要: A tip turbine engine provides increased efficiency while eliminating or reducing the number of axial compressor stages by moving the core airflow inlet aft of the fan. As a result, the core airflow entering the core airflow inlet is the fan exhaust, which is already at an increased pressure. A portion of the fan exhaust is guided radially inward, then axially forward and then radially outward through compressor chambers in the hollow fan blades for further, centrifugal compression.

摘要: A tip turbine engine (10) and a method of operating the engine provides increased efficiency while eliminating or educing the number of axial compressor (122) stages by moving the core airflow inlet (27) aft of the fan (24).

A portion of the fan exhaust is guided radially inward, then axially forward and then radially outward through compressor chambers (72) in the hollow fan blades (28) for further, centrifugal compression.
