    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a fan section that includes a fan with fan blades. The fan section drives air along a bypass flow path in a bypass duct. A gear reduction is in driving engagement with the fan and has a gear reduction ratio of greater than 3.0 and less than 4.0. A low spool includes a low pressure turbine that drives a low pressure compressor and drives the gear reduction to drive the fan at a speed slower than the low pressure turbine. A high spool includes a high pressure turbine that drives a high pressure compressor. The high pressure compressor includes a pressure ratio of greater than 6.5 and less than 11.5. A ratio of a product of a pressure ratio of the fan with a pressure ratio of the low pressure compressor pressure to the pressure ratio of the high pressure compressor is greater than 0.35 and less than 0.90. An exhaust gas exit temperature is greater than 900 degrees Fahrenheit and less than 1000 degrees Fahrenheit at maximum take-off.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a fan drive turbine driving a low pressure compressor, and driving a gear reduction to in turn drive a fan rotor at a speed slower than the fan drive turbine. The turbine section further includes a high pressure turbine driving the high pressure compressor. The fan drive turbine and low pressure compressor are connected by a shaft and the fan drive turbine, the shaft and the low pressure compressor define a low pressure spool. The gas turbine engine is rated to provide an amount of thrust at maximum takeoff, and a low spool thrust ratio defined as a ratio of a torque on the low pressure spool at maximum takeoff in ft-lbs and the maximum takeoff thrust being defined in lbf, with the low spool torque ratio being greater than or equal to 0.70 ft-lb/lbf, and less than or equal to 1.2 ft-lb/lbf.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure may include, among other things, a fan section including a fan having a plurality of fan blades and including an outer housing surrounding the fan blades to establish a bypass duct, a geared architecture, a first spool including a first shaft that interconnects a first compressor and a fan drive turbine, the fan drive turbine driving the fan through the geared architecture. The gas turbine engine is rated to provide an amount of thrust at ground idle, and the gas turbine engine is rated to provide an amount of thrust at maximum takeoff. A thrust ratio is defined as a ratio of the amount of thrust at ground idle divided by the amount of thrust at maximum takeoff. The thrust ratio can be less than or equal to 0.050.
