摘要: The invention concerns an aircraft propulsion control system in which a gas turbine engine has an actuable flow opening for control of flow to or from a portion of the engine. One or more sensor is arranged to sense a condition indicative of vapour trail formation by the exhaust flow from the engine. A controller is arranged to control actuation of the flow opening so as to reduce the efficiency of the engine upon sensing of said condition by the one or more sensor. In one example, the flow opening is a variable area fan nozzle.

摘要: This invention concerns an aircraft propulsion system in which an engine has an engine core comprising a compressor, a combustor and a turbine driven by a flow of combustion products of the combustor. At least one propulsive fan generates a mass flow of air to propel the aircraft. An electrical energy store is provided on board the aircraft. At least one electric motor is arranged to drive the propulsive fan and the engine core compressor. A controller controls the at least one electric motor to mitigate the creation of a contrail caused by the engine combustion products by altering the ratio of the mass flow of air by the propulsive fan to the flow of combustion products of the combustor. The at least one electric motor is controlled so as to selectively drive both the propulsive fan and engine core compressor.

摘要: A gas turbine engine may include a high pressure compressor coupled to a high pressure turbine by a high pressure shaft, a core combustor located downstream of the high pressure compressor and upstream of the high pressure turbine, and a low pressure compressor provided upstream of the high pressure compressor. The low pressure compressor may be configured to direct core airflow to the high pressure compressor and first bypass airflow which bypasses the high pressure compressor, core combustor and high pressure turbine through a first bypass duct. The engine may further include a mixer downstream of the high pressure turbine and low pressure compressor, the mixer being configured to mix the core and first bypass airflows. The engine also may include a re-heat combustor configured to combust fuel with both core airflow and first bypass airflow. A low pressure turbine may be provided downstream of the re-heat combustor and coupled to the low pressure compressor (14) by a low pressure shaft, the low pressure and high pressure shafts being independently rotatable. A shaft power transfer arrangement may be provided, which is configured to selectively transfer power between the low pressure and high pressure shafts.

摘要: A bearing arrangement comprises: first and second thrust bearings, each including an inner race which is disposed on a shaft and an outer race which is supported by at least one resilient element. Applying a shaft thrust load elastically deforms the resilient elements so as to axially displace the respective outer races in order that the thrust load is shared between the first and second thrust bearings.
