摘要: A gas turbine engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a propulsor section, a geared architecture, a high spool and a low spool. The high spool includes a high pressure compressor and a high pressure turbine. The low spool includes a low pressure compressor and a low pressure turbine. At least one stage of the turbine section includes an array of rotatable blades and an array of vanes. A ratio of the number of vanes to the number blades is greater than or equal to 1.55. A mechanical tip rotational Mach number of the blades is greater than or equal to 0.5 at an approach speed.

摘要: A fan section for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a fan rotor having fan blades, and a plurality of fan exit guide vanes positioned downstream of the fan rotor. The fan rotor is configured to be driven through a gear reduction. A ratio of a number of fan exit guide vanes to a number of fan blades is defined. The fan exit guide vanes are provided with optimized sweep and optimized lean.

摘要: A gas turbine engine includes a fan rotor driven by a fan drive turbine about an axis through a gear reduction to reduce a speed of the fan rotor relative to a speed of the fan drive turbine. A fan case surrounds the fan rotor, and a core engine with a compressor section, including a low pressure compressor. The fan rotor delivers air into a bypass duct defined between the fan case and the core engine. A rigid connection is between the fan case and the core engine includes three triangular-frame connecting members rigidly connected to the fan case at a fan case connection point, and to the core engine at a core engine connection point. The triangular-frame connecting members each are defined by two rigid legs which extend between the fan case and to the core engine, along directions each have a component extending radially inwardly and a component in opposed circumferential directions to each other. A plurality of non-structural fan exit guide vanes and the non-structural fan exit guide vanes are provided with an acoustic feature to reduce noise. The non-structural fan exit guide vanes are rigidly mounted to at least one of the fan case and the core engine.
