Abstract
1,257,497. Gas turbine by-pass type jet engines. ROLLS-ROYCE Ltd. April 15, 1970 [April 16, 1969], No. 19360/69. Heading F1J. A gas turbine by-pass type jet engine comprises compressor means, combustion means and turbine means, a rotatable main fan extending completely across the by-pass duct and a rotatable secondary fan is disposed upstream of the main fan and extends only partly across the by-pass duct, the secondary fan being driven by the turbine means. The engine shown in Fig. 1, comprises an LP compressor 16, HP compressor 22, combustion equipment 12, HP turbine 24, LP turbine 18 and a further turbine 44, the HP turbine 24 driving the HP compressor 22 through shaft 26, the LP turbine 18 driving the LP compressor 16 through shaft 20 and the further turbine 44 driving a secondary fan 40 through shaft 42. The engine comprises also a by-pass duct 30 in which is disposed a main fan 28 which extends wholly across the by-pass duct, the secondary fan extending only partly across the by-pass duct. The main fan 28 is mounted on the stator casing 32 of the LP compressor, the casing being mounted for rotation, the compressor "stator" blades 34 acting as turbine blades, whereby the main fan is driven. A splitter 38 extends from the main fan blades 28 and the secondary fan blades 40 extend to the splitter. In a second embodiment the stator casing 32 of the LP compressor is fixed and the main fan 28 is rotatably mounted thereon, the main fan blades being driven by air from the secondary fan 40 acting on the radially inner portions of the fan blades. In a further embodiment the main fan 28 is mounted for rotation in bearings disposed adjacent the inner shaft 42 and not on the stator casing 32; the main fan is again driven by air from the secondary fan 40 acting on the radially inner portions of the fan blades.
