Abstract:
A gas turbine engine (10) includes: a compressor system comprising a low pressure compressor (15) and a high pressure compressor (16) coupled to low pressure and high pressure shafts, respectively (23, 24); an inner core casing (34) provided radially inwardly of compressor blades (42), and an outer core casing provided outwardly of compressor blades, the inner core casing and outer core casing defining a core working gas flow path (B) therebetween; a fan (13) coupled to the low pressure shaft via a gearbox (14); wherein the outer core casing comprises a first outer core casing (48) and a second outer core casing (50) spaced radially outwardly from the first outer core casing, and wherein at an axial plane (E) of an inlet to the high pressure compressor, the second outer core casing has an inner radius at least 1.4 times the inner radius of the first outer core casing.
