Abstract:
A turbofan engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a fan including an array of fan blades rotatable about an engine axis, a compressor including a first compressor section and a second compressor section, the second compressor section including a second compressor section inlet with a compressor inlet annulus area, a fan duct including a fan duct annulus area outboard of the second compressor section inlet, and a turbine having a first turbine section driving the first compressor section, a second turbine section driving the fan through an epicyclic gearbox, the second turbine section including blades and vanes, and wherein the second turbine section defines a maximum gas path radius and the fan blades define a maximum radius, and a ratio of the maximum gas path radius to the maximum radius of the fan blades is less than 0.6.
