Abstract:
A gas turbine engine includes a fan shaft and a support which supports at least a portion of the fan shaft. The support defines at least one of a support transverse and a support lateral stiffness. A gear system drives the fan shaft. A flexible support at least partially supports the gear system, and defines at least one of a flexible support transverse and a flexible support lateral stiffness with respect to at least one of the support transverse and the support lateral stiffness. An input to the gear system defines at least one of an input transverse and an input lateral stiffness with respect to at least one of the support transverse and the support lateral stiffness. A method of designing a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A fan case for a gas turbine engine includes a fan case surrounding a fan with fan blades. A liner is disposed between the fan case and the fan and is spaced a radial distance from the fan case. A torque stop is arranged between the fan case and the liner. A method for reducing fan case liner loads is also disclosed.
Abstract:
An example turbomachine geared architecture support assembly includes a compliant member configured to hold a geared architecture within a turbomachine. The compliant member has a compliant section that permits rotation of the geared architecture relative to a fixed portion of the turbomachine. A stop limits rotation of the geared architecture relative to the fixed portion of the turbomachine.
Abstract:
Motor de turbina a gás um motor de turbina a gás inclui um suporte flexivel para um sistema de engrenagens de acionamento de ventoinha. Uma turbina de acionamento de ventoinha a alta velocidade aciona o sistema de engrenagens de acionamento da ventoinha.
Abstract:
A fan drive gear system for a gas turbine engine includes a gear system that provides a speed reduction between a fan drive turbine and a fan and a mount flexibly supporting portions of the gear system. A lubrication system supporting the fan drive gear system provides lubricant to the gear system and removes thermal energy produced by the gear system. The lubrication system includes a capacity for removing energy equal to less than about 2% of energy input into the gear system.
