GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH POWER DENSITY RANGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18107126 titled 'GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH POWER DENSITY RANGE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a gas turbine engine with specific components and a power density ratio.

  • Gas turbine engine with a propulsor section, compressor section, geared architecture, and turbine section.
  • Compressor section includes a first and second compressor.
  • Turbine section includes a first turbine and a drive turbine.
  • Power density ratio of the engine is between 4.75 and 5.5 lbf/in.
  • Power density ratio is calculated by dividing the thrust provided by the engine by the volume of the turbine section.


Original Abstract Submitted

A gas turbine engine includes a propulsor section including a propulsor, a compressor section including a first compressor and a second compressor, a geared architecture, a turbine section including a first turbine and a drive turbine, and a power density of greater than or equal to 4.75 and less than or equal to 5.5 lbf/in, wherein the power density is a ratio of a thrust provided by the engine to a volume of the turbine section.
