<p>The engine 110 is a multiple shaft ducted fan by-pass type gas turbine engine. An electrical generator 150 is driven by the low pressure shaft 116. An electrical motor 152 is driven by power generated by the generator 150. This is shown as being external to the engine. The generator 150 and motor 152 are connected, in use, by an uninterrupted electrical conductor arrangement 156. The motor 152 may drive hydraulic pumps or other systems. Thus, power is taken off the engine in purely electrical form with significant consequential advantages in weight reduction, simplicity and reliability. <IMAGE></p> |
