GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH FORWARD MOMENT ARM

摘要

A gas turbine engine includes a plurality of fan blades rotatable about an axis, wherein each of the plurality of fan blades includes a leading edge. The gas turbine engine also includes turbine section includes an aft most turbine blade having a trailing edge and a geared architecture driven by the turbine section for rotating the plurality of fan blades about the axis. A center of gravity of the gas turbine engine is located a first axial distance from the trailing edge of the aft most turbine blade that is between about 35% and about 75% of a total length between the leading edge of the plurality of fan blades and the trailing edge of the aft most turbine blade.
