GEARED TURBOFAN GAS TURBINE ENGINE ARCHITECTURE

摘要

A gas turbine engine includes a fan rotatable about an axis, a compressor section, a combustor in fluid communication with the compressor section, and a turbine section in fluid communication with the combustor. The turbine section includes a fan drive turbine and a second turbine. The second turbine is disposed forward of the fan drive turbine. The fan drive turbine includes at least three rotors and at least one rotor having a bore radius (R) and a live rim radius (r), and a ratio of r/R is between about 2.00 and about 2.30. A speed change system is driven by the fan drive turbine for rotating the fan about the axis.
