In an automotive gas turbine power plant including at least one power turbine rotor and a further turbine rotor driving the compressor of the plant, the latter rotor is undersized with respect to the power consumption by the compressor during normal operation and is augmented from the power turbine rotor. The turbine rotors are interconnected by a stepped planetary gearing to which the output shaft is also connected. An infinitely variable transmission is provided between the input to and the output from the gearing for continuously changing the gear ratio. |
