Abstract

1,006,205. Gas turbine jet engines. ROLLSROYCE Ltd. Nov. 1, 1963 [Oct. 5, 1963], No. 39309/63. Heading FIJ. [Also in Division B7] A gas turbine jet propulsion engine comprises in flow series a compressor, combustion equipment and a turbine driving the compressor and one or more orientable propulsion nozzles which receive the exhaust gases from the turbine and a part of the air compressed by the compressor, this air having by-passed the combustion equipment and turbine. In the two-shaft by-pass engine shown, two nozzles 28 are provided and are rotatable about an axis 30 by an air motor (Fig. 2, not shown). The cold flow passes into a manifold 20 encircling the engine through an annular duct 18 and the hot flow passes into the manifold through a chamber 25 and a duct 22, guide vanes 21, 27 imparting a circumferential velocity component to the gases. In a modification (Fig. 4, not shown) the vanes 21 are dispensed with and the vanes 27 are replaced by a series of nozzles. Alternatively (Figs. 5 and 6, not shown) the vanes 27 may be dispensed with and the vanes 21 replaced by a perforated plate. The engine may be of the single shaft type with the cold flow provided by a fan, the blades of which are mounted on the tips of the compressor blades. The engine thrust may be increased by burning fuel in the duct 18 or in the duct 22. The invention is also applicable to engines with centrifugal compressors. The engine is fitted in the fuselage of an aircraft with the axis 30 passing through the centre of gravity and two vertically disposed lift engines may also be provided, one ahead of and one behind the unit.
