Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the field of aeronautical thrusters, in particular airplane thrusters, along which a gas flow can circulate from upstream to downstream, each thruster having a longitudinal axis and comprising a hub and (at least) two annular rows of non-ducted blades, one upstream, the other downstream, along the longitudinal axis.
- the relative qualifiers "upstream” and “downstream” are defined relative to each other with reference to the flow of gases in the turbomachine in the longitudinal direction (i.e. the direction of the longitudinal axis).
- the propellant may comprise (at least) a heat engine, in particular a turbine engine, a turbojet engine, a turbofan, and/or (at least) an electric motor, and/or (at least) a hydrogen engine, and/or ( at least) a hybrid engine: thermal and/or electric and/or hydrogen.
- a heat engine in particular a turbine engine, a turbojet engine, a turbofan, and/or (at least) an electric motor, and/or (at least) a hydrogen engine, and/or ( at least) a hybrid engine: thermal and/or electric and/or hydrogen.
- turbomachine a propellant in which there is an exchange of energy between a flowing fluid and a rotor.
- a “non-ducted” fan turbomachine (or turboprops of the "Propfan” or “Open rotor” or “Counter-Rotating Open Rotor” type) is a type of turbomachine in which the fan (or propeller) extends outside the crankcase, unlike conventional turbomachines (“Turbofan” type) in which the fan is shrouded.
- An example of such a turbine engine is shown in Figures 1 and 2.
- the turbine engine 10 comprises a hub 12, defining the crankcase, and on which is mounted an upstream annular row 14 of unducted blades 18 and a downstream annular row 16 of unducted blades 18 which are spaced apart along a longitudinal axis X of the turbomachine 10.
- the orientation qualifiers such as “longitudinal”, “radial” or “circumferential”, are defined by reference to the longitudinal axis X of the turbomachine 10.
- turbomachine 10 comprises, from upstream to downstream inside the crankcase, one (or more) compressor (s) 2, at least one combustion chamber 4, one (or more) turbine (s) 6 and at least one nozzle exhaust 8.
- turbomachines of the “Unducted Single (or Stator) Fan” (USF) type are known, in each of which, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the first upstream annular row 14 of blades 18 non-ducted is rotatably mounted around the longitudinal axis X and the downstream annular row 16 of non-ducted blades 18 is fixed.
- the direction of rotation of the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 is not decisive.
- the downstream annular row 16 can be centered on an axis that may or may not coincide with the longitudinal axis X. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the downstream annular row 16 is centered on the longitudinal axis X.
- the upstream annular row 14 of unducted blades 18 is driven in rotation around the longitudinal axis X by the turbine(s) 6 which drive(s) themselves the ) compressor(s) 2.
- the turbomachine generally comprises a speed reduction box in order to decouple the speed of rotation of the turbines with respect to the speed of rotation of the upstream annular row 14.
- the turbine engine 10 may have a so-called “puller” configuration (upstream annular row 14 and downstream annular row 16 located at an upstream end portion of the turbine engine 10) or, as schematically in Figure 1, a so-called “pusher” configuration (upstream annular row 14 and downstream annular row 16 located at a downstream end portion of the turbine engine 10).
- the upstream annular row and the downstream annular row can surround a section of the compressor(s) 2 or of the speed reduction box of the turbomachine 10.
- the annular row upstream and the downstream annular row can surround a section of the turbine(s) 6 of the turbomachine 10.
- a known solution for reducing the level of noise emitted consists in uniformly reducing the radial dimension of each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16.
- the radially outer end of each blade 18 of the annular row upstream 14 is inscribed in a first circle 20 centered on the longitudinal axis X and the radially outer end of each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 is inscribed in a second circle 22 centered on the longitudinal axis X, the radius Re2 of the second circle 22 being less than the radius Re1 of the first circle 20.
- the current solution is not entirely satisfactory in that it allows effective noise reduction only in a configuration isolated from the turbomachine and at zero incidence. Indeed, the presence of surrounding elements (mast, fuselage, etc.), a non-zero incidence of the air flow perceived by the turbomachine 10 and the shape of the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 modify the contraction and the axisymmetricity around the longitudinal axis X of the air flow downstream of the upstream annular row 14 and/or the size of the vortices 19 present in the air flow downstream of the upstream annular row 14 so that the truncation of the blades 18 of the downstream annular row 16 no longer prevents the interaction between the blades 18 of the downstream annular row 16 and the vortices 19 formed by the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14.
- the present description aims to propose a solution to these drawbacks.
- an aeronautical thruster with a longitudinal axis comprising a hub and at least two annular rows of unducted blades comprising an upstream annular row and a downstream annular row spaced apart l from each other along said longitudinal axis, the upstream annular row being rotatable around the longitudinal axis, said downstream annular row comprising at least a first blade and a second blade each extending in a radial direction from the hub so as to define a radial dimension between said hub and a radially outer end of the respective blade, characterized in that, angularly around the longitudinal axis: - the first blade is positioned closer to an angular position at 12 o'clock or an angular position at 6 o'clock than is the second blade, and
- the second blade is positioned closer to an angular position at 3 o'clock or an angular position at 9 o'clock than is the first blade; and in that the radial dimension of the first blade is greater than the radial dimension of the second blade.
- Such a configuration makes it possible to reduce the impact of the vortices formed at the radially outer end of the blades of the upstream annular row on the second blade of the downstream annular row.
- the solution is also particularly advantageous in that it has been observed that the vortices formed by the blades of the upstream annular row are generally larger in size at the angular positions at 3 o'clock and at 9 o'clock in the downstream wake of the row upstream annular.
- the level of interaction noise ie the noise generated by the interaction of the wake of the blades of the upstream annular row on the blades of the downstream annular row
- emitted by the aeronautical thruster is therefore further reduced.
- the radial dimension of the first blade can be greater, in particular with respect to the "clipping" solution known from the state of the art, thus increasing the performance of the aeronautical propellant without increasing, or even reducing the sound level emitted by the aeronautical propellant.
- non-ducted used in reference to the upstream annular row and to the downstream annular row indicates that the free ends of the blades of the upstream annular row and of the blades of the downstream annular row are not surrounded by a nacelle , unlike conventional aeronautical thrusters in which the fan is streamlined inside a nacelle.
- the downstream annular row can be fixed around the longitudinal axis. In other words, the blades of the downstream annular row may not be driven in rotation around the longitudinal axis.
- the blades of the downstream annular row can be variable-pitch.
- the blades of the upstream annular row and/or of the downstream annular row can be of variable pitch.
- Each blade can thus be adjusted in rotation around a respective pitch change axis which extends radially. It is thus possible to adapt the pitch of the blades of the aeronautical thruster according to the operation of the aeronautical thruster and the phase of flight to improve aeronautical performance.
- the hub may also comprise a blade pitch variation system adapted to vary the incidence of the blades around the respective pitch change axis depending on the phase of flight.
- Each blade of the upstream annular row can extend in a radial direction from the hub so as to define a radial dimension between said hub and one end radially outer of the blade in question, the dimension of each of the blades of the upstream annular row being greater than the radial dimension of the first blade of the downstream annular row.
- the first blade of the downstream annular row can be truncated with respect to the blades of the upstream annular row. This limits the impact of the vortices formed at the radially outer end of the blades of the upstream annular row on the first blade of the downstream annular row and in fact also on the second blade of the downstream annular row.
- truncated blade means that the blade has a reduced radial dimension.
- the radial dimension of a blade is measured between a radially inner end of the blade, the latter being located at the level of (that is to say closest to) the hub of the aeronautical thruster, and an end radially outer of the blade.
- the radially inner end of a blade can be, longitudinally, at the level of a leading edge of the blade or at the level of the pitch change axis of the blade in question.
- the angular position of each blade around the longitudinal axis can be identified by the angular position around the longitudinal axis of the inner end of the respective blade.
- the radially inner end of a blade is also called the "blade root”.
- An angular position of each blade around the longitudinal axis can be identified by the angular position around the longitudinal axis of the inner end of the respective blade.
- the radially outer end of the blade is the opposite end to the radially inner end.
- the radially outer end of the blade may be the free end of the blade.
- the radially inner end and the radially outer end of each of the blades can be radially aligned, i.e. at the same longitudinal position. It is not excluded that the radially inner end and the radially outer end of each of the blades may be longitudinally offset relative to each other.
- the first blade and the second blade may each have a radially outer radius defined by said radially outer end, the radially outer radius of the first blade being greater than the radially outer radius of the second blade.
- the radially outer radius of a blade can be considered as the radial distance from the longitudinal axis of the radially outer end point of said blade. In other words, it is the maximum radius of the blade.
- the first blade and the second blade can each have a radially internal radius.
- the radially internal radius of a blade can be considered as the radial distance to the longitudinal axis from a radially inner end point of the blade.
- Each blade can be fixed to the hub of the aeronautical thruster at the level of the radially internal end.
- Each blade can be fixed to the hub close to the leading edge at the blade root or close to the pitch change axis at the blade root.
- the first blade and the second blade of the downstream annular row can be circumferentially consecutive.
- one (or more) blade(s) can be interposed circumferentially between the first blade and the second blade.
- each of the blades of the upstream annular row is inscribed in an outer casing of the upstream annular row.
- the radially outer end of each of the blades of the downstream annular row is inscribed in an outer casing of the downstream annular row.
- the external envelope of the upstream annular row can surround the external envelope of the downstream annular row when these are projected in a common projection plane which is normal to the longitudinal axis.

- the circle defined by the projection of the external envelope of the upstream annular row in a plane normal to the longitudinal axis may have a diameter which represents the external diameter of the aeronautical thruster.
- a projection in a plane normal to the longitudinal axis of the outer casing of the downstream annular row can define a circle whose center is offset from the longitudinal axis in the direction of the axis passing through the angular positions at 3 a.m. and 9 a.m.
- the geometric center of the projection of the outer envelope of the downstream annular row (the center of the circle if the projection of the outer envelope defines a circle) can be offset from the longitudinal axis in the direction of the axis passing through the angular positions at 3 o'clock and at 9 o'clock.
- the radial distance between the center of the circle defined by the projection of the external envelope of the downstream annular row and the longitudinal axis can be between 1/200th and 1/5th of the diameter of the circle defined by the projection of the envelope outside of the upstream annular row.
- a projection in a plane normal to the longitudinal axis of the outer casing of the downstream annular row can define a bean shape or an oval shape.
- the hub may have, at the downstream annular row, a section normal to the longitudinal axis having the shape of a circle centered on the longitudinal axis.
- the hub may have an opening disposed, in whole or in part, longitudinally between the upstream annular row and the downstream annular row.

- the downstream annular row may comprise at least one group of blades having the same radially outer radius, including at least a first group comprising a plurality of first blades and/or a second group comprising a plurality of second blades.
- the downstream annular row can comprise k group(s) of blades with k an integer greater than or equal to 1. The number of different blades to be manufactured is thus limited, making it possible to reduce the costs associated with the manufacture of such an aeronautical thruster.
- the blades of said at least one group of blades can be arranged circumferentially contiguously in an angular sector around the longitudinal axis.
- the blades of each group of blades can all be consecutive two by two in said angular sector around the longitudinal axis. The manufacturing costs of the aeronautical propellant are further reduced.

- the blades of the downstream annular row positioned angularly around the longitudinal axis, respectively, at opposite angles with respect to the position at 12 o'clock may have the same radial dimension.
- the downstream annular row can comprise between 2 and 25 blades.
- the number of blades of the upstream annular row may be different from the number of blades of the downstream annular row. This makes it possible to further minimize the level of noise emitted by the aeronautical thruster.
- the strength of the downstream annular row defined as the ratio between the chord, and the spacing between two circumferentially consecutive blades in the circumferential direction, can be less than 3 over the entire radial dimension of each blade. .

- Figure 16 represents a schematic view of any aeronautical propellant according to the present description.
- Figure 4 shows, in section, a turbomachine 10 of longitudinal axis X which comprises, from upstream to downstream inside the casing engine, one (or more) compressor(s) 2, one (or more) combustion chamber(s) 4, one (or more) turbine(s) 6 and one (or more) exhaust nozzle(s) 8 .
- the turbomachine 10 comprises a hub 12 and two annular rows of unducted blades 18 including an upstream annular row 14, and a downstream annular row 16.
- the upstream annular row 14 and the downstream annular row 16 are spaced apart the other along the longitudinal axis X.
- the upstream annular row 14 is rotatable around the longitudinal axis X and the downstream annular row 16 is fixed around the longitudinal axis X.
- the downstream annular row 16 is not driven in rotation about the longitudinal axis X. This does not exclude that each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 can be variable pitched as will be seen later.
- the downstream annular row 16 can be rotatable around the longitudinal axis X.
- the upstream annular row 14 is of the rotor type and the annular row here is of the stator.
- the direction of rotation of the upstream annular row is not decisive here.
- the upstream annular row can be rotated clockwise or anti-clockwise seen from upstream for example.
- the upstream annular row 14 of unducted blades is driven in rotation around the longitudinal axis X by the turbine(s) 6 which drives(s) itself (s) the (or) compressor (s) 2.
- a speed reduction box or "gearbox" in English
- the turbomachine can have a thrust of between 1,000 and 90,000 pounds, preferably between 2,500 and 50,000 pounds in the cruising phase or in the take-off phase.
- the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 and/or of the downstream annular row 16 can be variable pitched. It is thus possible to adapt the pitch of the blades 18 of the turbine engine 10 according to the operating point of the turbine engine 10 or the phase of flight.
- a system for changing the pitch integrated into the hub can be provided in order to adapt the incidence of the blades for each phase of flight.
- Each blade can thus be adjusted in rotation around a respective pitch change axis according to the flight phases and conditions.
- the pitch change axis of each of the blades is an axis extending radially and positioned longitudinally at a middle portion of the respective blade.
- the pitch change axis of each of the blades 18 of the downstream annular row 16 visible in FIG. 4 coincides with an axis passing through angular positions at 3 o'clock and at 9 o'clock around the longitudinal axis of the downstream annular row.
- the orientation qualifiers such as “longitudinal”, “radial” or “circumferential”, are defined with reference to the longitudinal axis X of the turbomachine 10.
- the longitudinal direction here corresponds to the direction of advancement the turbomachine.
- the longitudinal direction can coincide with a horizontal direction, ie perpendicular to the gravity field.
- the qualifiers “upstream” and “downstream” are defined relative to each other with reference to the flow of gases in the turbomachine 10 in the longitudinal direction.
- the angular position of each of the blades 18 around the longitudinal axis X is marked with respect to a time dial (here seen from upstream for example) whose angular positions at 12 o'clock, 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock are positioned in a conventional manner .
- the angular position at 12 o'clock is therefore positioned vertically upwards with respect to the longitudinal axis X and the angular position at 6 o'clock is positioned vertically downwards with respect to the longitudinal axis X.
- the angular position at 3 o'clock is positioned horizontally towards the right with respect to the longitudinal axis X and the angular position at 6 o'clock is positioned horizontally to the left with respect to the longitudinal axis X.
- An axis extending radially passing through the angular positions at 12 o'clock and at 6 o'clock is thus perpendicular to an axis extending radially through the angular positions at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock.
- a roll movement of the aircraft in flight on which the turbomachine 10 is mounted will be such as to cause a rotation of the vertical and horizontal directions as considered in the figures around the longitudinal axis X
- a rolling movement of the aircraft in flight on which the turbomachine 10 is mounted will be such as to cause a rotation of the axis passing through the angular positions at 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock and of the axis passing through the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock angular positions around the longitudinal axis X.
- a “lateral zone” of the turbine engine 10 refers to a zone which is circumferentially in the vicinity of the 3 o'clock angular position or the 9 o'clock angular position.
- an “upper zone” and a “lower zone” of the turbomachine 10 refer, respectively, to a zone which is circumferentially close to the angular position at 12 o'clock and to a zone which is circumferentially close to the angular position at 6 a.m.
- Each blade 18 of the upstream annular row 14 and of the downstream annular row 16 extends in a radial direction from the hub 12 so as to define a radial dimension between said hub 12 and a radially outer end of the blade 18 respectively.
- the radial dimension of each blade 18 is measured between a radially inner end of the blade 18 and a radially outer end of the blade 18, opposite one another.
- the radially internal end of each blade 18 is located at the level of the hub 12 of the turbomachine 10.
- Each blade 18 can in particular be fixed to the hub 12 of the turbomachine 10 at the radially internal end, at the level of the axis of change setting
- the radially outer end of each blade 18 is here a free end (ie not shrouded).
- each blade 18 of the upstream annular row 14 and of the downstream annular row 16 has a radially internal radius respectively Ri1, Ri2 considered as the radial distance to the longitudinal axis X of the radially internal end of the blade 18, for example located at the level of (that is to say closest to) the hub of the turbomachine.
- the radially inner end is, in Figure 4, close to the pitch change axis of the respective blade.
- the radially inner end of each blade can alternatively be close to the leading edge at the root of the blade.
- Each blade also has a radially outer radius Re considered as the radial distance to the longitudinal axis X from the radially outer end of said blade 18, that is to say, as the maximum radius of the blade.
- FIG. 5 which shows the turbomachine of Figure 4 in section plane IV-IV normal to the longitudinal axis X
- a radially outer end of the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 and the row downstream annular 16 are inscribed, respectively, in an outer envelope 20 of the upstream annular row 14 and an outer envelope 22 of the downstream annular row 16.
- the projection, in the section plane IV-IV, of the outer envelope 20 of the upstream annular row 14 forms a circle of radius Re1, or else of diameter D, centered on the longitudinal axis X.
- the diameter D of the projection, in the section plane IV-IV, of the outer envelope 20 of the upstream annular row 14 may represent the outer diameter of the turbomachine 10.
- each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 is less than the radial dimension of each of the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14.
- the radially outer radius of each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 is less than the radially outer radius of each of the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14.
- Each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 therefore has a truncation with respect to the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 so as to limit the impact of the vortices formed at the radially outer end of the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14.
- each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 is truncated with respect to the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14.
- FIG. 5 represents a first embodiment of the downstream annular row 16 in which a first blade 18a and a second blade 18b can be defined with the first blade 18a positioned angularly around the longitudinal axis X closer to the angular position at 12 o'clock or at 6 o'clock than is the second blade 18b and with the second blade 18b positioned, angularly around the longitudinal axis X, closer to the angular position at 3 o'clock or at 9 o'clock, so that the radial dimension of the first blade 18a is greater than the radial dimension of the second blade 18b.
- the first blade 18a and the second blade 18b considered can be circumferentially consecutive.
- the second blade 18b of the downstream annular row 16 has a greater truncation than the first blade 18a and the third 18c to further reduce the interaction of the vortices formed at the radially outer end of the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 on the second blade 18b of the downstream annular row
- the blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 having the minimum radial dimension is located, angularly around the longitudinal axis X, at (or close to) the angular position at 3H, and at (or at proximity to) the angular position at 9 o'clock.
- This proves to be advantageous in that it has been found that in flight conditions at incidence and/or with crosswind, the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 present, due to their curved shape, the direction of rotation and the incidence of the flow, a greater load when they are located, angularly around the longitudinal axis X, in the vicinity of the angular position at 3 o'clock or the angular position at 9 o'clock.
- the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14 form larger vortices in the downstream wake when they are located, angularly around the longitudinal axis X, in the vicinity of the angular position at 3H or respectively from the angular position at 9 o'clock. Consequently, the blades 18 of the downstream annular row 16 located, angularly around the longitudinal axis X, in the vicinity of the angular position at 3 o'clock, or respectively the angular position at 9 o'clock, are more subject to impacts with vortices 19 formed by the blades 18 of the upstream annular row 14.
- the configuration of the downstream annular row 16 as described above proves advantageous in that it makes it possible to limit, or even prevent, the impact of these larger vortices on the blades 18 of the downstream annular row 16 located, angularly around the longitudinal axis X, in the vicinity of the angular position at 3 o'clock and the angular position at 9 o'clock.
- the cabin of the aircraft on which the turbine engine is mounted is conventionally opposite a zone at the level of the 3 o'clock angular position or the 9 o'clock angular position of the turbine engine 10.
- the solution makes it possible to increase the radial dimension of the blades 18 of the downstream annular row located angularly around the longitudinal axis in the vicinity of the angular position at 12 o'clock and/or the angular position at 6 o'clock with respect to the solution of "clipping" known from the state of the art, thus increasing the performance of the turbomachine 10 without increasing, or even reducing, the sound level emitted by the turbomachine 10.
- the first embodiment of Figure 5 is such that for any first blade 18a positioned angularly around the longitudinal axis X in an angular zone Z1, Z2 between the angular position at 12 o'clock and the angular position at 6 o'clock, there is a second blade 18b positioned angularly around the longitudinal axis X in the same angular zone Z1, Z2 as the first blade 18a, between the first blade 18a and a first plane P1 comprising the longitudinal axis X and l axis passing through the angular position at 3 o'clock and the angular position at 9 o'clock, so that the radial dimension of the first blade 18a is greater than the radial dimension of the second blade 18b.
- the first blade 18a is located, angularly around the longitudinal axis X, either in a first angular zone Z1 between the angular position at 12 o'clock and the angular position at 6 o'clock including the angular position at 3 o'clock. , or in a second angular zone Z2 between the 12 o'clock angular position and the 6 o'clock angular position including the 9 o'clock angular position.
- the second blade 18b is then included in the same angular zone Z1, Z2 as the first blade 18a, respectively, either between the first blade 18a and the angular position at 3H if the first blade is in the first angular zone Z1, or between the first blade 18a and the angular position at 9 o'clock if the first blade is in the second angular zone Z2.
- the first angular zone Z1 and the second angular zone Z2 each correspond to one half of the time dial defined around the longitudinal axis X, each half being between the angular position at 12 o'clock and the angular position at 6 o'clock.
- the first angular zone Z1 therefore comprises the angular position at 3 o'clock and the second angular zone Z2 therefore comprises the angular position at 9 o'clock.
- a third blade 18c can be defined angularly positioned around the longitudinal axis X in the same angular zone Z1, Z2 as the first blade 18a so that the second blade 18b is circumferentially between the first blade 18a and the third blade 18c.

However, it is not excluded that other combinations of the first blade 18a, of the second blade 18b and of the third blade 18c in accordance with the provisions described above are possible.
- each blade 18 of the downstream annular row 16 has, in the example shown, the same radially internal radius Ri2. This is due to the fact that the hub 12 is axisymmetric about the longitudinal axis X at the level of the downstream annular row 16. In other words, the hub 12 has, at the level of the downstream annular row 16, a section normal to the longitudinal axis X which has the shape of a circle centered on the longitudinal axis X.
- the first blade 18a previously considered of the downstream annular row 16 has a radial dimension greater than the second blade 18b previously considered in that the radially external radius of the first blade 18a is greater than the radially outer radius of the second blade 18b.
