Abstract

1310910 Gas turbine ducted fan engines GENERAL ELECTRIC CO 13 April 1970 [18 April 1969] 17376/70 Heading F1J A gas turbine ducted fan engine comprises a propulsive nozzle from which the air stream is discharged to provide propulsive thrust there being means for generating a gas stream in which the speed of propagation of sound energy is substantially higher than it is in the fan air stream and means for discharging the gas stream adjacent or from at least the lower portions of the nozzle so as to form a gaseous shroud for the air stream whereby sound energy within the air stream is limited as to its angle of propagation from the nozzle. The engine shown in Fig. 2, comprises a ducted fan having blades 12, part of the air from the fan passing to the core engine and part passing through the passage 26 defined between the inner and outer casings 18, 16 and discharging through the annular nozzle 28. The outer casing 16 is shaped to define an annular discharge nozzle 30 through which a stream of gaseous fluid from a generator indicated at 32 is discharged in the form of an annular gaseous shroud around the air stream discharging from the propulsion nozzle 28. The angle of noise level propagation is thus limited as shown so that less noise passes to a point beneath the engine. In Fig. 4 the outer fan casing 44 is short and the gaseous shroud is formed by combustion gases generated in a chamber 58 and discharged through annular nozzle 56. Part of the air from the fan duct passes through opening 52 to the combustion chamber 58. In a further embodiment water is passed through a coil disposed around the combustion equipment of the core engine and the steam generated therein is discharged through a nozzle 56 so as to form a gaseous shroud around the fan air discharge. The gaseous shroud may be formed only at the lower side of the fan air discharge.
