POWER PLANT FOR FLYING VEHICLE Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: aeronautical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: proposed power plant includes bypass engine whose inner loop is provided with compressor and outer loop is flow-through loop; it is made in form of circular passage communicated with inner loop and drive connected with compressor. Compressor is mounted for turn through angle of 80-100 deg. relative to longitudinal axis of engine. Compressor drive is located beyond flow section of engine and may be made in form of gas-turbine engine located beyond bypass engine body. Struts with fairings secured on them may be located in inner loop in front of and behind compressor; these struts are movable along axis of inner loop; provision is also made for rings embracing the struts and mechanisms for motion of struts. Compressor may be located in additional body made in form of swivel part and fixed part arranged inside each other. Both parts of additional body of compressor may be made in form of spherical segments.

EFFECT: increased thrust of power plant due to reduction of internal hydrodynamic resistance of plant.
