ABSTRACT:
A ducted fan aircraft compound cycle engine comprises a core engine which includes a compressor, three rotary internal combustion engines fed by the compressor and a power turbine to receive the combustion products of the rotary and combustion engines. The rotary internal combustion engines drive the compressor and the power turbine drives the fan. The engine combines the thermal efficiency of the rotary internal combustion engine with the compact size and light weight of the gas turbine engines.
