ABSTRACT:
An aircraft mounted gas turbine engine system comprises a three shaft propulsive gas turbine engine having three electrical generators; each one respectively associated with one shaft of the engine. Two of the electrical generators are additionally configured so as to function as electric motors so as to facilitate power transfer between the engine shafts. One of the electric generators provides the primary source of electrical power for the aircraft, while the remaining electrical generators provide electrical power for the engine and back-up power for the aircraft.
