ABSTRACT:
There is a core engine having a turbine section which is drivingly connected to a single propeller through a planetary transmission. The core engine provides a substantially continuous, axially aligned gaseous flow path from the inlet to the discharge nozzle, with the planetary drive being spaced radially from the flow path. In one configuration, the planetary transmission is spaced circumferentially around the flow path, while in another configuration, it is positioned inside of the annular flow path. The engine is ranged in both a tractor and a pusher configuration.
