Patent
Turbofan engine with variable area fan nozzle and low spool generator for emergency power generation and method for providing emergency power.
Michael Winter,Charles E. Lents +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a turbofan emergency power system includes a controller that communicates with the flow control device to reduce the effective nozzle exit area (40) of the bypass flow path, which chokes the flow through the bypassflow path thereby increasing the rotational speed of the fan.
Patent
Combination engines for aircraft
TL;DR: In this paper, an engine combination for generating forces with a gas turbine engine generating force, and an internal combustion engine provided in the combination as an intermittent combustion engine generating forces having an air intake, there being an air transfer duct connected from a compressor in the G&T engine to the air intake to transfer compressed air thereto.
Patent
Aircraft combination engines inlet airflow control system
TL;DR: In this article, a power generation system for propelling, and generating electrical power in an aircraft, having a gas turbine engine in an engine compartment in the aircraft with an air inlet in aircraft that is curved along its extent in leading to an air compressor in the GAs having a compressor air transfer duct extending therefrom to an internal combustion engine provided as an intermittent combustion engine at an air intake thereof.

Proceedings ArticleDOI
Anatomy of a 20 MW Electrified Aircraft: Metrics and Technology Drivers
Parag Kshirsagar,Jeffrey Ewanchuk,Bart Antonie van Hassel,Russell Taylor,Suman Dwari,Jonathan M. Rheaume,Charles E. Lents +6 more
TL;DR: Major technologies and design trades for various components and system architectures are presented to provide guidelines and framework to address this grand challenge of electric drivetrain (EDT) designs that would significantly improve fuel burn reduction, design flexibility, and operational improvements in next generation of aircrafts.
