  • Publication number: 20230094812
    Abstract: The invention relates to an aircraft turbine engine (101) which comprises, downstream of the low pressure compressor of its low pressure body (104) and upstream of its combustion chamber (102), an electric motor (206) which is configured to rotate a rotor blade ring so as to generate a flow of air. Moreover, the rotational speed of the electric machine rotor is independent of the rotational speed of the compressor rotor.

  • Publication number: 20220001998
    Abstract: The invention relates to a propulsion system intended to be mounted on an aircraft comprising a main body, said propulsion system comprising:—a first rotating propulsive member and a second rotating propulsive member that are intended to be mounted on either side of said main body,—a transmission housing connected to the first rotating propulsive member via a first mechanical shaft and to the second rotating propulsive member via a second mechanical shaft,—a single gas generator connected to said transmission housing and configured to rotate the first rotating propulsive member and the second rotating propulsive member, and—a single auxiliary turbomachine configured to rotate the first rotating propulsive member and the second rotating propulsive member independently of the gas generator.

  • Patent number: 10858112
    Abstract: An aircraft turboprop engine has at least a low-pressure body and a high-pressure body. The low-pressure body drives a propeller by a gearbox. The turboprop engine also includes means for supplying air to an air-conditioning circuit of an aircraft cabin, wherein the means for supplying air has at least one compressor of which the rotor is coupled to the low-pressure body. The compressor has an air inlet connected to means for bleeding air from an air inlet duct of the turboprop engine.

  • Patent number: 10329023
    Abstract: An aircraft turboprop engine (310) including at least a low-pressure body (12) and a high-pressure body (14), possibly also an intermediate-pressure body. At least one of the bodies includes a compressor. The low-pressure body drives a first gearbox (16) The turboprop engine also includes at least one load compressor (60) for supplying air to an air-conditioning circuit of an aircraft cabin. A rotor (61) of the load compressor is coupled to the low-pressure body. The load compressor (60) includes an air inlet (62) connected to a conduit (72) to bleed air from the compressor of the turboprop engine when all of the aforementioned bodies include only a single compressor, or from the compressor of the low-pressure body or the compressor of the intermediate-pressure body of the turboprop engine when all of the bodies include at least two compressors.
