  • Patent number: 11629667
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine generates noise during use, and one particularly important flight condition for noise generation is take-off. A gas turbine engine that has high efficiency provides low noise, in particular from the fan and the turbine that drives the fan. Values are defined for a noise parameter NP that results in a gas turbine engine having reduced combined fan and turbine noise.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11181075
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine generates noise during use, and one particularly important flight condition for noise generation is take-off. A gas turbine engine has high efficiency together with low noise, in particular from the bypass flow exiting the engine. The average velocity of the flow at the exit to the bypass duct is in the range of from 200 m/s to 275 m/s at a take-off lateral reference point, defined as the point on a line parallel to and 450 m from the runway centre line where the Effective Perceived Noise Level (EPNL) is a maximum during take-off.

  • Patent number: 11168611
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine generates noise during use, and one particularly important flight condition for noise generation is take-off. A gas turbine engine has high efficiency together with low noise, in particular the noise emanating from the front of the fan. The contribution of the fan noise emanating from the front of the engine to the Effective Perceived Noise Level (EPNL) at a take-off lateral reference point, defined as the point on a line parallel to and 450 m from the runway centre line where the EPNL is a maximum during take-off, is in the range of from 0 EPNdB and 12 EPNdB lower than the contribution of the fan noise emanating from the rear of the engine to the EPNL at the take-off lateral reference point.

  • Patent number: 10815895
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine generates noise during use, and one particularly important flight condition for noise generation is take-off. A gas turbine engine has high efficiency together with low noise, in particular from the turbine that drives the fan. The contribution of the turbine noise emanating from the rear of the engine to the Effective Perceived Noise Level (EPNL) is in the range of from 7 EPNdB and 30 EPNdB lower at a take-off lateral reference point than at an approach reference point.

  • Publication number: 20200263635
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine generates noise during use, and one particularly important flight condition for noise generation is take-off. A gas turbine engine has high efficiency together with low noise, in particular from the fan. The fan tip relative Mach Number at take-off at a take-off lateral reference point, defined as the point on a line parallel to and 450 m from the runway centre line where the EPNL is a maximum during take-off, is below 1.09. This results in low fan noise, along with optionally enabling a reduction in noise attenuation material.

  • Publication number: 20200200089
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine generates noise during use, and one particularly important flight condition for noise generation is take-off. A gas turbine engine is provided that has high efficiency together with low noise, in particular from the jet flow exiting the engine and the turbine. The combined contribution of the jet and the turbine to the Effective Perceived Noise Level (EPNL) at a take-off lateral reference point, defined as the point on a line parallel to and 450 m from the runway centre line where the EPNL is a maximum during take-off, is in the range of from 3 EPNdB and 15 EPNdB lower than the total engine EPNL at the take-off lateral reference point.
