Abstract
A turboshaft engine including a low-pressure compressor, a high-pressure compressor, a low-pressure turbine, a high-pressure turbine, and a regulator for regulating a speed of rotation of the low-pressure turbine to a speed that is substantially constant. The low-pressure turbine is coupled by a first shaft to the high-pressure compressor, while the high-pressure turbine is coupled by a second shaft to the low-pressure compressor.
Claims3
1-2. (canceled)
A turboshaft engine comprising:
- a low-pressure compressor;
- a high-pressure compressor;
- a low-pressure turbine;
- a high-pressure turbine;
- and
- regulator means for regulating a speed of rotation of the low-pressure turbine to a speed that is substantially constant,
- wherein the low-pressure turbine is coupled by a first shaft to the high-pressure compressor, while the high-pressure turbine is coupled by a second shaft to the low-pressure compressor, the first shaft passes coaxially inside the second shaft, the first and second shafts defining an axial direction,
- wherein the high-pressure compressor, the low-pressure compressor, the high-pressure turbine, and the low-pressure turbine are arranged in that order along the axial direction.
