The present invention relates to a powerplant of an aircraft including at least one twin-spool gas generator of longitudinal axis (XX), at least one main fan arranged upstream of the gas generator on the longitudinal axis (XX) and driven in rotation by the gas generator, the main fan being shrouded with a main fan housing; and at least one auxiliary fan with axis (XY, XY') offset relative to the longitudinal axis (XX) and driven by the gas generator, the auxiliary fan being shrouded with an auxiliary fan housing, the gas generator including at least one low-pressure compressor and a low-pressure turbine connected by a low-pressure shaft, the low-pressure turbine driving in rotation the main fan and the auxiliary fan via at least one power transmission system including a differential gear system incorporating a bevel gear.

Aircraft propulsion assembly equipped with a main fan and with a least one offset fan

An aircraft propulsion assembly comprising at least a main turbine mounted along a longitudinal axis, at least one main fan arranged upstream of the main turbine along the longitudinal axis and driven in rotation by the said main turbine, the said main fan being ducted by a main fan casing, an auxiliary turbine mounted along the longitudinal axis, the auxiliary turbine being independent of the main turbine, an auxiliary fan of axis offset with respect to the longitudinal axis and driven by the auxiliary turbine, the auxiliary fan being ducted by an auxiliary fan casing, the main casing being separate and distinct from the auxiliary casing so as respectively to generate a main secondary flow and an auxiliary secondary flow which remain independent of one another until they are discharged into the atmosphere.
