Abstract
The present application relates to an axial turbine engine with a turbine, a low-pressure compressor, and a fan. The turbine drives the compressor and the fan via a plurality of epicyclic reducing gears. The rotor of the compressor includes upstream a disc with a row of vanes and downstream a drum with a plurality of rows of vanes. The disc and the drum are connected to different parts of the epicyclic reducing gears, so as to be counter-rotating. The turbine engine includes a row of stator vanes arranged between two rows of rotor blades of the drum of the compressor, so as to straighten the flow and improve the efficiency. The turbine engine includes at least two epicyclic reducing gears, so that the vane rows of the drum turn faster than that downstream, which itself turns faster than the fan.
