Abstract

A turbine engine is provided that includes a first rotating assembly, a bearing, a turbine engine core and a flowpath. The first rotating assembly includes a propulsor rotor, a power turbine rotor and a power turbine shaft coupled with and axially between the propulsor rotor and the power turbine rotor. The bearing rotatably supports the first rotating assembly at an intermediate location along the power turbine shaft. The turbine engine core includes a second rotating assembly and a combustor. The second rotating assembly includes a core compressor rotor and a core turbine rotor. The power turbine rotor is arranged axially between the propulsor rotor and the second rotating assembly. The flowpath extends sequentially across the core compressor rotor, the combustor, the core turbine rotor and the power turbine rotor from an inlet into the flowpath to an exhaust from the flowpath.
