Abstract
A turbine engine is provided that includes a fan section, a nose cone, a compressor inlet, a fan duct, and a particle separation system. The fan section has a plurality of fan blades disposed around a circumference of the fan section. The nose cone is disposed forward of the fan section. The compressor inlet is disposed aft of the fan section. The fan duct is disposed radially outside of the compressor inlet. The particle separation system is configured to produce an electrostatic charge on one or more surfaces forward of or adjacent to the compressor inlet. The electrostatic charge is configured to cause charged particles present within an air flow entering the engine to divert from the compressor inlet and enter the fan duct.
