Abstract

An aircraft assembly includes an engine core, a core case, a nacelle structure, a core compartment, a first electric machine and a first driveshaft. The engine core includes a first rotating structure rotatable about a first axis and that includes a first structure rotor. The core case is radially outboard of and houses the engine core. The nacelle structure is radially outboard of and covers the core case. The core compartment is disposed radially between and is formed by the core case and the nacelle structure. The first electric machine is disposed in the core compartment. The first electric machine includes a first machine rotor and a first machine case. The first machine case houses the first machine rotor. The first machine case is connected to and projects out from a section of the core case. The first drivetrain operatively couples the first machine rotor to the first rotating structure.
