Abstract

A ducted fan gas turbine engine comprises a pair of turbines in flow series which are contra-rotating and which drive shafts which in turn drive into an epicyclic gear. The output from the epicyclic gear drives a fan which normally provides forward thrust from the engine. The fan can be made to rotate in the opposite direction to provide reverse thrust by varying the relative speeds of rotation of the two turbines by bleeding working fluid from between them.
