A supersonic two spool turbojet engine capable not only of developing sufficient power to accelerate up to supersonic cruise and maintain efficient operation at supersonic cruise, but also arranged to cruise at subsonic velocities with a relatively low specific fuel consumption. The engine is provided with a variable bypass passageway downstream of the compressor. Flow into the bypass passageway is controlled so that during low power setting the bypass passageway is closed so that all the gaseous flow is directed through the turbine. During higher power settings, the bypass passageway is opened to the extent that a selected portion of the gaseous flow is directed through the bypass passageway to bypass the first stage of the turbine section so that the corrected flow to the first turbine stage remains substantially constant for high and low power setting of the engine. The bypass flow is then directed into the area between the first and second turbine to combine with the gaseous flow passing through the first turbine and pass through the second turbine.

In a supersonic jet engine adapted to cruise at supersonic speeds at a relatively high efficiency, to operate with high turbine inlet temperatures for high power operation, and to cruise subsonically with a relatively low specific fuel consumption, said engine comprising: a. a housing structure having an upstream inlet end to receive intake air, and a downstream exhaust end to discharge jet exhaust, b. an air inlet arranged to receive intake air at subsonic velocity and also to receive intake air at surpersonic velocities and reduce said air to subsonic velocity, c. a compressor mounted in said housing rearwardly of said inlet and arranged to compress air flowing into said inlet, said compressor having a first compressor section and a second compressor section, each having an inlet end and an outlet end arranged to operate between a maximum compression ratio and a minimum compression ratio, d. means defining a combustion chamber mounted in said housing downstream of said compressor to receive compressed air therefrom, e. fuel injection and ignition means in said combustion chamber arranged to burn fuel in airflow from the compressor and provide a gaseous flow from said combustion chamber, f. a turbine mounted in said housing rearwardly of said combustion chamber and arranged to receive said gaseous flow from the combustion chamber, said turbine having a first stage operatively connected to the compressor second section, and a second stage operatively connected to the compressor first section adapted to receive gaseous flow from said first stage, each of said first and second turbine stage having a predetermined cross-sectional nozzle area through which said gaseous flow passes to pass rearwardly through a primary exhaust passageway, g. an exhaust nozzle to receive gaseous flow from said turbine and exhaust said flow to produce a thrust, h. turbine bypass means to receive flow from a location downstream of said compressor as bypass flow, to direct said bypass flow along a path bypassing said turbine first stage and exhaust said bypass flow to pass through said turbine second stage, i. bypass valve means to control the amount of flow bypassed through said turbine bypass means, j. engine control means operatively connected to said fuel injection and ignition means and to said bypass valve means, in a manner to control the amount of fuel directed to said fuel injection and ignition means and to control said bypass valve means in a manner to control the amount of bypass flow through said turbine bypass means, a method of operating said jet engine, said method comprising: controlling the amount of fuel directed to said fuel injection and ignition means and controlling said bypass valve means in a manner to control the amount of bypass flow through said turbine bypass means so that said bypass valve means is at a more open position at higher engine thrust settings where higher temperatures are created in said combustion chamber, and at a more closed position at lower engine thrust settings where lower temperatures are created in said combustion chamber, in a manner that there is substantially constant corrected gaseous flow into said turbine, and said bypass flow is directed through said turbine second stage, said corrected flow being measured according to the formula: [Figure] where: W=Total Mass Flow Rate in lbs. per second qt=Observed temperature (absolute) divided by standard temperature (518.67°R) dt=Observed pressure divided by standard pressure (2116.22 lbs./sq. ft.) whereby during subsonic cruise said engine can operate at a relatively low specific fuel consumption with high compression ratio and low combustion exit temperature, in a condition where said valve bypass means is at a substantially closed position, during high power acceleration mode, said engine can operate at high combustion exit temperatures in a condition where said valve bypass means is in a more open position to maintain constant corrected flow through said turbine to satisfy the turbine requirements, and during supersonic cruise mode the engine can operate efficiently at relatively high combustion exit temperatures.
