The invention gives a process for the control of the amount of cooling air of a gas turbine set (1, 2, 3). Suitable means (32, 33) are provided in the cooling system (26, 27) to enable the amount of cooling air to be varied. The control of this means takes place in dependence on an operating paramet
The invention gives a process for the control of the amount of cooling air of a gas turbine set (1, 2, 3). Suitable means (32, 33) are provided in the cooling system (26, 27) to enable the amount of cooling air to be varied. The control of this means takes place in dependence on an operating parameter (X). This is determined in a computer unit (22) by suitable combination of measured machine data (p1, p2).

The invention gives a process for the control of the amount of cooling air of a gas turbine set (1, 2, 3). Suitable means (32, 33) are provided in the cooling system (26, 27) to enable the amount of cooling air to be varied. The control of this means takes place in dependence on an operating parameter (X). This is determined in a computer unit (22) by suitable combination of measured machine data (p1, p2). g and ram effect, no afterburner or thrust augmentation of any kind is employed, comprising of: a complete low bypass turbofan including secondary fan unit and engine core comprising; compressor, combustion chambers, turbines and secondary bypass duct; a larger diameter main fan unit drivingly connected to said turbofan via a short drive shaft or shafts; said main fan is 2.5 to 3.5 times greater in frontal area than said secondary fan; a reversed front inner variable area nozzle; said front inner nozzle is connected to the forward end of said secondary fan by a short in line inlet tube; said front inner nozzle is constructed of six main hinged plates, with hinges attaching to a forward mounted sliding tube at the rear, and hinges connecting six secondary hinged plates to the fore, six main interleaved sliding plates and six secondary interleaved sliding plates; said forward mounted sliding tube fits inside said inlet tube; an expanding seal fitted between said main and secondary sliding plates; a fixing area provided at the leading edge of said secondary hinged plates; said front inner nozzle is fully sealed; a rear inner variable area nozzle facing rearwards in line, situated at the back of said core; said rear inner nozzle is connected to the rearward end of said secondary bypass duct; said rear inner nozzle is constructed of six main hinged plates, with hinges attaching to a rear mounted sliding tube at the fore, and hinges connecting six secondary hinged plates to the rear, six main interleaved sliding plates and six secondary interleaved sliding plates; said rear mounted sliding tube fits outside said secondary bypass duct; an expanding seal fitted between said main and secondary sliding plates; a fixing area provided at the trailing edge of said secondary hinged plates; said rear inner nozzle is fully sealed; a variable diameter cylinder enclosing said front inner nozzle, inlet tube, secondary fan, core, secondary bypass duct and rear inner nozzle; said cylinder is constructed of six main plates and six interleaved sliding plates; fixing areas provided at the front and rear of said cylinder; said front inner nozzle is attached to the forward end of said cylinder using said fixing areas provided, said rear inner nozzle is attached to the rearward end of said cylinder using fixing areas provided; fully sealed attachment joints; said cylinder front edge overlaps said front inner nozzle forming a flow splitter; an engine outer casing extending backwards from the outer diameter of said main fan and completely enclosing said cylinder within; said casing provides the main variable area bypass duct between said cylinder and said casing; said splitter provides a smooth and aerodynamic airflow with said cylinder in any position; said front inner nozzle forms a ram into said secondary fan when said nozzle is opened; said nozzle and cylinder totally shut off said main bypass when fully open, providing fully supercharged low bypass turbofan mode at subsonic speeds, and providing ramjet mode at supersonic speeds; said main fan freewheels at supersonic speeds, allowing the airflow to pass straight through into said ram; said ram provides said secondary fan with a subsonic airflow at all speeds; said nozzle and cylinder totally shut off the supercharging when fully closed, providing high bypass turbofan engine mode; a set of two-stage combustion chambers, to provide extra fuel in said supercharged mode, fitted within said engine core; a third main variable area nozzle positioned aft of said casing, facing rearwards. 2. A variable bypass jet engine as claimed in claim 1 wherein there is fitted an intercooling device interposed between said main and secondary fans, fitted in or around said inlet tube, to cool down the incoming air charge. 3. A variable bypass jet engine as claimed in claim 1 wherein said engine casing is an integral part of the airframe. 4. A variable bypass jet engine as claimed in cl aim 1 wherein said secondary bypass duct is of a fixed ratio and is tuned by the engine designer between a minimum bypass ratio of zero and a maximum of 1.0, for Mach number required. ide bars each include a proximal and a distal end. The center bar is associated with each of the first and second side bars toward the proximal ends thereof. The base is associated with each of the first and second side bars at a second end and the center bar at a first end. The center bar is structurally configured to provide both torsional and longitudinal flexibility, to, in turn, permit the first and second side bars to move independently of each other.
