Patent ID: 11313326

Abstract:
The invention relates to a jet engine with a fixed housing in which a primary flow is formed in which incoming air is burned in at least one combustion chamber, in said housing a secondary flow being formed in which incoming air is accelerated by a fan and, said secondary flow being expelled at the outlet cone of the housing together with the exhaust gas from the combustion chamber, said fan being mounted on a main shaft rotatably about an axis and having a plurality of substantially radially-extending fan blades. According to the invention, it is proposed that at least one fan blade or a plurality of the fan blades or all fan blades have at least one air inlet channel for the primary flow which directs the air of the primary flow through the fan blade to the combustion chamber, and that at least one fan blade or a plurality of the fan blades or all fan blades each have an outlet channel with an at least partially axially- and at least partially tangentially-oriented outlet opening in order to supply the exhaust gas of the combustion chambers to the accelerated air of the secondary flow, said air-exhaust gas mixture emerging at the outlet cone of the jet engine housing, producing the thrust.
