SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TEMPORARY AUGMENTING POWER FROM A PRIMARY POWER PLANT

An aircraft propulsion system (1300) includes a fan (602), a primary powerplant (606), an augmenting powerplant (608) and a controller (610). The primary powerplant (606) is coupled to the fan (602) and configured to rotate the fan (602) during a first flight stage and during a second flight stage....

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An aircraft propulsion system (1300) includes a fan (602), a primary powerplant (606), an augmenting powerplant (608) and a controller (610). The primary powerplant (606) is coupled to the fan (602) and configured to rotate the fan (602) during a first flight stage and during a second flight stage. The augmenting powerplant (608) is coupleable with the fan (602). The controller (610) is configured to cause the augmenting powerplant (608) to drive the fan (602) during the first flight stage, and to cause the augmenting powerplant (608) to cease driving the fan (602) based on an indication of a transition from the first flight stage to the second flight stage.
