Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a multi-functional turbomachinery which can continue supplying energy to aircraft's equipment even in emergency situations, in which propulsive sources or other power sources have failed. The turbomachinery comprises a common shaft sectioned in parts, the turbomachinery further comprising: a propelling section, a power unit configured to drive the turbomachinery, and a power conversion section drivable by either the propelling section, or by the power unit. Those sections are brought together by first and second coupling means in such a way that when both first and second coupling means couple their respective shaft parts, the turbomachinery acts as a turboprop engine. Further, the present invention provides a small/medium-size aircraft to install such multi-functional turbomachinery and a method for continuing supplying energy to the aircraft.
