Anti-icing core inlet stator assembly for a gas turbine engine

A gas turbine engine is defined wherein the inlet guide vanes leading into a core engine flow path are sized and positioned such that flow paths positioned circumferentially intermediate the vane are sufficiently large that a hydraulic diameter of greater than or equal to about 1.5 is achieved. This...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A gas turbine engine is defined wherein the inlet guide vanes leading into a core engine flow path are sized and positioned such that flow paths positioned circumferentially intermediate the vane are sufficiently large that a hydraulic diameter of greater than or equal to about 1.5 is achieved. This will likely reduce the detrimental effect of icing.
