Zusammenfassung:A gas turbine engine includes, among other things, a propulsor section including a propulsor, a core engine, a gear arrangement that drives the propulsor. A compressor section includes a low pressure compressor and a high pressure compressor. A turbine section includes a high pressure turbine and a low pressure turbine. An overall pressure ratio is provided by the combination of a pressure ratio across the low pressure compressor and a pressure ratio across the high pressure compressor, and greater than 40. The pressure ratio across the high pressure compressor is between 7 and 15, and the pressure ratio across the low pressure compressor is between 4 and 8.
