Abstract:

A gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a fan section, and a compressor section including a low pressure compressor and a second compressor section, and a turbine section including a fan drive turbine and a high pressure turbine. The fan drive turbine drives the low pressure compressor and a gear arrangement to drive the fan section. A core split power ratio is provided by power input to the high pressure compressor divided by a power input to the low pressure compressor measured in horsepower.
