Abstract

An aircraft turbine engine has a pair of rotating and non-ducted propellers. An upstream propeller has an outer diameter D1 and a downstream propeller has an outer diameter D2. The engine further includes a system for varying the diameter D2. The downstream propeller includes an annular row of blades, each of which is configured to be mounted telescopically in the radial direction (R) in an outer fan duct.
