Abstract

A method for assembling a gas turbine engine assembly includes providing a core gas turbine engine including a high-pressure compressor, a combustor, and a high-pressure turbine, and coupling a low-pressure compressor between the core gas turbine engine and a motor such that the low-pressure compressor is driven only by the motor.
