摘要:
A gas turbine engine component has an annular flange arm (61), a backing plate mounted to the flange arm (61) and a bypass circuit (72) formed between the flange arm (61) and the backing plate. The bypass circuit (72) includes one or more channels (74, 76) formed in one of the flange arm (61) or the backing plate. When more than one channels are used, at least one connecting slot (80) is provided between the channels (74, 76). At least one inlet passage has an inlet port (84) which extends through the flange arm (61) in fluid communication with the forward-most channel (74), and at least one outlet slot (88) is formed between the flange arm (61) and the backing plate in fluid communication with the aft-most channel (76).

An annular air baffle (60) disposed in a cavity (50) of a rotatable gas turbine engine part includes an annular split ring (70) supporting a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart fins (72). The cavity (50) is closed at a radially outer diameter (52) and open at a radially inner diameter (56) of the part. The ring (70) and the fins (72) may be integrally formed in one piece. The fins (72) may have common surfaces (76) with the ring (70) and the common surfaces (76) may be circular cross-sectional surfaces of the ring (70) and radially outer rounded corners (82) of the fins (72). The fins (72) may have triangular cross-sectional shapes (86) with first, second, and third sides (90, 92, and 94), rounded first radially inner corners (100) between the first and second sides (90 and 92), rounded second radially inner corners (102) between the second and third sides (92 and 94), and the radially outer rounded corners (82) between the first and third sides (90 and 94). The fins (72) may extend radially inwardly from the annular split ring (70).

A gas injector system (20) includes a plenum (22) with a plenum opening (34) in the wall of the plenum (22). An injector (36) is positioned at a location overlying the plenum opening (34). The injector (36) includes an injector block (38) affixed to the exterior surface (26) of the plenum wall (24), a joint (40) between the injector block (38) and the plenum wall (24), and an angularly inclined injector passage (42) extending through the injector block (38) from an injector passage inlet (44) to an injector passage outlet (46). The injector block (38) is preferably brazed to the plenum wall (24) for high-temperature applications, or adhesively joined for low-temperature applications.

A flanged joint connection for connecting together by a bolted connection a pair of casing shells having connecting flanges (60, 74). The connection reduces bearing stress concentrations adjacent fillets (102, 106) provided at the junction of the flange (60, 74) and the casing shell surface (104, 108). A rectilinear edge portion (114, 116) is provided on a bolt head (118) or a spacer (120), or both, to avoid point contact of the bolt head (118) or spacer (120) and the flange face (90, 100) or fillet (120, 106). The rectilinear edge portion (114, 116) includes a convexly-curved surface (122, 124) that faces the fillet (102, 106). The incidence of cracks between a bolt hole (80) and the fillet (102, 106), as well as the incidence of circumferential cracks between adjacent bolt holes (80) is significantly reduced.
摘要:
A method for assembling a gas turbine engine (13) includes coupling an axisymmetric structure within the gas turbine engine, wherein the axisymmetric structure includes at least one mounting bushing (3) extending from a radially outer surface of the axisymmetric structure, and inserting a pin (110) having a crowned surface at least partially into the mounting bushing such that the pin provides both axial and tangential support to the axisymmetric structure, and securing the pin to the gas turbine engine utilizing a retaining assembly (140).
摘要:
The present invention provides a seal (30) for a gas turbine engine, comprising an annular ring with an L-shaped cross-section having a radially extending leg (32) and an axially extending leg. A plurality of corrugations (38) are formed in the axially extending leg (34) so as to make it compliant in the circumferential direction.
