Abstract: A method of operating a multi-engine aircraft (1, Fig. 1a) having two or more gas turbine engines (10, Fig. 1b) includes operating a first engine in a powered mode to provide motive power to the aircraft (1), and, in flight, operating a second engine in either a powered mode to provide motive power to the aircraft (1) or in a standby mode to provide substantially no motive power to the aircraft (1). When operating the second engine in the powered mode, pressurized air is bled from a first bleed location (19) of a compressor (9) of the second engine. When operating the second engine in the standby mode, pressurized air is bled from a second bleed location (21) of the compressor (9) of the second engine and supplying the pressurized air to a bleed air system of the second engine. The second bleed location (21) is downstream of the first bleed location (19) within the compressor (9) of the second engine.

The rotor housing body (56) extends about an axis (28) to form a rotor cavity (62) of the engine housing (46). The rotor housing body (56) extends between and to a first axial end (58) and a second axial end (60). The side housing assembly (54) includes a side housing body (82), a side plate (84), and a seal assembly (86). The side housing body (82) is disposed at the first axial end (58). The side plate (84) includes an inner side (106), an outer side (108), and a perimeter edge (110) extending from the inner side (106) to the outer side (108). The seal assembly includes a support ring (112) and a spacer (114). The support ring (112) and the spacer (114) extend about the axis (28). The support ring (112) is mounted to the perimeter edge (110) by a braze joint (144). The spacer (114) extends between and to a first axial spacer end (136) and a second axial spacer end.

Abstract: A method of operating a gas turbine engine (10) having a high pressure compressor (42) and a secondary air system (50) includes, when the gas turbine engine (10) is operating in a first power range, providing a first bleed source for the secondary air system (50) by bleeding air from a first bleed location, providing bleed air at a first pressure, proximate to an outlet of the high pressure compressor (42). When the gas turbine engine (10) is operating in a second power range, higher than the first power range, the method includes providing a second bleed source by bleeding air from both a second bleed location and a third bleed location. The second and third bleed locations, respectively providing bleed air at second and third pressures, are both disposed upstream of the first bleed location within the gas turbine engine (10). The second and third pressures are different from the first pressure.

Abstract: During a manufacturing method, a protective coating (112) is applied to a first chamber surface (114) of a first component (102) to provide a coated first chamber surface (114') and to a second chamber surface (116) of a second component (104) to provide a coated second chamber surface (116'). The second component (104) is configured with the first component (102) to provide a pilot chamber structure (68). The pilot chamber structure (68) includes a pilot chamber (74), a pilot aperture (76), a fuel aperture (92) and an ignitor aperture (94). The pilot chamber (74) is formed by the coated first chamber surface (114') and the coated second chamber surface (116') within the pilot chamber structure (68). The pilot aperture (76) projects into the first component (102) from a distal end of the pilot chamber structure (68) to the pilot chamber (74). The fuel aperture (92) projects into the pilot chamber structure (68) to the pilot chamber (74). The ignitor aperture (94) projects into the pilot chamber structure (68) to the pilot chamber (74).
