Abstract: A method of assembling a mid-turbine frame includes engaging at least two tabs in a radially inner end of at least one spoke in a groove in an inner frame case. The at least one spoke is secured to the inner frame case with a central bolt extending through the inner frame case into the at least one spoke.

Abstract: A vane has an airfoil extending between a radially outer platform and a radially inner platform. At least one of the platforms has nominally radially thinner portions, and a pad defining a radially thicker portion. The pad has a radial thickness that is greater than a thickness of the nominal radially thinner portions. The pad surrounds an outer periphery of the airfoil on a side of the radially outer platform. The pad has a varying radial thickness. A mid-turbine frame and a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of cooling a portion of a gas turbine engine includes positioning a tie rod relative to an inner frame case. The tie rod includes a bushing opening and the inner frame case includes a fastener opening. A fastener is secured through the fastener opening in the inner frame case to a threaded bushing located in the bushing opening. The threaded bushing includes a distal end that forms a clearance gap with the inner frame case. Heat is transferred from the fastener through the threaded bushing to prevent the fastener from creeping.

Abstract: A diffuser case support structure for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The diffuser case support structure includes a fairing disposed circumferentially about a longitudinal axis. The fairing forms at least a portion of a fluid path between a compressor and a combustor of the gas turbine engine. The fairing defines a plurality of apertures extending through the fairing. At least one spoke extends through at least one respective aperture of the plurality of apertures. The at least one spoke is configured to couple an inner diffuser case and an outer diffuser case of the gas turbine engine.

Abstract: A mid-turbine frame (MTF) system for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The MTF includes an inner case, an outer case and a fairing sandwiched between the inner and outer cases. The fairing includes an inner ring spaced apart from and coupled to an outer ring by a plurality of hollow struts. The hollow struts accommodate support rods that connect the inner case to the outer case. Further, the hollow struts act as turning vanes for turning the flow of gases passing from a high pressure turbine (HPT) to a low pressure turbine (LPT) for purposes of providing the correct incidence angle to the first vane of the LPT. The outer ring of the fairing includes a plurality of bosses which receive attachment pins that pass through the outer case for correctly locating the fairing with respect to the outer case and for permitting radial expansion in contraction of the fairing.

Abstract: A turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustor section in fluid communication with the compressor section, a high pressure turbine in fluid communication with the combustor, a low pressure turbine in fluid communication with the high pressure turbine, and a mid turbine frame located axially between the high pressure turbine and the low pressure turbine. The mid turbine frame includes an outer frame case, an inner frame case, and a plurality of hollow spokes that distribute loads from the inner frame case to the outer frame case. The spokes are hollow to allow cooling airflow to be supplied through the spokes to the inner frame case.
