Abstract: A turbine exhaust case employed in an industrial gas turbine engine includes a frame, a fairing and a heat shield. The frame includes an outer ring, an inner ring, and struts connected between the outer ring and the inner ring. The fairing includes a fairing outer ring, a fairing inner ring, and fairing struts connected between the fairing outer ring and the fairing inner ring. The heat shield is located between the frame outer ring and the fairing outer ring and provides a thermal barrier between the fairing outer ring and the frame outer ring, wherein the heat shield includes an aft portion having a flange that interfaces with the frame outer ring to form an air dam that directs cooling airflow forward along the frame outer ring within an outer diameter cavity formed between the frame outer ring and the heat shield.

Abstract: A method of mixing airflow within an inner diameter (ID) mixing chamber of a turbine exhaust case (TEC) includes directing pressurized airflow into the ID mixing chamber. Cooling airflow is directed radially inward via a tube and is then expelled into the ID mixing chamber in a circumferential direction for mixing with the pressurized airflow.

Abstract: A structural case assembly comprises a frame, fairing and heat shield. The frame is fabricated from a material having a temperature limit below an operating point of a gas turbine engine, and comprises an outer ring, an inner ring and a plurality of struts extending therebetween to define a flow path. The fairing is fabricated from a material having a temperature limit above the operating point of the gas turbine engine, and comprises a ring-strut-ring structure that lines the flow path. The heat shield is disposed between the frame and the fairing to inhibit radiant heat transfer therebetween. The heat shield may block all line-of-sight between the fairing and the frame. The frame may be produced from CA-6NM alloy. A method for designing a turbine case structure includes selecting a frame material having a temperature limit below the operating point of an engine.

Abstract: Cooling a turbine exhaust case (TEC) employed in an industrial gas turbine engine includes supplying cooling airflow from an outer diameter (OD) to an inner diameter (ID) cavity, supplying a secondary airflow having a pressure greater than the pressure of the cooling airflow to the ID cavity for mixing with the cooling airflow to provide a mixed airflow, and directing the mixed airflow in a serpentine cooling path that includes first directing the mixed airflow radially outward via hollow struts to an OD cavity, then radially inward via hollow fairings that surround the hollow struts.

Abstract: An air seal for a gas turbine engine platform comprises a flow path platform, a seal retention ring, a finger seal. The seal retention ring is situated radially adjacent the flow path platform. The finger seal is retained by the seal retention ring between the flow path platform and the seal retention ring. The finger seal comprises a first ply with first keyhole slots, a second ply with second keyhole slots circumferentially offset relative to the first keyhole slots, and a foil layer. The foil layer is disposed between the first and second plies. The finger seal has a series of cooling holes in the outer circumferential segment to cool the outer diameter of the seal. In addition, leakage between the finger seal and the flow path platform cools the inner diameter of the seal.
