    Abstract: A thermal system may comprise a reservoir, a first fluid flowpath, and a second fluid flowpath. The first fluid flowpath may start at the reservoir and return to the reservoir. The first fluid flowpath may comprise, in a direction of the fluid flow, a first side of a sub-cooler, a liquid pump, a first side of a pre-heater, and a first side of an evaporator. The second fluid flowpath may start at the reservoir and return to the reservoir. The second fluid flowpath may comprise, in a direction of a fluid flow, a pressure regulator, a vapor compressor, a first side of a condenser, and an expansion value.

    Abstract: Heat shields and methods of cooling a heat shield are provided. A heat shield of a combustor may be cooled. The heat shield comprises a first surface and a second surface, where the first surface is opposite the second surface, and the first surface is configured to face a combustion chamber. The heat shield may be cooled by directing airflow over the heat shield through channels towards an opening of the heat shield and past turbulators located in the channels.

    Abstract: An assembly is disclosed for adjusting the radial position of a blade track relative to a blade of a turbine stage in a gas turbine engine. The assembly comprises a static turbine casing, a blade track carrier, a blade track support assembly, an actuator, and a blade track. The blade track carrier comprises a pair of radially extending flanges each defining at least one bore in radial and axial alignment with each other forming a pair of bores. The blade track support assembly comprises a portion extending through each bore in a pair of bores, and one or more cam-shaped portions rotatable about an axis of rotation. The blade track has an arcuate flange and a support flange, the support flange being carried by the cam-shaped portion of the blade track support assembly such that rotation of the cam-shaped portion effects radial movement of the blade track.

    Abstract: An assembly is disclosed for adjusting the radial position of one or more blade tracks radially encasing the blades of a turbine stage in a gas turbine engine. The assembly comprises a static turbine casing, a plurality of blade track carriers, an annular control ring, an actuator, and a plurality of blade tracks. The blade tracks have a radially inner surface that defines a flowpath boundary of the turbine stage. The blade tracks are carried by the blade track carriers, which are engaged with the annular control ring. Actuation of the actuator moves the control ring in an axial dimension and this movement is translated into an adjustment of the radial position of the blade track.
