    Abstract: A stacked wheel assembly for a rotor of a rotary machine includes a plurality of stacked wheels for rotation about a common axis and forming a portion of the rotor. Also included is a tie bolt passing through aligned bolt holes of the plurality of stacked wheels for retaining the plurality of stacked wheels in axially stacked relation, the tie bolt extending out of a forward end of a forward wheel of the plurality of stacked wheels and out of an aft end of an aft wheel of the plurality of stacked wheels. Further included is a rotor component disposed adjacent the aft end of the aft wheel. Yet further included is a nut mounted within a forward face of the rotor component, the nut configured to be in threaded engagement with the tie bolt to exert a clamping force on the plurality of stacked wheels.

    Abstract: A fastener is provided including a bolt having at least one threaded end, a first sleeve configured to fit over the bolt, and a second sleeve configured to fit over the first sleeve. At least one nut is configured to cooperate with threads in the threaded ends of the bolt. The first and second sleeves are configured to impart an outwardly radial load when the nuts are tightened on the bolt.

    Abstract: A turbine engine for an aircraft. The turbine engine includes a combustor and a steam system. Fuel and steam are injected into the combustor to mix with compressed air to generate a fuel and air mixture. The fuel and air mixture is combusted in the combustor to generate combustion gases. The steam system is fluidly coupled to the combustor as the steam source to provide steam to the combustor. The steam system includes a hot gas path and a steam hot gas path component. The hot gas path is fluidly coupled to the combustor to receive the combustion gases and to route the combustion gases through the steam system. The steam hot gas path component includes a wall having a combustion-gas-facing surface facing the hot gas path and a hydrophobic coating formed on the combustion-gas-facing surface.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a casing, a rotor assembly rotatably mounted within the casing, the rotor assembly comprising a forward rotor portion defining a forward rotor cavity and an aft rotor portion defining an aft rotor cavity, the aft rotor cavity being fluidly isolated from the forward rotor cavity, and a cooling system. The cooling system includes a forward cooling fluid supply, a forward supply line providing fluid communication between the forward cooling fluid supply and the forward rotor cavity, an aft cooling fluid supply, an aft supply line providing fluid communication between the aft cooling fluid supply and the aft rotor cavity, and a flow control system fluidly coupled to the forward supply line and the aft supply line for regulating a flow of forward cooling fluid and a flow of aft cooling fluid.
