Abstract: A heat exchanger (HEX) for cooling air in a gas turbine engine is provided. The HEX may comprise an intake manifold in fluid communication with a compressor section and configured to receive air from the compressor section, an outtake manifold in fluid communication with the intake manifold via a tube, and a cooling air flow path defined by at least one of an outer surface of the tube, an outer surface of the intake manifold, and an outer surface of the outtake manifold, wherein the cooling air flow path is orthogonal to said tube. The air from the intake manifold may travel through the tube to the outtake manifold and from the outtake manifold to a portion of the gas turbine engine.

Abstract: A method for testing an edge of a rotor blade that has been hardened is disclosed. A shallow notch is created in the edge of the blade using a laser and the blade is then tested using an HCF process. If the blade passes the test, a deeper notch is imparted into the edge of the blade and the blade is retested. If the blade passes the second test, a third notch may be imparted into the edge of the blade and the blade is tested again. Any test failure may provide assistance in modifying the parameters used to harden the blade. The blade may be initially hardened using an LSP process.
