Abstract:
Disclosed is a gas turbine engine that includes a plurality of stator vanes. Each of the stator vanes includes an airfoil section and a platform provided at an end of the airfoil section. The platforms are provided with flanges on opposed ends thereof, and the flanges are fastened to corresponding flanges of an adjacent one of the plurality of stator vanes.
Abstract:
An attachment structure for a gas turbine engine includes a frame that has a first annular case. A second annular case extends around the frame. The first annular case and the second annular case include a plurality of interlocks. Each of the interlocks includes a first member mounted on one of the first annular case or the second annular case and a corresponding second member mounted on the other of the first annular case or the second case. The first member is received in the second member such that the plurality of interlocks restricts relative circumferential and axial movement between the first annular case and the second annular case.
Abstract:
A vane assembly for a gas turbine engine is disclosed and includes a plurality of individual vane segments forming an annular ring. Each of the plurality of vane segments is formed of a ceramic matrix composite including at least one airfoil extending between an inner platform and an outer platform. An outer wrap is disposed about an outer periphery of the annular ring and over an interface between outer platforms of adjacent ones of the plurality of vane segments.

Abstract:
An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes first pressure and suction side layers forming a cavity and terminating in ends near a trailing edge. The first and second suction side layers are constructed from a composite material. A bridge is wrapped about the ends.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a seal comprising: a support ring, at least one beam coupled to the support ring, and a shoe coupled to the at least one beam, the shoe having an axial shoe face that includes a rounded edge that is configured to contact a support structure face of a support structure when the seal is subjected to a load that is equal to or greater than a first threshold.
