Abstract:
A combustor for a gas turbine engine includes an forward fuel injection system in communication with a combustion chamber and a downstream fuel injection system that communicates with the combustion chamber downstream of the forward fuel injection system.
Abstract:
A method of coating a component having a multiple of cooling holes includes removing at least a portion of a prior coating; directing a gas through at least one of the multiple of cooling holes; and applying a coat layer while directing the gas through at least one of the
Abstract:
A combustor for a gas turbine engine including a liner panel mounted to a support shell via a multiple of studs, the liner panel including a forward section and an aft section that defines an angle therebetween in the axial profile between the forward section and the aft section.
Abstract:
A wall assembly that may be for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a liner having a hot face that defines a combustion chamber, an opposite cold face, and a plurality of effusion holes. A shell of the assembly is spaced outward from the cold face and includes a plurality of impingement holes each having a centerline orientated substantially normal to the cold face. A plurality of cooling member arrays of the liner each include a first plurality of members that may be pins projecting outward from the cold face to conduct heat out of the liner. Each array is spaced between adjacent effusion holes and is symmetrically orientated about the respective centerline.
Abstract:
A component for a gas turbine engine includes a substrate with a substrate aperture and a coating on the substrate that extends a length of the substrate aperture. A liner assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a hot sheet with a multiple of apertures and a coating on the hot sheet that extends a length of each of the multiple of apertures. A method of forming an aperture to provide film cooling in a component of a gas turbine engine, includes forming a multiple of substrate apertures in a substrate. Each of the multiple of substrate apertures defines a substrate inner periphery. A coating is applied on the substrate after forming the multiple of substrate apertures to define a coating inner periphery at least partially within each of the multiple of substrate apertures. The coating inner periphery is smaller than the substrate inner periphery.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates generally to a system for fan nacelle inlet flow control in a gas turbine engine, the nacelle comprising a nacelle inlet cowl including an inlet lip disposed at a leading edge of the nacelle inlet cowl, an inner surface extending aft from the inlet lip, and an outer surface extending aft from the inlet lip and positioned radially outward of the inner surface; and at least one flow control passage extending through the nacelle inlet cowl, each of the at least one flow control passage including a flow control passage inlet, disposed on the inlet lip, and a flow control passage outlet; wherein air may flow into the flow control passage inlet, through the flow control passage, and exits the flow control passage outlet.
Abstract:
An assembly may comprise a first part including a first surface, and a second part including a second surface and a bottom edge having sloped regions and at least one well between the sloped regions. The assembly may further comprise a brazed joint joining the first surface to the second surface. The at least one well may be configured to collect excess braze material from the brazed joint.
Abstract:
A component is provided for a gas turbine engine includes a substrate with an aperture. The component also includes a backside coating on a backside of the substrate and at least partially onto an inner boundary of the aperture, where the backside coating forms a passage with the aperture. A method of forming a shaped aperture in a component of a gas turbine engine is provided. The method includes applying a backside coating on a backside of a substrate and at least partially onto an inner boundary of an aperture. The backside coating forms a passage with the aperture including a convergent section, a divergent section and a throat therebetween.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a liner associated with a combustor of an aircraft engine, comprising: a thermal barrier coating, and a base metal, wherein the thermal barrier coating comprises a contoured surface on a flowpath side proximate to an exit of a hole formed by the thermal barrier coating and the base metal.
Abstract:
A swirler includes an inner shroud positioned radially inside an outer shroud. At least one of the outer shroud and inner shroud has a major diameter and a minor diameter, the major diameter being greater than the minor diameter, the major and minor diameters defining an ovate shape. The swirler further includes a plurality of vanes extending between the inner and outer shrouds.
