摘要: An ultrasonic impact grinding assembly includes a base with a mount for connecting a workpiece to the base and a first tool arm. The ultrasonic impact grinding assembly also includes a second tool arm. The first tool arm and the second tool arm each include a base end, a distal end, at least one joint between the base end and the distal end, and at least one actuator configured to move the at least one joint. A first ultrasonic impact grinding tool head is connected to the distal end of the first tool arm. A second ultrasonic impact grinding tool head is connected to the distal end of the second tool arm.

摘要: A turbine engine with an axis is provided. This turbine engine includes a fan section, a turbine engine core, a bypass flowpath, an engine housing, an evaporator, a condenser and a core flowpath. The turbine engine core is configured to power the fan section. The turbine engine core includes a core compressor section, a core combustor section and a core turbine section. The bypass flowpath is fluidly coupled with and downstream of the fan section. The engine housing includes a cavity radially outboard of and axially overlapping the fan section and/or the bypass flowpath. The evaporator module is within the cavity. The condenser module is within the cavity. The core flowpath extends sequentially through the core compressor section, the core combustor section, the core turbine section, the evaporator module and the condenser module.

摘要: A component of a gas turbine engine includes a continuous hoop portion extending at least partially around an engine central longitudinal axis of the gas turbine engine and a bolting feature extending from the hoop portion, configured for securing the component to an adjacent component. The bolting feature includes a circumferential arm extending radially and circumferentially from the hoop portion. The circumferential arm defines a radial gap between the circumferential arm and the hoop portion. The circumferential arm includes a bolt opening for installation of a bolt therethrough. A connecting leg extends radially from the hoop portion across the radial gap toward the connecting arm. An arm interlocking feature is located at the circumferential arm and is configured to radially interlock with a complementary leg interlocking feature of the connecting leg. The arm interlocking feature and the leg interlocking feature have a radial interconnect gap therebetween in a free state.

摘要: A manufacturing method is provided during which a substrate aperture is formed through a substrate of a preform component for a turbine engine using a first machining process. A coating system is applied onto the substrate to provide a coated substrate. A coating aperture is formed through the coating system using a second machining process that is different than the first machining process. The second machining process includes percussion laser drilling. At least the substrate aperture and the coating aperture collectively form a cooling aperture through the coated substrate.

摘要: A method of analyzing computed tomography data includes creating a mesh of a sampling surface that extends through a component to obtain a meshed surface; creating a plurality of additional surfaces that are different from each other and from the meshed surface, and that each correspond to one or more of a translation and a rotation of the meshed surface; querying an interpolant function, which is fitted to CT data of the component, at a plurality of points of the meshed surface to project the CT data onto the meshed surface; querying the interpolant function at a plurality of points of the additional surfaces to project the CT data onto the additional surfaces; and determining, for each of the plurality of points of the meshed surface, whether the point is a void based on the querying for the meshed surface and the querying for the additional surfaces.

摘要: A combustion assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a combustor, a monochromator, and a photodetector assembly. The combustor forms a combustion chamber. The monochromator is disposed outside the combustion chamber. The monochromator is configured to receive an optical input from the combustion chamber and direct an optical output. The optical input has a range of light wavelengths. The optical output has a subset of the range of light wavelengths. The photodetector assembly is disposed outside the combustion chamber. The photodetector assembly is configured to receive the optical output from the monochromator and generate an output signal representative of one or more optical characteristics of the optical output.

摘要: A method for making a heat exchanger includes machining a plate of material having a starting thickness and at least one alignment feature, the machining including machining down the starting thickness to produce a heat exchanger plate having at least one flow passage segment, and at least two ribs arranged extending along each side of the at least one flow segment; removing the at least one alignment feature to provide a trimmed heat exchanger plate; stacking the trimmed heat exchanger plate with a further heat exchanger plate with the at least two ribs interlocked with ribs of the further heat exchanger plate, and the at least one flow segment aligned with a flow segment of the further heat exchanger plate; and joining the at least two ribs of the trimmed heat exchanger plate and the ribs of the further heat exchanger plate together. The at least two ribs can be configured to interlock with ribs of an adjacent plate. Resulting heat exchangers can be produced wherein the plates define parting plate thicknesses that are thin and useful in space and weight constrained locations.
