Abstract: Variable stator vane assemblies and stator vanes thereof having a local swept leading edge are provided. The variable stator vane comprises an airfoil disposed between spaced apart inner and outer buttons centered about a rotational axis. The inner and outer buttons each have a button forward edge portion. The airfoil includes leading and trailing edges, pressure and suction sides, and a root and a tip. The leading edge, at least a portion of which extends forward of the buttons, includes a local forward sweep at the root, thereby forming a locally swept root of the leading edge thereat. The button forward edge portion of the inner button is substantially vertically aligned with the locally swept leading edge root. Methods are also provided for minimizing endwall leakage in the variable stator vane assembly using the same.

Abstract: A manifold for a gas turbine engine includes oppositely facing first and second walls that extend from an annular wall. An undulating wall oppositely faces the annular wall and couples the first wall to the second wall. The walls collectively form a plurality of first chambers in fluid communication with a plurality of second chambers so that each of the second chambers intersperse adjacent first chambers. Each first chamber has a first volume that is greater that a second volume of each second chamber.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an aerodynamic inlet guide vane assembly for reducing airflow swirl distortion entering an aft fan mounted to a fuselage of an aircraft. Further, the inlet guide vane assembly is configured for mounting to fan shaft and a nacelle of the aft fan. The inlet guide vane assembly includes a plurality of inlet guide vanes grouped into a plurality of inlet guide vane groups. Each of the inlet guide vanes has a shape and an orientation corresponding to airflow conditions entering the fan. Further, the inlet guide vane groups are spaced circumferentially around the central axis as a function of the airflow conditions entering the fan.

Abstract: An annular backing plate for a diffuser in a centrifugal compressor comprises an inner diameter and an outer diameter disposed radially opposite the inner diameter. The backing plate also includes a first surface extending between the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the backing plate. A step is formed on the first surface proximate the inner diameter, wherein the step shifts a portion of the first surface encompassed by the step axially aft relative a portion of the first surface not encompassed by the step.

Abstract: A stator for a gas turbine engine includes a stator vane, a first cooling passage located at the stator to provide a cooling fluid flow to a first portion of the stator, and a second cooling passage located at the stator to provide a cooling fluid flow to a second portion of the stator. A connection passage extends at least partially through the stator to connect a first cooling passage inlet of the first cooling passage to a second cooling passage inlet of the second cooling passage. The cooling fluid flow is directed from a common cooling flow source into the first cooling passage and the second cooling passage via the first cooling passage inlet.
