Abstract: A resonance chamber (42) has an outer wall (32) with coolant inlet holes (34A-C), an inner wall (36) with acoustic holes (38), and side walls (40A-C) between the inner and outer walls. A depression (33A-C) in the outer wall has a bottom portion (50) that is close to the inner wall compared to peaks (37A-C) of the outer wall. The coolant inlet holes may be positioned along the bottom portion of the depression and along a bottom portion of the side walls to direct coolant flows (44, 51) toward impingement locations (43) on the inner wall that are out of alignment with the acoustic holes. This improves impingement cooling efficiency. The peaks (37A-C) of the outer wall provide volume in the resonance chamber for a target resonance.

Abstract: A wall structure (32, 42, 68, 70, 80) with layers (A, B, C, D, E) of non-random voids (26A, 26B, 28B, 30B) that interconnect to form discretely defined tortuous passages between an interior (21) and an exterior surface (23) of the wall for transpiration cooling of the wall. A coolant flow (38) through the wall may be metered by restrictions in coolant outlets (31) and/or within the passages to minimize the coolant requirement. Pockets (44) may be formed on the exterior surface of the wall for thermal Insulation (46). The layers may be formed by lamination, additive manufacturing, or casting. Layer geometries include alternating layers (A, B, C) with different overlapping void patterns (42), 3-D lattice structures (70), and offset waffle structures (80).

Abstract: An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes a root, a tip, a leading edge, a trailing edge, and opposed pressure and suction sidewalls extending generally along a radial axis. The airfoil includes a tip cap extending between the pressure and suction sidewalls; and spaced-apart suction-side and pressure-side tip walls extending radially outward from the tip cap to define a tip cavity therebetween. The pressure-side tip wall includes a continuously concave curved arcuate portion, at least a section of which extends circumferentially outward from a radial axis of the airfoil. At least a portion of the pressure-side tip wall is recessed from the pressure sidewall to define an outwardly facing tip shelf, such that the pressure-side tip wall and the tip shelf define a trough therebetween.

Abstract: A turbine airfoil includes pressure and suction sidewalls extending in chord between leading and trailing edges and in span between a root and a tip. A septum is spaced between the sidewalls to define two cooling circuits on opposite sides of the septum which converge between the leading and trailing edges. An array of pins extends inwardly from the pressure sidewall at a discharge end of the circuits, and the pins decrease in length to conform with the converging circuit.

Abstract: A conduit through which hot combustion gases pass in a gas turbine engine. The conduit includes a wall structure having a central axis and defining an inner volume of the conduit for permitting hot combustion gases to pass through the conduit. The wall structure includes a forward end, an aft end axially spaced from the forward end, the aft end defining a combustion gas outlet for the hot combustion gases passing through the conduit, and a plurality of generally radially outwardly extending protuberances formed in the wall structure. The protuberances each include at least one cooling fluid passage formed therethrough for permitting cooling fluid to enter the inner volume. At least one of the protuberances is shaped so as to cause cooling fluid passing through it to diverge in a circumferential direction as it enters into the inner volume.
