摘要:
A gas turbine engine configured to rotate in a circumferential direction about an axis extending through a center of the gas turbine engine comprises a turbine stage. The turbine stage comprises a disk, a plurality of blades and a mini-disk. The disk comprises an outer diameter edge having slots, an inner diameter bore surrounding the axis, a forward face, and an aft face. The plurality of blades is coupled to the slots. The mini-disk is coupled to the aft face of the rotor to define a cooling plenum therebetween in order to direct cooling air to the slots. In one embodiment of the invention, the cooling plenum is connected to a radially inner compressor bleed air inlet through all rotating components so that cooling air passes against the inner diameter bore.

A rotor for a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of blades which extend from a rotor disk and at least one spacer adjacent to the plurality of blades. A flow passage is defined between the rotor disk and the blades and spacer. A plurality of inlets are formed within the spacer to pump air into the flow passage.

A gas turbine engine includes a buffer cooling system having a first heat exchanger, a first passageway, a second passageway and a third passageway. The first heat exchanger exchanges heat with a bleed airflow to provide a conditioned airflow. The first passageway communicates a first portion of the conditioned airflow to a high pressure compressor of the gas turbine engine, the second passageway communicates a second portion of the conditioned airflow to a high pressure turbine of the gas turbine engine, and the third passageway communicates a third portion of the conditioned airflow to a low pressure turbine of the gas turbine engine.
摘要:
A turbine engine section has a stationary vane stage and a rotating blade stage. The blade stage is spaced from the vane stage to form an annular chamber therebetween. A manifold delivers a pressurized fluid to the chamber. An outer diameter (OD) sealing system restricts leakage of the pressurized fluid from the chamber. An inner diameter (ID) sealing system restricts leakage of the pressurized fluid from the chamber. A flow guide extends radially between the inner diameter sealing system and the manifold. The flow guide bisects the chamber to form a stationary chamber portion and a rotating chamber portion, the rotating chamber portion at least partially along a disk of the first blade stage.
