Abstract: A system and method for optimizing performance of an aircraft or boat through detection and trending of engine deterioration based on the performance of the vehicle's gas turbine. The system and method detects declines in engine power due to either of in-transit events or over the extended lifetime of the engine, the declines being due to routine engine part aging or an event. As engine power gradually or suddenly deteriorates, the system and method lowers a maximum operating line which defines the safe limits for peak engine power consumption during flight. For in-transit events, the system and method detects when actual power consumption is approaching the current maximum operating line. The controller may then automate changes to operations of entirely separate aircraft systems, such as rebalancing electrical energy consumption by various non-engine elements of the aircraft.

Abstract: An axially hyperstatic system softener for a transmission comprising a static component and a rotatable component mounted to each other by a double ball bearing having an outer race and an inner race includes first and second biasing elements in a rigid sleeve with the outer race disposed between the first and second biasing elements. The rotatable component includes two shafts splined together with the static component mounted to one of the shafts by the bearing double ball bearing. A shim between one of the biasing elements and the sleeve enables tuning the softener.

Abstract: A turbomachine engine includes a fan assembly and a core engine comprising a turbine and an input shaft rotatable with the turbine is provided. A single-stage epicyclic gear assembly receives the input shaft at a first speed and drives an output shaft coupled to the fan assembly at a second speed. A sun gear rotates about a longitudinal centerline of the gear assembly and has a sun gear-mesh region along the longitudinal centerline of the gear assembly where the sun gear is configured to contact a plurality of planet gears. A ring gear-mesh region is provided along the longitudinal centerline of the gear assembly where a ring gear is configured to contact the plurality of planet gears. The sun gear-mesh region is axially offset from the ring gear-mesh region along the longitudinal centerline.

Abstract: A shroud assembly for a rotary component of a gas turbine engine defining a central axis extending along an axial direction, a radial direction extending perpendicular to the axial direction, and a circumferential direction perpendicular to both the central axis and the radial direction. The shroud assembly includes a plurality of tip shrouds, and each of the plurality of tip shrouds includes a shroud band. Further, each tip shroud of the plurality of tip shrouds is coupled to one of the plurality of rotor blades at a tip end. The plurality of tip shrouds includes a first tip shroud defining a first length in a first direction and a second tip shroud defining a second length in the first direction. Moreover, the second length is different than the first length.

Abstract: A variable pitch propeller assembly operatively coupled with an engine and methods for controlling the pitch of a plurality of propeller blades thereof is provided. In one example aspect, the variable pitch propeller assembly includes features for combining overspeed, feathering, and reverse functionality in a single secondary control valve. The secondary control valve is operable to selectively allow a controlled amount of hydraulic fluid to flow to or from a pitch actuation assembly such that the pitch of the propeller blades can be adjusted to operate the variable pitch propeller assembly in one of a constant speed mode, a feather mode, and a reverse mode.
