Abstract:
A rotor disk assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a rotor hub defined about an axis of rotation, the rotor hub includes a blade mount section with a first radial flange having a multiple of first apertures and a second radial flange with a multiple of second apertures.
Abstract:
A Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes a CMC root section which extends to form a CMC airfoil section, the CMC root section defines a bore along a non-linear axis.
Abstract:
A mounting apparatus for a turbine exhaust case (TEC) is provided. The mounting apparatus may include a neck, support links and a plurality of fastening pins. The neck may include an upper portion that is receivable within a pylon associated with the TEC and at least one neck aperture extending therethrough. The support links may downwardly extend from a lower portion of the neck. The support links may be configured to at least partially receive a section of the TEC. Each support link may include at least one link aperture extending therethrough. The fastening pins may include at least one neck pin extending through the neck aperture and at least one link pin extending through the link aperture of each support link.
Abstract:
A mount for a turbine engine has a semi-circular yoke with a first leg and a second leg. The mount also has a stanchion with a cylindrical section attached to the yoke, and a conical section attached to the cylindrical section. A mounting bracket is attached to the conical section.
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine includes a heat exchanger, a diffuser case, a passageway and a nozzle assembly. The heat exchanger exchanges heat with a bleed airflow to provide a conditioned airflow. The diffuser case includes a plenum that receives the conditioned airflow. The passageway is fluidly connected between the heat exchanger and the diffuser case, and the conditioned airflow is communicated through the passageway and into the plenum. The nozzle assembly is in fluid communication with the plenum of the diffuser case to receive the conditioned airflow from the plenum.
Abstract:
A full hoop stator vane cluster includes an inner hoop and an outer hoop both being substantially cylindrical and coaxial. A plurality of airfoils extend radially between the hoops, and a plurality of vane splines extend radially outward from the outer hoop for attaching the vane cluster to a gas turbine engine.
Abstract:
A Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMC) airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes a first multiple of CMC plies which define a suction side, a first airfoil portion of the first multiple of CMC plies at least partially parallel to an airfoil axis. A second multiple of CMC plies define a pressure side, a second airfoil portion of the second multiple of CMC plies at least partially parallel to the airfoil axis and bonded to the first airfoil portion.
Abstract:
A high pressure turbine includes a stator, a rotor, a tangential on-board injector, and a heat shield. The rotor is located downstream of the stator and the tangential on-board injector directs cooling air to the rotor. The heat shield is retained by abutment with the stator and the tangential on-board injector.
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine is provided with turbine sealing structures including knife edge seals which extend at an angle relative to an axial center line of the engine. Each knife edge seal is associated with a concave pocket defined between a radially inner surface and a spaced radially outer surface. The concave pockets and their associated knife edge seals create a pair of vortices which prevent leakage into radially inner portions of the turbine section.
