Abstract: A cooling system for providing a buffer cooled cooling air to a turbine section of a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The cooling system may comprise a first conduit configured to transmit a cooling air toward the turbine section, a heat exchanger configured to cool a bleed airflow diverted from the first conduit to provide a buffer air, and a bypass conduit configured to direct at least a portion of the buffer air through at least one passageway that bypasses a bearing compartment of the gas turbine engine. The cooling system may further comprise a manifold configured to allow the cooling air exiting the first conduit and the buffer air exiting the bypass conduit to mix and provide the buffer cooled cooling air, and a nozzle assembly configured to deliver the buffer cooled cooling air to the turbine section.

Abstract: A low pressure compressor for a gas turbine engine includes a low pressure compressor case extending circumferentially around a central axis of the gas turbine engine. The low pressure compressor case includes an inner radial wall surrounding a low pressure compressor rotor and an outer radial wall at least partially defining a fan bypass passage of the gas turbine engine. A low pressure compressor compartment is located between the inner radial wall and the outer radial wall and an electrical component is located in the low pressure compressor compartment. An inlet port at the outer radial wall is configured to admit a cooling airflow into the low pressure compressor compartment from the fan bypass passage to cool the electrical component.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a gear system that provides a speed reduction between a fan drive turbine and a fan rotor. Aspects of the gear system are provided with some flexibility. The fan drive turbine has a first exit area and rotates at a first speed. A second turbine section has a second exit area and rotates at a second speed, which is faster than said first speed. A performance quantity can be defined for both turbine sections as the products of the respective areas and respective speeds squared. A performance quantity ratio of the performance quantity for the fan drive turbine to the performance quantity for the second turbine section is relatively high.

Abstract: A rotor assembly of a gas turbine engine may be spoked and includes a rotor and a shell. The rotor has a rotor disk and a plurality of blades each having a platform attached to the rotor disk and with a first channel defined radially between the platforms and the rotor disk. The shell projects aft of the rotor and includes inner and outer walls with a passage defined therebetween. The passage is in fluid communication with the first channel and, together, form part of a secondary flowpath for cooling of adjacent components. The rotor assembly may further include a structure located radially inward of the rotor disk and shell. The structure defines a supply conduit for flowing air from the passage and into a rotor bore defined at least in part by adjacent rotor disks. The entering air, being pre-heated when flowing through the channel and passage, warms the bore and reduces thermal gradients, thus thermal fatigue, across the rotor disk.
