Abstract: A rotor assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This rotor assembly includes a first rotor disk, a second rotor disk, a plurality of rotor blades and a plurality of vanes. The first rotor disk is configured to rotate about a rotational axis. The first rotor disk is configured from or otherwise includes disk material. The second rotor disk is configured to rotate about the rotational axis. The rotor blades are arranged circumferentially around the rotational axis. Each of the rotor blades is axially between and mounted to the first rotor disk and the second rotor disk. The vanes are arranged circumferentially around the rotational axis and axially between the first rotor disk and the second rotor disk. The vanes include a first vane, which first vane is configured from or otherwise includes vane material that is different than the disk material.

Abstract: A method and system of providing customizable service for an asset. The method including generating a predictive model for each asset of a fleet, each predictive model based on an operational profile for the asset and including a probability density function associated with the operational durability of the asset, establishing a maintenance strategy associated with the asset, and combining each of the predictive models to generate a compound fleet performance model, the fleet performance model including a combined probability density function. The method also includes collecting actual asset performance and maintenance data to generate actual asset metrics, determining a fleet performance profile based on the actual asset metrics indicative of a health assessment of the fleet, comparing the predicted fleet performance with the actual fleet performance, and ascertaining actionable choices for managing the assets based on a deviation of the predicted and actual fleet performance.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine article includes a cooling passage network embedded in an article wall between inner and outer portions of the article wall. The network has an inlet orifice through the inner portion to receive cooling air from a cavity, a sub-passage region that includes an array of pedestals, and at least one outlet orifice through the outer portion. The array of pedestals includes first pedestals arranged in a first row and second pedestals arranged in a second, adjacent row. The first pedestals and the second pedestals define inter-row sub-passages there between. Each of the inter-row sub-passages has an inlet mouth, an outlet mouth, and a compound channel connecting the inlet mouth and the outlet mouth. The compound channel includes a first channel length over which the inter-row sub-passage has a constant cross-section and a second channel length over which the inter-row sub-passage has a non-constant cross-section.

Abstract: A fuel injector providing a flow of fuel having a variable swirl and/or variable effective area is disclosed. The fuel injector may have a nozzle defining a mixing chamber having an outlet proximate a centerline of the mixing chamber, a first fuel line in fluid communication with the mixing chamber and a second fuel line in fluid communication with the mixing chamber. The first fuel line may terminate in a tangential fuel inlet positioned tangential to the centerline of the nozzle, while the second fuel line may terminate in a radial fuel inlet positioned radial to the centerline of the nozzle.

Abstract: A combustor panel arrangement for a gas turbine engine. The combustor panel arrangement includes a first combustor panel that has a first edge. A second combustor panel has a second edge facing the first edge. A first plurality of effusion holes extend through the first edge towards the second edge along a corresponding one of a first plurality of flow paths. A second plurality of effusion holes extend through the second edge along a corresponding one of a second plurality flow paths towards the first edge. The first plurality of flow paths and the second plurality of flow paths are non-intersecting.

Abstract: A rotor has a rotor body having: a flange with a circumferential array of discontiguous apertures; and a surface spaced apart from the flange. One or more rotor balance weight assemblies each have a weight and a fastener. The weight has: a passageway having a first end and a second end; an internal thread along the passageway; and a boss at the first end of the passageway. The boss is in a respective one of the apertures. The fastener has: a shank having a first end and a second end and an external thread engaged to the passageway internal thread; an engagement feature at the shank first end for engagement by a tool to turn the fastener; and a head at the second end contacts the surface.

Abstract: An engine control system includes an electronic hardware engine controller in signal communication with at least one engine sensor, which measures an engine operating parameter (Ycrtr_t). The engine controller generates a synthesized engine operating parameter (Ycrtr) calculates an error (ERRcrtr) between the engine operating parameter (Ycrtr_t) and the synthesized engine operating parameter (Ycrtr). The engine controller further determines a corrector error parameter (Xcrtr) and determines a faulty sensor among the at least one engine sensor based on a comparison between the error value (ERRcrtr) and the corrector error parameter (Xcrtr).
