    Abstract: An airfoil assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a first blade having a first leading edge and a first trailing edge, and a second blade circumferentially spaced from the first blade where the second blade has a second leading edge and a second trailing edge. The first blade includes a feature formed on the first leading edge where the first blade includes a chord extending from the first leading edge to the first trailing edge. The chord is located radially where a projection of a line normal to an intersection of the chord with the first trailing edge intersects the second leading edge. At least a portion of the feature is radially located at or inboard of the chord.

    Abstract: An exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine. The exhaust nozzle comprises a nozzle body having an upstream end axially spaced from a downstream end with respect to an axial centerline of the nozzle body, and a plurality of chevrons circumferentially spaced apart and extending downstream from the downstream end. Each chevron includes an inner wall radially spaced from an outer wall, a root and a tip axially spaced from the root. At least one chevron of the plurality of chevrons includes a first segment extending axially downstream from the root, a second segment extending axially downstream from the first segment, and a third segment extending axially downstream from the second segment to the tip. The inner wall extends along the first segment, the second segment, and third the segment. The first segment is distinguishable from the second segment and the second segment is distinguishable from the third segment.

    Abstract: An aerodynamic device defining a thickness direction is provided. The aerodynamic device configured to produce lift or thrust or configured to be a part of an aerodynamic system that produces lift or thrust. The aerodynamic device includes a cowl assembly that defines at least in part an airflow stream. The cowl assembly includes a first cowl and a second cowl moveable relative to the first cowl. The first cowl includes a plurality of first cowl indentations at an end of the first cowl. The second cowl defines an outer surface along the thickness direction and an inner surface along the radial direction. The second cowl includes a plurality of second cowl indentations complementary in shape to the plurality of first cowl indentations. The plurality of second cowl indentations are positioned locally on the outer surface of the second cowl or locally on the inner surface of the second cowl.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to implement a low radius ratio fan blade for a gas turbine engine. A fan blade for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil including a leading edge and a trailing edge extending between a root and a tip of the airfoil, a distance between the leading edge and the trailing edge defining a flow path length, a leading edge hub point defined by a radially innermost point of the leading edge, and an axial dovetail including a pair of opposed pressure faces, an axial length of the axial dovetail less than the flow path length, a top edge of the axial dovetail separating the pressure faces from the airfoil, the top edge of the axial dovetail radially outward of the leading edge hub point.
