摘要: A propulsion system for an aircraft includes a fan that is rotatable about a fan axis, a core engine that is configured for generating a gas flow utilized to generate shaft power for driving the fan, a nacelle that surrounds the core engine and the fan, a condenser where water in the gas flow is condensed into a liquid form, an exhaust duct assembly where the gas flow exhausted from the core engine is directed to the condenser, an ejector duct where a portion of a bypass airflow is thermally communicated with the condenser to cool the gas flow, and an evaporator assembly that is in thermal communication with the exhaust duct where water recovered by the condenser is heated to generate a steam flow that is subsequently communicated to the core engine.

摘要: A blade outer airseal assembly of a gas turbine engine includes a blade outer airseal (BOAS) segment, and a BOAS carrier positioned radially outboard of the BOAS segment relative to an engine central longitudinal axis. The BOAS segment is secured to the BOAS carrier, and an adjustment lever is operably connected to the BOAS carrier. Rotation of the adjustment lever about a pivot axis at a pivot urges movement of the BOAS segment in a radial direction.

摘要: An assembly for an aircraft propulsion system includes a propulsor and an imaging assembly. The propulsor includes a propulsor disk, a plurality of propulsor blades, and a nose cone. The plurality of propulsor blades are circumferentially distributed about the propulsor disk. Each propulsor blade of the plurality of propulsor blades extends radially between and to a root end and a tip end. The root end is disposed at the propulsor disk. The propulsor disk and the plurality of propulsor blades are configured to rotate about the rotational axis. The nose cone is disposed axially adjacent the propulsor disk. The imaging assembly includes an imaging device disposed on the nose cone. The imaging device includes a camera. The camera is configured to capture image data of each propulsor blade of the plurality of propulsor blades as the plurality of propulsor blades rotate about the rotational axis.

摘要: An attachment root for a blade includes a symmetric serration profile with multiple lobes. Contact surfaces of each lobe form equal contact angles with a line normal to a symmetry plane of the serration profile. Non-contact surfaces of lobes form angles greater than three degrees relative to the line that increase in a radially inward direction.

摘要: A gas turbine engine includes a fan shaft rotatable about an axis, a fan connected to the fan shaft, and an outer housing surrounding the fan to define a bypass passage. A compressor section has both a low pressure compressor that is fixed to rotate with the fan shaft and a high pressure compressor. A turbine section has a low pressure turbine driving a low speed spool and a high pressure turbine driving the high pressure compressor. The low pressure turbine includes rotating blades and a static structure aft of the rotating blades. A fan drivetrain includes a geared architecture connecting the low speed spool to the fan shaft such that the fan and low pressure compressor rotate at a lower speed than the low pressure turbine. A thrust bearing is axially aft of the geared architecture and axially forward of the high pressure compressor. A tower shaft is rotatably driven by the low speed spool.
