    Abstract: A bearing holding device with an annular inner region and a flange region, extending at least approximately outwards in the radial direction, with recesses, which flange region is designed in one piece with the inner region and is narrower in the axial direction than the annular inner region, is described. The flange region is, in the circumferential region, surrounded at least in certain regions by a connection region, which is formed in one piece with the flange region and via which the inner region and the flange region can be firmly connected to a housing. Furthermore, a rolling bearing apparatus with the bearing holding device is proposed.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a combustion chamber module having an annular combustion chamber, a feed device for fuel, and an injector assembly positioned in an annular configuration on a combustion chamber head and comprising injectors for feeding in the fuel. The feed device is configured for feeding in liquid and gaseous fuel. In addition to a first injector type for feeding in liquid fuel, the injector assembly has a second injector type, which is designed for feeding in gaseous fuel, in particular hydrogen, wherein the feed device can be controlled in such a way that the first injector type and the second injector type are not supplied simultaneously with fuel.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine control system and a method for limiting turbine overspeed in case of a shaft failure. An overspeed protection system detects a shaft failure of the engine. A variable stator vane mechanism adjusts stator vanes of a compressor of the engine in their rotational position, and is activated to move at least one row of the stator vanes into a closed position which blocks air flow through the compressor in case a shaft failure is detected. Bleed valves in the compressor have closed and open positions and divert in the opened position airflow through the compressor to a bypass channel. A detection system detects directly or indirectly the position of the stator vanes, and the control system sets the bleed valves to the open position when the detection system detects that the stator vanes have moved into the closed position.

    Abstract: A method for producing a nonlinear cylindrical spring produced by winding or coiling a spring wire having wire diameters varying over its length, and formed from a blank with a constant diameter. A drum roller shapes the blank and, between the outer lateral surface of an inner rotor driven in rotation about a central longitudinal axis and the inner lateral surface of a drum concentric with the rotor, has an annular gap which tapers continuously from an input side to an output side, the clear opening width of which, viewed in the radial direction, is greater than the diameter of the blank on the input side and equal to or smaller than the minimum wire diameter of the spring wire on the output side, and the blank is shaped by moving it into the annular gap from the input side to the output side.

    Abstract: A fault monitoring device for a power system includes: a first parallel circuit of resistors that includes a first branch and a second branch both connected to a high side voltage rail of the power system; and a second parallel circuit of resistors that includes a third branch and a fourth branch both connected to a low side voltage rail of the power system. The second branch includes at least two electrical resistors arranged in series, wherein at least one electrical resistor may be short-circuited by a first switch. The fourth branch includes at least two electrical resistors arranged in series, wherein at least one electrical resistor may be short-circuited by a second switch. A controller is configured to selectively switch the switches to provide for different states of the circuits and determine resistance values for the high side and low side insulation resistances of the power system.

    Abstract: A method for determining a shape of a mistuned blade of an impeller includes: providing a nominal blade with radially threaded-on profile elements; providing an initially mistuned blade with profile elements, the mistuned blade having a reduced or increased thickness at at least one of the profile elements compared with the nominal blade; determining the shape of the nominal blade in a hot state; determining the shape of the mistuned blade in the hot state; comparing the two shapes and determining a parameter of the mistuned blade which differs from the corresponding parameter for the nominal blade in the hot state; and changing the value of this parameter for the mistuned blade in the cold state such that the difference between the parameter for the mistuned blade and the nominal blade in the hot state no longer exists.
