Abstract: Flow path assemblies and methods for assembling a flow path assembly of a gas turbine engine are provided. For example, a flow path assembly comprises a unitary outer wall including combustor and turbine portions that are integrally formed as a single unitary structure; a single piece, generally annular inner band; and a plurality of nozzle airfoils extending from the unitary outer wall to the inner band. Each nozzle airfoil interfaces with the inner band to position the inner band within the assembly. An exemplary assembly method comprises inserting an inner band into a flow path having a unitary outer wall as its outer boundary; inserting a plurality of nozzle airfoils into the flow path; and securing the nozzle airfoils with respect to the unitary outer wall. The inner band interfaces with an inner end of each nozzle airfoil to radially locate the inner band within the flow path.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a component for a gas turbine. The component includes a component wall having a radially inner surface, a radially outer surface, a first circumferential surface, and a second circumferential surface. A first boss extends radially outwardly from the radially outer surface, includes a first circumferentially outer surface, and defines a first aperture extending axially therethrough. A second boss extends radially outwardly from the radially outer surface and is circumferentially spaced apart from the first boss. The second boss includes a second circumferentially outer surface and defines a second aperture extending axially therethrough. The first circumferentially outer surface of the first boss and the second circumferentially outer surface of the second boss form a pair of angles with respect to the radially inner surface.

Abstract: A shroud hanger assembly or shroud assembly is provided for dimensionally incompatible components wherein the assembly includes a multi-piece hanger, for example having a forward hanger portion and a rearward hanger portion. A cavity is formed between the parts; wherein a shroud may be positioned which is formed of a low coefficient of thermal expansion material. The hanger and shroud may be formed of the same material or differing materials in order to better match the thermal growth between the hanger and the shroud. When the shroud is positioned within the hanger opening or cavity, one of the forward and rearward hanger portions may be press fit or otherwise connected into the other of the forward and rearward hanger portion.

Abstract: A shroud assembly includes a shroud segment and a hanger. In one exemplary aspect, the shroud segment has a shroud body extending substantially along a circumferential direction between a first end and a second end. The shroud body defines a radial centerline along the circumferential direction. A flange is attached to or integral with the shroud body. The flange is pivotally coupled with the hanger at a location spaced from the radial centerline of the shroud body.

Abstract: A rotor assembly apparatus that includes a rotatable component and a ring-shroud. The rotatable component is mounted for rotation about a first axis. The ring-shroud defines an inner surface that surrounds the rotatable component and that defines a second axis. A sensing system is configured to monitor the position of the first axis relative to the second axis. A casing surrounds the ring-shroud and an actuation system is configured to move the ring-shroud relative to the casing, in response to the sensing system.

Abstract: A composite annular shroud supported by a support assembly including at least one ring and at least partially disposed within the ring. The shroud is biased against and in sealing engagement with an inner flange of the ring. A three ring assembly includes the inner ring disposed radially inwardly of a middle ring disposed radially inwardly of an outer ring and the shroud at least partially disposed within the inner ring. At least three clocking pins extend radially inwardly from the middle ring through slots in the inner ring into notches in the shroud. The middle ring may be an aft end of a support ring fixedly connected to an engine backbone. Mounting pins may be press fitted into pin holes in the middle ring and extend radially outwardly from the middle ring through radial holes in the outer ring.
