Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and mitigating gas turbine component misalignment using virtual simulation are disclosed herein. An example method may include capturing data associated with a first nozzle segment and a second nozzle segment of a gas turbine. The method may also include creating, based on the captured data, a virtual representation of the first nozzle segment and the second nozzle segment. The method may also include determining that a misalignment exists in a connection between the virtual representation first nozzle segment and the virtual representation of the second nozzle segment. The method may also include identifying, based on the determination that the misalignment exists, a third nozzle segment. The method may also include determining that a connection between a third nozzle segment and the first nozzle segment includes a smaller misalignment.

Abstract: The present application provides a variable spray system for spraying a workpiece with a spray-able material at different angles. The variable spray system may include a linear actuator, a cam follower assembly, and a spray arm assembly. The linear actuator drives the cam follower assembly such that the cam follower assembly positions the spray arm assembly at a first angle with respect to the workpiece in a first stroke of the linear actuator and positions the spray arm assembly at a second angle with respect to the workpiece in a second stroke of the linear actuator.

Abstract: The present application provides a deformation correction system for a hot gas path surface of a turbine shroud. The deformation correction system may include a first die having a curved surface and a second die such that the hot gas path surface of the turbine shroud is positioned between the first die and the second die.
