A turbine blade assembly includes an airfoil, a platform, and a first cover plate. A center flow path extends through the platform in communication with an internal cooling circuit of the airfoil, which extends from a first side of the platform. A second side of the platform is located opposite the platform from the first side. An edge of the platform extends between the first and second sides and, a first passage is formed between the first and second sides and includes a first inlet and a first outlet. The first passage extends from the center flow path toward the platform edge, and a first groove is formed on the second side of the platform and extends from the first outlet of the first passage toward the edge of the platform. The first cover plate is disposed over the second side of the platform covering the first groove.

Gas turbine engines and methods for cooling components thereof with mid-impeller bleed (MIB) cooling air having a pressure are provided. The gas turbine engine has a compressor comprising an impeller body and an impeller shroud at least partially surrounding the impeller body. The impeller shroud has a plurality of MIB openings disposed therein. At least one edge treatment is provided thereto. The edge treatment substantially preserves pressure of the cooling air during entrance into and discharge out of the MIB opening. The plurality of MIB openings may be extended MIB openings in a thickened impeller shroud. The centerline of the MIB openings may be oriented to be substantially aligned with an averaged local absolute flow velocity vector of the cooling air at the inlet section of the MIB opening in order to extract cooling air in a direction that has a vector component in a tangential, an axial, and a radial flow direction.

A turbine blade includes a convex suction side wall, a concave pressure side wall, a tip wall, an internal cooling circuit, and a plurality of tip edge channels. The tip wall is recessed from a first tip edge of the suction side wall and a second tip edge of the concave pressure side wall to define a suction side wall tip section and a pressure side wall tip section, and the suction side wall tip section is shorter than the pressure side wall tip section. The internal cooling circuit is formed at least partially between the convex suction side wall, the concave pressure side wall, and the tip wall. The plurality of tip edge channels formed through the first tip edge of the convex suction side wall extend to the internal cooling circuit. Methods of manufacturing turbine blades are also provided.

摘要:
An impeller or axial stage compressor disk backface shroud for use with a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The backface shroud includes, but is not limited to, a substantially funnel shaped body having a surface. The substantially funnel shaped body is configured to be statically mounted to the gas turbine engine substantially coaxially with the impeller or axial stage compressor disk. The surface and a backface of the impeller or axial stage compressor disk form a cavity that guides an airflow portion to a turbine when the substantially funnel shaped body is mounted coaxially with the impeller or axial stage compressor disk and axially spaced apart therefrom. The airflow portion has a tangential velocity and a recessed groove in the surface of the backface shroud is oriented generally transversely to the tangential velocity to at least partially interfere with the airflow portion, thus affecting static pressure in the cavity.
摘要:
A gas turbine engine is configured to use relatively cool, low pressure air discharged from a low pressure compressor to supply buffer air to lubrication sump seals. The engine is further configured such that the lubrication sump is thermally layered by isolating relatively hot, high pressure compressor air from the sump by utilizing a warm vent mixing cavity, which is located radially between of the hot high pressure compressor air and the cool buffer air, which is located in a buffer cavity between the vent cavity and the sump.
