Abstract: A seal for an aircraft engine includes an annular body receivable in interference fit in a radial spacing defined between inner and outer cylindrical components of the aircraft engine, the annular body defining a central axis coaxial with the inner and outer cylindrical components, the annular body including an inner portion defining an inner diameter, an outer portion defining an outer diameter, and an intermediate portion extending between the inner and outer portions. The outer portion is slidably engageable to the outer cylindrical component at an outer contact sealing portion of the annular body. One of the inner portion and the outer portion defines at least one cut extending from the one of the inner portion and the outer portion toward another one of the inner portion and the outer portion. A method for sealing a radial spacing between coaxial cylindrical components in an aircraft engine is also described.

Abstract: A centrifugal compressor of an aircraft engine includes an impeller and a shroud extending circumferentially around the impeller. A bellmouth disposed upstream of the impeller extends circumferentially and includes: a conduit section extending from a first end to an upstream-most location of the bellmouth, the first end of the conduit section secured to the shroud, and a peripheral section extending from the upstream-most location to a second end located radially outwardly of the first end, the peripheral section located radially outwardly of the conduit section and axially overlapping the conduit section. A stiffening member is located on the peripheral section of the bellmouth proximate the second end. The stiffening member extends circumferentially and provides the bellmouth with a dynamic vibration mode outside a range of dynamic vibration modes of the aircraft engine during operation.

Abstract: A compressor rotor for a gas turbine engine includes a hub disposed about an axis of rotation and an outer surface forming a radially inner gaspath boundary, the outer surface defining a nominal hub diameter. A circumferential array of blades extends radially outwardly from the hub. A first inter-blade passage is defined between a first set of adjacent blades and has a first throat area. A second inter-blade passage is defined between a second set of adjacent blades and has a second throat area that is smaller than the first throat area. At least one scoop is disposed in the second inter-blade passage, the scoop defining a cavity extending radially into the outer surface of the hub relative to the nominal hub diameter.

Abstract: An orifice pack is provided for delivering pressurized air to a compressor bleed valve of a gas turbine engine. The orifice pack has a diffusion chamber in serial flow communication with a tapering passage and a first outlet passage for venting a first portion of the pressurized air from the diffusion chamber. A second outlet passage branches off from the diffusion chamber at an axial location between the inlet and the tapering passage. The second outlet passage is fluidly connected to the compressor bleed valve for directing a second portion of the pressurized air from the diffusion chamber to the compressor bleed valve.

Abstract: A seal spacer for a gas turbine engine to provide sealing between a casing wall and a stator vane of the engine. The seal spacer comprises a circumferential body having a slot defined therethrough and configured to receive the stator vane therein. The circumferential body is configured to be disposed between and space apart the engine casing wall from a head of the stator vane when the vane is inserted in the slot and the vane is inserted in the opening in the casing wall. The circumferential body includes a support positioned to be engage and provide a gap between the casing wall and the head when the seal spacer is installed therebetween, and an elastomeric seal portion positioned to engage and compressingly provide sealing the casing wall and the head when the seal spacer is installed therebetween to seal the gap.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine is described having a rotor with a plurality of rotor blades each extending radially between a blade root to a blade tip and axially between a leading edge and a trailing edge. An annular casing body housing the rotor blades includes an abradable segment of the inner surface facing the blade tips and having an abradable member. The abradable segment having one or more annular grooves, extending into the casing body from an inner surface thereof, and including an edge groove axially aligned with and facing the leading edge or the trailing edge of the rotor blades. The edge groove extends axially between a first position on the inner surface upstream of the leading edge or the trailing edge, and a second position on the inner surface downstream of the leading edge or the trailing edge.

Abstract: A flow regulating device in a fluid system according to one embodiment may include a housing defining a cavity receiving an orifice body. The orifice body defines a bore extending axially therethrough and includes a flexible end section, with axial slits in one example, to allow the end section to be radially compressed to change a cross-section of a flow passageway when the bore of the orifice body is included in the flow passageway.
