    摘要: A strut includes a strut body extending in a radial direction and defining an airfoil shape in cross-section perpendicular to the radial direction. The airfoil shape includes a leading edge and a trailing edge. An extraction inlet is defined through an exterior surface of the strut body, in fluid communication with an internal conduit of the strut body. An injection outlet is defined through the exterior surface of the strut body, in fluid communication with the internal conduit for fluid communication through the internal conduit from the extraction inlet to the injection outlet.

    摘要: A compressor diffuser for a gas turbine engine includes one or more diffuser pipes having a tubular body defining an internal flow passage extending therethrough. The tubular body includes a first portion extending in a first direction, a second portion extending in a second direction different from the first direction, and a curved portion fluidly linking the first portion and the second portion. A splitter vane is disposed within the internal flow passage of the curved portion of the tubular body, the splitter vane defining a convergent flow passage between itself and a radially inner wall of the curved portion.

    摘要: A rotor for a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of radially extending blades, each having a remote blade tip defining an outer tip surface, and a leading edge defined between opposed pressure and suction side airfoil surfaces. A shroud circumferentially surrounds the rotor, and a radial distance between an inner surface of the shroud and the outer tip surface of the blades defines a radial tip clearance gap therebetween. The tip of each of the blades has a pressure side edge formed at the intersection between the outer tip surface and the pressure side airfoil surface, and a suction side edge formed at the intersection between the outer tip surface and the pressure side airfoil surface. The suction side edge has a larger radius of curvature than the pressure side edge, thereby reducing the amount of tip leakage flow through the radial tip clearance gap.

    摘要: A gas turbine engine includes rotor having a hub, and a plurality of blades extending generally radially from the hub. Each of the blades has an airfoil portion. The airfoil portion has a leading edge and a trailing edge defining a chordwise direction, and a root and a tip defining a spanwise direction. Only a sub-set of the blades has a cutback at at least one of the trailing edge and the leading edge. A method of designing and a method of assembling a rotor having noise reduction properties in a gas turbine engine is also presented.

    摘要: A compressor for a gas turbine engine having a bleed air recirculation system includes a plurality of bleed holes extending through the shroud at a first axial location thereon substantially adjacent the blade tips. The bleed holes have a closed outer perimeter along their complete length. An annular bleed cavity surrounds the shroud and is in communication with outlet openings of the bleed holes. The bleed holes provide communication between said main gas flow passage and the bleed cavity. The bleed cavity includes exit passages having outlets disposed in said shroud at a second axial location which is upstream of both the first axial location and the leading edge of the blades of the rotor. Bleed air is passively bled from the main gas flow passage via the bleed holes, recirculated through the bleed cavity and re-injected back into the main gas flow passage at the second axial location.

    摘要: A casing treatment for a compressor includes one or more cavities in a casing disposed radially outwardly of tips of the compressor rotor blades. A liner is moveable relative to the casing between a first position and a second position. The liner is shaped to add a volume to the tip clearance gap when moving from the second position toward the first position. The liner is displaceable between the first and second positions in coordination with at least the rotation of inlet guide vanes (IGVs) between IGV positions.
