    摘要: A manufacturing method is provided during which a body is additively manufactured. The body includes an engine case for a gas turbine engine, a support structure and an aperture. The support structure projects out from the engine case. The support structure includes a lattice, a wall and an internal volume. The wall surrounds the lattice. The internal volume is within the support structure along the lattice. The internal volume is filled with powder. The aperture is at an intersection between the engine case and the support structure. The powder is extracted from the internal volume through the aperture.

    摘要: An engine system is provided that includes a gas turbine engine and an actuation system. The gas turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustor section, a turbine section and a flowpath extending through the compressor section, the combustor section and the turbine section. The actuation system includes a fluid reservoir, a flow regulator and a flow circuit. The flow regulator is configured as or otherwise includes a barrier between the fluid reservoir and the flow circuit. The flow regulator is configured to fluidly decouple the fluid reservoir from the flow circuit when the barrier is intact. The flow regulator is configured to fluidly couple the fluid reservoir with the flow circuit when the barrier breaks. The flow circuit is configured to direct gas from the fluid reservoir into the flowpath when the barrier breaks.

    摘要: A method of constructing an additive manufactured article with erodible support. The method includes computing a length of an overhanging geometry that extends from an inner surface of an additively manufactured article; determining points along the overhanging geometry determining an outside point and an inside point from the multiple of overhanging geometry points; determining an anchor point by moving from the inside point I antiparallel to the build direction by a distance sufficient to form an angle greater than a critical angle of the additive process; connecting the anchor point to the overhanging geometry points to form ligament segments; thickening the ligament segments to form a solid ligament to form the erodible support; and additively manufacturing the overhanging geometry from the inner surface of the additively manufactured article via the erodible support, the erodible support erodible during operation of the additively manufactured article.

    摘要: An assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This gas turbine engine assembly includes a split case structure. The split case structure includes a first wall, a second wall, a first case segment and a second case segment. The first wall extends axially along and circumferentially about an axial centerline. The second wall extends axially along and circumferentially about the axial centerline. The second wall is radially outboard of and axially overlaps the first wall. The first case segment is configured to form a first portion of the first wall and a first portion of the second wall. The second case segment is configured to form a second portion of the first wall and a second portion of the second wall. The second case segment is circumferentially adjacent and attached to the first case segment at a joint.

    摘要: A monolithic combustion liner for use in a gas turbine engine includes fuel channels integrated into the wall of the combustion liner. The integrated fuel channels can have an aerodynamic shape to reduce flow losses of cooling air flowing around the exterior of the combustion liner. The monolithic combustion liner allows more cooling air to flow around the combustion liner, increasing the cooling of the combustor region of the gas-turbine engine.

    摘要: An assembly is provided for a turbine engine. This turbine engine assembly includes a case structure and an air conduit. The case structure extends circumferentially about and axially along an axis. The air conduit has a conduit centerline, a conduit first end and a conduit second end. The air conduit extends longitudinally along the conduit centerline between the conduit first end and the conduit second end. The conduit first end is connected to the case structure at a first location. The conduit second end is connected to the case structure at a second location. The air conduit is displaced from the case structure longitudinally between the conduit first end and the conduit second end. At least a majority of the conduit centerline follows a non-straight trajectory.
