Abstract:
An inner bushing assembly (280) to provide a biasing force between a guide vane (260) and an inner ring half (261) of a gas turbine engine compressor (200) is disclosed. The inner bushing assembly (280) includes a first bushing (281), a second bushing (282), and a biasing element (283). The first bushing (281) is configured to be installed about an inner vane shaft (267) of the guide vane (260) adjacent to an airfoil (265) of the guide vane (260). The second bushing (282) is configured to be installed about the inner vane shaft (267) distal to the airfoil (265). The biasing element (283) is configured to be installed about the inner vane shaft (267) between the first bushing (281) and the second bushing (282).
Abstract:
A system and method for washing a gas turbine engine. The method for washing the gas turbine engine includes coupling a pressurized air supply assembly to an air supply and to a secondary air system, cranking a compressor rotor assembly of the gas turbine engine, supplying pressurized offline buffer air from the air supply to the pressurized air supply assembly, and spraying a cleaner into the compressor.
