A combustor component of a gas turbine engine including a heat shield panel. The heat shield panel a defines microcircuit flow path within a thickness of said heat shield panel.
摘要:
A heat shield includes a panel having a forward face and an aft face, a circumferential outer side and a circumferential inner side such that the panel subtends a predetermined arc, and a first radially extending side and a second radially extending side each extending from the circumferential outer side to the circumferential inner side. The panel defines an opening extending between the forward face and the aft face, a lip projecting from the forward face and extending around the opening, a rail projecting from the forward face and extending around the lip to define a cavity region between the lip and the rail, and a plurality of holes in the cavity region. Each of the plurality of holes extends from the forward face to the aft face. A region of the panel extending from the lip to the circumferential outer side is free of any aft-projecting features.
摘要:
A cooling system for a turbine exhaust assembly comprises an annular case, a flowpath ring and a splash plate. The flowpath ring is coaxially disposed within the annular case. The splash plate extends axially between the annular case and the flowpath ring. A plurality of cooling fluid apertures is formed in the annular case, in order to provide cooling fluid flow onto the splash plate. A plurality of impingement holes is formed in the splash plate, in order to provide impingement flow onto the flowpath ring.
摘要:
A cooled turbine exhaust case assembly includes a plenum defined at least in part by a forward outer diameter flowpath ring and a turbine case, a probe positioned at a probe opening formed in the forward outer diameter flowpath ring, and an inlet opening in the turbine case for introducing cooling air to the plenum.
摘要:
Gas turbine engine systems and methods involving enhanced fuel dispersion are provided. In this regard, a representative method for operating a gas turbine engine includes: providing a gas path through the engine; introducing a spray of fuel along the gas path downstream of a turbine of the engine; and impinging the spray of fuel with a relatively higher velocity flow of air such that atomization of the fuel is increased.

摘要:
A tangential air entry fuel nozzle has a longitudinal axis and two cylindrical-arc scrolls with the centerline of each offset from that of the other. Overlapping ends of these scrolls form an air inlet slot therebetween for the introduction of an air/fuel mixture into the fuel nozzle. A combustor-end endplate has a central opening to permit air and fuel to exit into a combustor, while at the opposite end another endplate blocks the nozzle flow area. The scrolls are secured between these endplates. A centerbody is located between the scrolls coaxial with the axis. The centerbody has a base which includes at least one air supply port extending therethrough, and an internal passageway. The centerbody includes a frustum portion and aerodynamic ramps that prevent flow reversal and flame stabilization between the endplates.

A premix liquid fuel nozzle has longitudinal air entrance slots (24) into a cylindrical chamber (20). A centerbody (42) produces an axially increasing flow area toward the chamber outlet (32). Liquid fuel is atomized in a specified location (58) adjacent the conical centerbody (42). This area has a high axial shear velocity producing thorough vaporization and uniform mixing before combustion.
