Abstract:
A turbine seal system comprises an annular structural frame, a circumferential ring, a fairing and a seal. The circumferential ring is joined to the annular structural frame. The fairing is disposed within the annular structural frame and is engaged with the circumferential ring to limit circumferential rotation of the fairing with respect to the annular structural frame. The seal extends between the fairing and the circumferential ring. In one embodiment, the structural component comprises a ring-strut-ring turbine exhaust case.
Abstract:
A system and method for coupling cases associated with an engine of an aircraft. A first case includes a first plurality of threads. A second case includes a second plurality of threads. A coupler includes a third plurality of threads and a fourth plurality of threads. An interface is configured to align the first case and the second case before the first plurality of threads engage the third plurality of threads or the second plurality of threads engage the fourth plurality of threads.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a case for a gas turbine engine, the case including a case wall and a boss that extends from the case wall, the boss including a distal top contoured surface with a through hole fotmed there in, the distal top contoured surface having a non-uniform radial wall thickness.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a first case including a first plurality of threads, a second ease including a second plurality of threads, an interface configured to provide for at least one of anti-rotation or alignment with respect to the first case and the second ease, and a nut including a third plurality of threads configured to engage with the first plurality of threads and a fourth plurality of threads configured to engage with the second plurality of threads.
