Abstract:
A gas turbine engine includes a core engine, a fan coupled to be driven by the core engine, a first case structure around the core engine and a second case structure around the fan. The first case structure and the second case structure define a bypass passage there between. A vane structure includes an airfoil extending radially between the first case structure and the second case structure. A seal is configured to control leakage between the bypass passage and a core engine.
Abstract:
A disclosed gas turbine engine includes a fan including a plurality of fan blades rotatable about an engine axis and core engine disposed within a core nacelle for driving the fan. A bypass passage is defined between the core nacelle and an outer or fan nacelle. A duct mounted within the core nacelle defines a bleed air flow path for directing bleed air from the core engine into the bypass passage. The bleed air duct includes a plurality of airfoils disposed at a defined chord angle for directing bleed airflow into the bypass passage to minimize disruption to bypass airflow.
