摘要: A bearing assembly having an axially extending axis of rotation is provided having an inner ring, an outer ring, and a plurality of bearing elements. The plurality of bearing elements are disposed between the inner ring and the outer ring. The outer ring includes an outer radial surface, an inner radial surface, and a raceway disposed in the inner radial surface. The raceway is defined by a first surface and a second surface, and the first surface intersects with the second surface at a point aft of an axial midpoint of the raceway. The outer ring includes a plurality of apertures that provide a fluid passage between the raceway and an exterior surface of the outer ring. A first end of each of the plurality of apertures is substantially aligned with the intersection of the first surface and the second surface.

摘要: A damper assembly according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first housing adjacent to a second housing that supports a rotatable gas turbine engine component. The first housing defines first and second fluid passages. The first fluid passage is coupled to a first valve. One of the first and second housings defines first, second and third annular grooves that receive respective first, second and third seal members. The first and second housings define a first annular damper cavity between the first and second seal members and in fluid communication with the first fluid passage, and define a second annular damper cavity between the second and third seal members and in fluid communication with the second fluid passage.
