    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a compressor section and a compressor case with a low pressure compressor (LPC) and a high pressure compressor (HPC). The HPC is aft of the LPC. The compressor case defines a centerline axis. The compressor section also includes a rotor disk defined between the compressor case and the centerline axis. A plurality of stages are defined radially inward relative to the compressor case. The plurality of stages include at least one tandem blade stage. The tandem blade stage includes a plurality of blade pairs. Each blade pair is circumferentially spaced apart from the other blade pairs, and is operatively connected to the rotor disk. Each blade pair includes a forward blade and an aft blade. The aft blade is configured to further condition air flow with respect to the forward blade without an intervening stator vane stage shrouded cavity therebetween.

    Abstract: A rotor disk for a turbomachine includes a disk body, a rim configured to connect to or include a rotor blade disposed on a radially outward portion of the disk body, a bore defined in a radially inward portion of the disk body and configured to be radially adjacent to a shaft, and a thermal regulation aperture defined in the disk body, radially inward of the rim, for allowing flow to pass axially through the disk body when disposed in a stage of a turbomachine, and a thermal regulation aperture defined in the disk body for allowing flow to pass through the disk body when disposed in a stage of a turbomachine.

    Abstract: A bleed air cooling system for a gas turbine engine includes one or more bleed flowpaths operably connected to a bleed outlet to divert a bleed airflow from a gas turbine engine flowpath. Each bleed flowpath includes two or more bleed ports to divert a bleed airflow from a gas turbine engine flowpath, and a bleed duct in fluid communication with the bleed ports and configured to convey the bleed airflow from the two or more bleed ports to the bleed outlet. A valve is located at each bleed port of and is configured to move between an opened position and a closed position, and one or more sensors are located along the bleed flowpath to sense one or more conditions of the bleed air cooling system. The valve at a particular bleed port is moved to the opened position based on the sensed one or more conditions.

    Abstract: A compressor for use in a gas turbine engine comprises a compressor rotor including blades and a disc, with a bore defined radially inwardly of the disc. A radially outer housing surrounds an outer diameter of the blades. A lower pressure tap and a higher pressure tap tap air from two distinct locations within the compressor and radially outwardly through the outer housing. A valve selectively delivers at least one of the lower pressure tap and the higher pressure tap to the bore of the disc. A control for the valve is programmed to move the valve to a position delivering the higher pressure tap at a point prior to take-off when the compressor is mounted in a gas turbine engine on an aircraft. A gas turbine engine and a method of operating a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A bleed air cooling system for a gas turbine engine includes one or more bleed flowpaths operably connected to a bleed outlet to divert a bleed airflow from a gas turbine engine flowpath. Each bleed flowpath includes two or more bleed ports to divert a bleed airflow from a gas turbine engine flowpath, a bleed duct configured to convey the bleed airflow from the two or more bleed ports to the bleed outlet, and a delta-pressure valve located at each bleed port of the two or more bleed ports configured to move between an opened position and a closed position in response to a difference between a first pressure upstream of the delta-pressure valve and a second pressure downstream of the delta pressure valve. The bleed airflow is selectably conveyed through a bleed port of the two or more bleed ports depending on the operation of the associated delta-pressure valve.
