摘要： A vane adjustment assembly includes a plurality of vanes, an annular ring coupled to the vanes, and a ring adjustment assembly. The ring adjustment assembly includes a first inclined plate and a second inclined plate, the first inclined plate having an inclined surface facing a first inclined surface of the second inclined plate. A roller pin is coupled to a second inclined surface of the second inclined plate opposite the first inclined surface. The second inclined plate is adjustable in the circumferential direction such that the inclined surface of the first inclined plate and the first inclined surface of the second inclined plate slide against each other during adjustment of the second inclined plate so as to adjust an axial position and a circumferential position of the roller pin relative to the annular ring.

摘要： A system for energy conversion that includes a propulsion system, a fuel circuit, a combustion device, a turbine, and a load device. The fuel circuit is in fluid communication with a fuel tank and a fuel flow control device that separates a flow of fuel into a first portion and a second portion. The combustion device receives a flow of oxidizer and the second portion of fuel to generate combustion gases. The turbine receives the combustion gases from the combustion device via a fluid circuit. The load device is operably coupled to the turbine via a driveshaft and is configured to receive torque from the driveshaft.

摘要： A combustor section of a gas turbine engine includes a combustor having a combustor inlet, and a combustor bypass passage having a passage inlet located upstream of the combustor inlet. The combustor bypass passage is configured to divert a selected bypass airflow around the combustor. A combustor bypass valve is located at the combustor bypass passage to control the selected bypass airflow along the combustor bypass passage. A method of operating a gas turbine engine, includes urging a core airflow from a compressor section toward a combustor section, flowing a first portion of the core airflow into the combustor section via a combustor inlet, and flowing a second portion of the core airflow into a combustor bypass passage via a combustor bypass valve, thereby bypassing the combustor with the second portion of the core airflow.

摘要： A fuel system includes a fuel pump formed of a constant-volume pump for changing a discharge flow rate in conjunction with a variation in a speed of revolution of a drive shaft, a boost pump disposed upstream from the fuel pump and formed of a constant-volume pump of which a discharge flow rate per unit of revolution of a drive shaft is greater than that of the fuel pump, a single electric motor rotationally driving the drive shaft of the fuel pump and the drive shaft of the boost pump in a state in which the speeds of revolution thereof are equal to each other, a return flow channel connecting an upstream side and a downstream side of the boost pump, and a relief valve disposed in the return flow channel and opened when an internal pressure of the return flow channel is greater than a reference pressure.

摘要： An actuator system mounted to a gas turbine engine that communicates mechanical power for positioning variable guide vanes within the gas turbine engine. The actuator system includes a torque box having components for communicating mechanical power to the variable guide vanes for positioning the vanes and an actuator mechanically coupled to provide mechanical power to the components of the torque box used to communicate the provided mechanical power to the inlet guide vanes. The actuator is mounted to the torque box via an elongate fastener extending in one direction and another elongate fastener extending in another direction.

摘要： A gas turbine engine has a main compressor section. A turbine section has a variable vane positioned upstream of a rotor blade, and the variable vane is provided with an actuator operable to control an orientation of the variable vane. A tap line taps air from the compressor section, and passes the tapped air through a cooling compressor. The cooling compressor is a fixed flow compressor. Air downstream of the cooling compressor is delivered into the turbine section.

摘要： An axial-flow turbine according to an embodiment includes a plurality of nozzle structures and a plurality of blade structures. At least one nozzle structure includes an outer ring diaphragm and an inner ring diaphragm. The outer ring diaphragm and the inner ring diaphragm form an annular opening portion which extends in a circumferential direction therebetween. A nozzle is provided in a portion of a region of the annular opening portion in the circumferential direction, and a closing part is provided in another portion of the region of the annular opening portion in the circumferential direction. The closing part closes this other portion of the region to prevent a working fluid from flowing into this other portion of the region. A closing part medium passage is provided in the closing part and is configured to flow a cooling medium which cools the closing part.
