摘要: A gas turbine engine includes a compressor section and a turbine section. The turbine section includes a drive turbine and is located downstream of the compressor section. The gas turbine engine also includes a fan mechanically coupled to and rotatable with the drive turbine such that the fan is rotatable by the drive turbine at the same rotational speed as the drive turbine, the fan defining a fan pressure ratio and including a plurality of fan blades, each fan blade defining a fan tip speed. During operation of the gas turbine engine at a rated speed, the fan pressure ratio of the fan is less than 1.5 and the fan tip speed of each of the fan blades is greater than 1,250 feet per second.

摘要: A turbine assembly includes a rotor assembly including a shaft coupled to a plurality of rotor stages including a plurality of turbine blades. The shaft and the plurality of turbine blades define a wheelspace therein. The turbine assembly further includes a plurality of seals in series, at least one seal of the plurality of seals is coupled between a static support member and a respective rotor stage such that a plurality of turbine cavities in series are defined within the wheelspace. Each turbine cavity of the plurality of turbine cavities defined by the plurality of seals receives a pressurized fluid flow that applies an axially aft force to the respective rotor stage of the plurality of rotor stages that at least partially reduces net rotor thrust generated by the rotor assembly during operation, the pressurized fluid flow further provides turbine purge within the wheel space.

摘要: A turbomachinery engine includes a fan assembly, a low-pressure turbine, and a gearbox. The fan assembly includes a plurality of fan blades. The low-pressure turbine includes 3-5 rotating stages. The low-pressure turbine includes an area ratio equal to the annular exit area of an aft-most rotating stage of the low-pressure turbine divided by the annular exit area of a forward-most rotating stage of the low-pressure turbine. In some instances, the area ratio is within a range of 3.1-5.1.

摘要: A gas turbine engine having a heat absorption device and an associated method are disclosed. The gas turbine engine includes a compressor having a compressor discharge nozzle, a combustor coupled to the compressor, a turbine coupled to the combustor and the compressor, a fluid flow passage fluidly coupling the compressor and the turbine and bypassing the combustor, and a heat absorption device disposed fluidly along the fluid flow passage at a first predefined location. The heat absorption device includes a casing having an inlet and an outlet, a flow path within the casing and extending between the inlet and the outlet, wherein the flow path directs an input bleed flow diverted from a fluid stream discharged from the compressor, and a phase change material hermetically sealed within the casing. The phase change material is separated from the flow path. The heat absorption device is configured to exchange heat between the phase change material and the input bleed flow to generate an output bleed flow of a different temperature than the input bleed flow and discharge the output bleed flow to a second predefined location different from the first predefined location.
