Abstract: Disclosed is a flutter damper, including a chamber having an internal space, a movable diaphragm disposed at least partially within the chamber, the diaphragm separating the chamber into a first chamber and a second chamber, the second chamber forming an acoustic volume, wherein a size of the acoustic volume configures the chamber for peak acoustical energy absorption at a frequency range that is associated with one or more fan flutter modes, and a biasing member that moves the diaphragm responsive to a signal from an aircraft or engine electronic control (EEC) unit, wherein movement of the diaphragm increases or reduces the size of the acoustic volume of the second chamber.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine component has a cooling hole with a metering section. The metering section includes a convex surface and a concave surface, with a first arcuate channel connecting an end of the convex surface and an end of the concave surface. The end of the convex surface and the end of the concave surface define a dimension that is smaller than a diameter of the arcuate channel.

Abstract: A repair system for gas turbine engine components includes a computer system configured to receive a set of measured parameters for each gas turbine engine component in a plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components, and determine a variation model based on the set of measured parameters wherein each of the gas turbine engine components is an as-run component and has been exposed to a substantially identical general wear pattern. The computer system includes at least one simulated engine model. The simulated engine model is configured to determine a predicted operation of each gas turbine engine component in the plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components. A correlation system is configured to correlate variations in the set of parameters for each of the gas turbine engine components in the plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components with a set of the predicted operations of each gas turbine engine component in the plurality of substantially identical gas turbine engine components, thereby generating a predictive model based on the variations. A repair module is configured to generate a repair formula based on the predictive model. The repair formula is configured to receive a set of measured parameters of an as-run gas turbine engine component and determine a suggested repair capable of repairing the as-run gas turbine engine component.

Abstract: A method for qualifying a gas turbine engine component includes creating a first set of substantially identical gas turbine engine components via a uniform manufacturing procedure, determining a set of as-manufactured parameters of each gas turbine engine component in the first set, and determining a variance model of the first set. The variance model includes a representative parameter profile, which includes a plurality of component parameter profiles. The sum of each of the component parameter profiles is the representative parameter profile. The method also includes determining at least one predicted response models based at least in part on the variance model, identifying as-manufactured parameters of a second engine component, applying the as-manufactured parameters of the second engine component to the at least one predicted response models, thereby generating a predicted response output, and qualifying the second engine component for usage in at least one gas turbine engine corresponding to the at least one predicted response model.

Abstract: A component for a gas turbine engine includes a gas path wall having a first surface and a second surface and a cooling hole extending through the gas path wall from the first surface to the second surface. The cooling hole includes an inlet portion having an inlet at the first surface, an outlet portion having an outlet at the second surface, and a transition defined between the inlet and the outlet. The inlet portion converges in a first direction from the inlet to the transition and diverges in a second direction from the inlet to the transition. The outlet portion diverges at least in one of the first and second directions from the transition to the outlet.

Abstract: A thermal management system for a geared architecture of a gas turbine engine includes an evaporator portion located at the geared architecture and configured to exchange thermal energy with the geared architecture via boiling of a volume of heat transfer fluid flowing therethrough and a condenser portion located at a fan bypass flowpath of the gas turbine engine to reject thermal energy from the volume of heat transfer fluid into the fan bypass flowpath. One or more fluid pathways extend from the evaporator portion to the condenser portion to convey the volume of heat transfer fluid therebetween.
