摘要: A combustor includes an annular dome and a plurality of dampers integral with the annular dome. Each of the plurality of dampers includes an adjustable damper cover and a damper portion defining a cavity having a volume. The damper cover is mounted to the damper portion integrated with the annular dome and is movable to adjust the volume of the cavity to adjust a frequency of each of the plurality of dampers to reduce an acoustic amplitude of the combustor.

摘要: A method of removing heat from an electrical machine located in a gas turbine engine at least partially inward of a core airflow path in a radial direction, the electrical machine comprising an outer electrical machine stator and an inner electrical machine rotor is provided. The method includes directing a liquid coolant radially inward past the outer electrical machine stator and toward an inner electrical machine rotor using a coolant passageway. The liquid coolant is directed onto and/or through one or both of the inner electrical machine rotor and a rotor support thereby removing heat from the inner electrical machine rotor.
