Abstract: A first stage vane array of a high pressure turbine that may be for a geared turbofan engine includes a plurality of airfoils circumferentially spaced from one-another and orientated about an engine axis. Each airfoil has a leading edge and a trailing edge with the trailing edge being circumferentially separated by the next adjacent trailing edge by a pitch distance. The leading a trailing edges of each one of the plurality of airfoils are axially separated by an axial chord length. A pitch-to-chord ratio of the pitch distance over the axial chord length is equal to or greater than 1.7.

Abstract: A platform includes a platform body. The platform body has an airfoil support surface, an axially extending base surface opposite the airfoil support surface, and a leading edge. The leading edge includes an upstream extending flange with a raised portion and a trough portion downstream of and radially inward from the raised portion. The raised portion and the trough portion are for holding a vortex of fluid flow. The upstream extending flange includes a converging surface connecting the upstream extending flange to the base surface. The converging surface converges in a direction toward the axially extending base surface and is at an angle relative to the base surface.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an airfoil having a tip wall that joins outer spanwise ends of a suction sidewall and a pressure sidewall and including a tip rib extending chordwise along a pressure side of said tip wall. The tip wall includes a tip shelf disposed at a junction between said pressure sidewall and said tip rib. A tip leakage control channel at an outer surface of said tip wall, wherein said tip leakage control channel is between first and second tip leakage control vanes contiguous with a suction side surface of said tip rib, said tip leakage control channel extending toward said trailing edge while extending toward said suction sidewall. An air seal is radially outward of said tip wall and positioned to minimize leakage at said tip wall.

Abstract: An airfoil array is disclosed. The airfoil array may include an endwall, and a plurality of airfoils radially projecting from the endwall. Each airfoil may have a first side and an opposite second side extending axially in chord between a leading edge and a trailing edge. The airfoils may be circumferentially spaced apart on the endwall thereby defining a plurality of flow passages between adjacent airfoils. The airfoil array may further include a convex profiled region extending from the endwall near the leading edge of at least one of said plurality of airfoils, and a concave profiled region in the endwall near a middle of at least one of said plurality of flow passages.

Abstract: An airfoil stage of a turbine engine includes an upstream airfoil assembly, a downstream airfoil assembly in rotational relationship to the upstream airfoil assembly and a rim seal assembly integrated therebetween. The rim seal assembly may include a sloped downstream portion of a platform of the upstream airfoil assembly, an upstream segment of a platform of the downstream airfoil assembly and a nub that projects radially outward from the upstream segment. The downstream portion and the upstream segment are spaced from one-another defining a cooling cavity therebetween for the flow of cooling air. The portion and segment overlap axially such that the nub is axially aligned to the downstream portion for improved cooling effectiveness and a reduction of core airflow into the cooling cavity.
