摘要: A seal arc segment includes a wall that defines radially inner and outer sides, forward and aft ends, and first and second circumferential sides. The wall includes a CMC ply lay-up of a radially inner-most CMC ply on the inner side, a radially outer-most CMC ply on the radially outer side, and radially intermediate CMC plies therebetween. At least one of the radially intermediate CMC plies has cutout voids that define cooling channels in the wall. The cooling channels are bound on lateral channel sides by the at least one of the radially intermediate CMC plies, bound on a radially inner channel side by a first adjacent one of the CMC plies, and bound on a radially outer channel side by a second, different adjacent one of the CMC plies. The radially outer-most CMC ply includes at least one inlet hole connected to the cooling channels for providing cooling air.

摘要: A gas turbine engine includes a turbine section that has a retainer ring, a first vane that bears against the retainer ring to prevent movement of the first vane in a first axial direction, a second vane axially spaced from the first vane, and a blade axially between the first vane and the second vane. A blade outer air seal is situated radially outwardly of the blade. The blade outer air seal includes a ceramic matrix composite body that defines a core gaspath side that faces the blade, a forward end, an aft end, and circumferential sides. There is a spring seal at the aft end of the blade outer air seal that seals against the second vane. The spring seal provides a preload that biases the blade outer air seal against the first vane and thereby biases the first vane against the retainer ring.

摘要: A seal member is disposed between a rotor and a stator to provide a seal between the rotor and the stator. The seal member comprises: a rotary-side member fixed to a surface of the rotor opposing the stator; a fixed-side member fixed to the stator and facing the rotary-side member; and a first fin and a second fin which are disposed on one of the rotary-side member and the fixed-side member, the first fin protruding on the opposing surface side, the second fin being disposed on a lower pressure side in a rotating axis direction relative to the first fin and protruding on the opposing surface side. The thickness, in the rotating axis direction, of the second fin at the root thereof is greater than the thickness, in the rotating axis direction, of the first fin at the root thereof.

摘要: An exo-bearing system for a turbomachine is operable to improve aerodynamic efficiency and mechanical limits of rotor blades for fans, compressors, turbines, pumps and the like. The exo-bearing system is positioned between the tips of the blades and a surrounding structural housing. The exo-bearing system eliminates the air gap that is formed in prior art turbomachines and causes the blades to load in compression during operation which increases mechanical operability of the blades.

摘要: A nozzle includes an endwall connected to an airfoil at one of a tip and root of the airfoil. The endwall includes a first and second side slash faces at respective circumferential edges thereof. The endwall also includes an inner surface extending between the first and second side slash faces. The inner surface includes a first planar surface portion adjacent to the first side slash face, a second planar surface portion adjacent to the second side slash face, and an arcuate surface portion extending between the first and second planar surface portions. The planar surface portions reduce a chute height by reducing hot gas path curvature locally along the side slash faces, which reduces working fluid ingestion between endwalls of the adjacent nozzles. The planar surface portions can be applied to an inner and/or an outer endwall of a nozzle.
