    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for electrical connectivity to high temperature film sensor devices (e.g., temperature sensor devices). More particularly, the present disclosure provides for high temperature, thin film sensor devices (e.g., temperature sensor devices) having connection of wires and cabling from the cold side to the thin film sensor on the hot side. The disclosure provides assemblies and methods for that electrical connection to the leads or traces of the thin film sensor device (e.g., thin film temperature sensor device such as a thermocouple or a resistance temperature detector device) at the hot-cold barrier that exists in high temperature components (e.g., high temperature components in aero turbine engine applications). The assemblies and methods of the disclosure can be applied to any thin film device (e.g., sensor devices, such as, for example, strain gauges, heat flux sensors, etc.) that can be applied to the surface of a high temperature component.

    Abstract: A system for a gas turbine engine includes an engine control system. The engine control system includes a processor in communication with a non-transitory memory storing instructions, which instructions when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: obtain a current engine installation configuration for the gas turbine engine, determine a normalized value of the engine parameter for an uninstalled gas turbine engine based on the current engine installation configuration and one or more of a normalized engine power (SHPN) of the gas turbine engine, an airspeed, or an altitude, determine a fully deteriorated engine (FDE) value of the engine parameter using the normalized value of the engine parameter, determine a current value of the engine parameter for the gas turbine engine, and determine the engine operating margin for the engine parameter based on the FDE value of the engine parameter and the current value of the engine parameter.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, components, and methods for visual creep inspection of rotating components, such as those in a gas turbine. A component is provided with an external surface and an axis of rotation. The external surface has a circumference and a plurality of three dimensional reference marks forming a reference pattern along the circumference. An optical data capture device generates a data signal based on the plurality of three dimensional reference marks. A data analysis system processes the data signal to calculate a deviation in spacing of the reference pattern along the circumference and determines a strain or creep measurement.

    Abstract: The oil level sensor is associated with a tank containing oil and comprises a float movable along guide means and which can float on the oil of the tank, so as to move with the oil level, a permanent magnet movable with the float, and an electronic card provided with magnetic switches sensitive to said magnet. The guide means of the spherical float are positioned about the float and the contacts thereof with said float are limited to three substantially linear zones.
