A turbine housing can include a bearing housing end and a treatment unit end; a volute wall that defines a volute; a wall that defines at least a portion of a turbine wheel space that defines a turbine wheel space axis and a turbine wheel space diameter, where the wall extends to an axial peak to define an extended space with an extended space outlet having an extended space outlet dimension; and an outlet wall that defines an outlet space with a treatment unit end outlet having an outlet dimension, where the extended space is disposed at least in part axially between the turbine wheel space and the outlet space to increase axial velocity uniformity at the treatment unit end outlet.

Provided is a transition piece including: a first flow passage group formed by arranging a plurality of intra-wall flow passages extending within a plate constituting the transition piece from a side near a gas turbine to a side near a combustor liner; a second flow passage group located on a side near the combustor liner with respect to the first flow passage group; and a plurality of dilution holes that penetrate the plate, and establish communication between a compressed air main flow passage and a combustion gas flow passage, each intra-wall flow passage of the first flow passage group and the second flow passage group having an inlet facing the compressed air main flow passage at an end portion on a side near the gas turbine, and having an outlet facing the combustion gas flow passage at an end portion on a side near the combustor liner, a dilution hole being located nearer to the inlet of an intra-wall flow passage of the second flow passage group than to the outlet of the intra-wall flow passage of the second flow passage group in each of spaces between the intra-wall flow passages adjacent to each other in the second flow passage group.

A combustor includes a liner having an outlet end to pass combustion gas and a liner flange protruding outward from the outlet end; a transition piece to discharge combustion gas from the liner to a turbine, the transition piece having an inlet end for coupling to the outlet end of the liner and a transition piece flange protruding outward from the inlet end to face the liner flange; and a first elastic support installed on the liner flange to protrude toward the transition piece flange. A force applied from the transition piece elastically deforms an elastic arch of the first elastic support, which includes a movable support that is spaced apart from the liner flange if the force applied from the transition piece does not primarily deform the elastic arch. An auxiliary elastic support installed inside the first elastic support elastically deforms if the force secondarily deforms the elastic arch.

The present invention relates to a method for smoothing a surface of a component, in which a component is placed in a liquid-solids mixture; a relative movement is produced between the liquid-solids mixture and the component; thus there is a flow of the liquid-solids mixture along the surface; wherein there is provided in the liquid-solids mixture a guide surface, along which the liquid-solids mixture flows, wherein a directional component toward the surface is imposed on the flow.

Methods for creating an aircraft turbomachine vane using additive manufacturing include additively manufacturing a vane on a bed of powder using selective laser melting, the additive manufacturing being performed on a support plate so that first or second circumferential edges are manufactured first directly on the support plate, at least one temporary support member being produced simultaneously with the first or second edges. The methods also include removing the temporary support member by breaking its connection with the leading or trailing edge with a tool that is engaged in at least one recess thereof.

A cylinder head assembly for an internal combustion engine includes a cast cylinder head, a turbocharger housing including a compressor housing and turbine housing integrally cast with the cylinder head, and a turbocharger cartridge assembly configured to be inserted into the turbocharger housing and including a shaft coupled between a compressor wheel and a turbine wheel. A compressor cover is configured to couple to the compressor housing and define a compressor inlet and at least partially define a compressor diffuser passage. The cartridge assembly includes a housing having a diffuser flange extending outwardly therefrom, the diffuser flange including a front surface and an opposite contoured volute surface. The compressor diffuser passage is at least partially defined by the compressor cover and the diffuser flange front surface. A compressor volute is at least partially defined by the diffuser flange contoured volute surface and a contoured inner surface of the compressor housing.

A clearance control assembly for a gas turbine engine that defines an axial direction and a radial direction and includes a stage of rotor blades and a shroud hanger. The assembly includes a case configured to be positioned outward along the radial direction from the stage of rotor blades when installed in the gas turbine engine. The case is further configured to be engaged with the shroud hanger at a first location when installed in the gas turbine engine. The assembly also includes a baffle positioned outward along the radial direction from the case to define a chamber therebetween. The baffle has a forward end and an aft end. The forward end of the baffle is engaged with the case to form a first seal and the aft end of the baffle is engaged with the case to form a second seal. The baffle, the case, or both define an inlet to allow a fluid to enter the chamber and the case defines an outlet to allow the fluid to exit the chamber.
