A double flow turbojet including: a low pressure compressor; a series of casings downstream of this low pressure compressor to delimit a primary flow path for circulating a primary stream, and including an upstream edge delimiting an inlet opening; a high pressure compressor in the primary flow path; a shroud surrounding the series of casings to delimit a flow path for circulating an intermediate stream, and having an upstream edge delimiting a circular inlet opening situated upstream of the high pressure compressor; a secondary flow path casing surrounding the shroud to delimit a secondary flow path for circulating a secondary stream; an exhaust casing including radial arms collecting the air coming from the intermediate flow path.

A component for a turbine engine may be formed by spraying particulate with a nozzle toward a substrate. The particulate may be deposited to form one or more annular layers and a reinforcing structure. The component may be a closed loop annular component having a reinforcing structure of specific dimensions enabled by the methods described.

An apparatus and method for assembling an inducer assembly for inducing a rotation on an airflow passing within a turbine engine. The inducer assembly can provide a volume of fluid from a compressor section to a turbine section of the engine. The inducer assembly can include the combination of separate segments to form an annular inducer.

A gas turbine engine component comprises a body having a leading edge, a trailing edge, and a radial span. One internal channel in the body provides an upstream supply pressure. Another internal channel in body receives the upstream supply pressure and provides a downstream supply pressure. At least one axial rib separates an internal area adjacent to the trailing edge into a plurality of individual cavities. At least one pressure regulating feature is located at an entrance to at least one individual cavity entrance to control downstream supply pressure to the trailing edge. Exits formed in the trailing edge communicate with an exit pressure. The rib and pressure regulating features cooperate such that the downstream supply pressure mimics the exit pressure along the radial span.

A steam turbine includes a rotor; a casing which houses the rotor; a plurality of rotor blades disposed around the rotor; and a plurality of stationary vanes supported on the casing. The stationary vane includes a vane body portion and an inner race positioned on an inner side of the vane body portion in a radial direction of the rotor. The stationary vanes include a first stationary vane having a through hole formed through the vane body portion. The rotor has a cavity having a concave shape and being formed such that at least a part of the inner race of the first stationary vane is housed in the cavity. The steam turbine includes a steam passage to discharge steam extracted from a space upstream of the first stationary vane in the casing to the cavity from the inner race through the through hole of the first stationary vane.

One or more cooling systems for ventilating a turbine and rotary shaft of a gas turbine system is provided. The gas turbine system includes a gas turbine engine and a turbine exhaust collector in separate enclosures. A first cooling system includes an educator that sucks exhaust gas through a diffuser and directs it out of the turbine exhaust collector enclosure based on suction pressure created from the high velocity of exhaust gas. A second cooling system include struts that enable the exhaust gas to flow from the diffusers to a ventilation flow stack. A third cooling system includes exhaust gas sucked from an opening to a top duct based on suction pressure created from the rotation of the rotary shaft disposed about a coupling. A guideway associated with the third cooling system also directs the exhaust gas to flow to the top duct.

A mandrel for a molding process includes a first portion and a second portion that form a mandrel having a channel between the first and second portions. At least one locking pin is configured to urge the first and second portions away from each other to establish a gap in response to inserting the locking pin into the channel along a respective end of the mandrel. A molding apparatus and method of forming a matrix composite component are also disclosed.
