The present disclosure relates to an engine system (1) for a vehicle (100), comprising, an internal combustion engine (10), a lubrication system (20) arranged to lubricate the internal combustion engine (10) and a first lubrication pump (21) arranged to supply lubricant to the lubrication system (20). The first lubrication pump (21) is configured to be powered by an auxiliary power source (40), wherein the lubrication system (20) is further arranged to supply lubricant to at least one auxiliary component (30, 31) of the engine system (1) which requires to be lubricated when in use, and wherein the lubrication system (20) comprises at least one valve (23, 25) for selectively shutting off lubricant supply to the at least one auxiliary component (30, 31). The present disclosure also relates to a vehicle (100), to a method for controlling lubricant supply to an auxiliary component (30, 31) and to a control unit (70).

Turbine wastegate having a fluidic sealing arrangement and a method of testing thereof
11598251 · 2023-03-07 · ·

A turbine comprising: a turbine housing, a wastegate passage connecting the turbine inlet and the turbine outlet; and a wastegate valve comprising a movable valve member. The wastegate valve has an open state in which a first gas may pass between a turbine inlet a turbine outlet via the wastegate passage and a closed state in which the valve member substantially prevents said first gas from passing between the turbine inlet and the turbine outlet. The valve member is mounted to an actuation member that passes through a bore of the turbine housing. The actuation member is movable to move the wastegate valve between the open and closed states. The turbine comprises a fluid conduit configured to deliver a second gas to the bore to form a fluidic seal between the bore and the actuation member to substantially prevent the passage of said first gas along the bore.

Turbine snap in spring seal

In one aspect, a sealing assembly for a turbine of a gas turbine engine includes a first turbine component having a first surface and a second surface positioned aft of the first surface. The first turbine component, in turn, defines a slot positioned between the first surface and the second surface. Furthermore, the sealing assembly includes a second turbine component positioned aft of the first turbine component such that the first component and the second component define a gap therebetween. Additionally, the sealing assembly includes a seal configured to seal the gap defined between the first turbine component and the second turbine component. The seal includes a first portion positioned within the slot such that the first portion exerts a sealing force on the second surface of the first component. Moreover, the seal further includes a second portion that exerts a sealing force on the second component.

Tangential on-board injector

The gas turbine engine includes a casing assembly located proximate a turbine section of the gas turbine engine, and a tangential on-board injector (TOBI) having a body defining a plurality of air passages extending in a radial direction, the plurality of air passages circumferentially distributed and directing cooling air toward a turbine rotor of the turbine section of the gas turbine engine. An interference fit is provided between a face of the body and a face of a member of the casing assembly, the interference fit defining a fastener-free engagement between the bearing housing and the TOBI to prevent relative movement between the member of the casing and the TOBI.
