The wall (30) comprises an inner surface (38) delimiting an primary guide path for the flow of the compressor, and an external surface (40) radially opposite the inner surface and delimiting the internal chamber (48) of the tank (46).

Various methods and systems are provided for a radial turbocharger. In one example, the turbocharger comprises a turbine case housing a turbine wheel and a compressor case housing a compressor wheel, the turbine case including a vaneless turbine nozzle integrated into the turbine case, a bearing case surrounding a shaft connecting the turbine wheel to the compressor wheel and arranged between the turbine case and compressor case, a plurality of long bolts arranged around a circumference of the turbine case, and a plurality of slots arranged around a circumference of the turbine case, a slot length of each slot extending in a radial direction and adapted to receive a dowel pin having a diameter smaller than the slot length, where each dowel pin, via a corresponding slot, couples the bearing case to the turbine case.

A blade assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a rotor, a stator, a seal plate, and a sealing member. The rotor includes a rotor blade and a rotor disc. The rotor disc defines a bucket groove which receives a cooling fluid from a first cavity upstream of the rotor. The sealing member includes a control arm. The sealing member and the rotor define a flow cavity therebetween in fluid communication with an aperture of the seal plate. The flow cavity receives the cooling fluid flowing through the bucket groove and the aperture. The control arm and the seal plate define a gap therebetween fluidly communicating the flow cavity with a second cavity between the stator and the rotor. The control arm deflects at least a portion of the cooling fluid entering the flow cavity.

An airfoil vane includes an airfoil section which includes an outer wall that defines an internal cavity. A baffle is situated in the internal cavity. The baffle includes a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion which is bonded to the leading edge portion at a joint. The leading edge portion and the trailing edge portion define an internal cavity therewithin. Both the leading edge portion and the trailing edge portion include a plurality of cooling holes which are configured to provide cooling air to the airfoil outer wall. The trailing edge portion is formed of sheet metal and the leading edge portion is formed of non-sheet-metal. A method of making a baffle for a vane arc segment and a method of assembling a ceramic matrix composite airfoil vane are also disclosed.

A gas turbine engine is provided. The gas turbine engine includes a turbomachine having a low speed spool and a high speed spool; a rotor assembly coupled to the low speed spool; an electric machine rotatable with the low speed spool for extracting power from the low speed spool, for adding power to the low speed spool, or both; and an inter-spool clutch positioned between the low speed spool and the high speed spool for selectively coupling the low speed spool to the high speed spool.

A method and system for aligning a component within a turbine casing, and a related turbine casing. In a top-on position, a location of an optical target and another, vertically spaced optical target on the joint flange are measured. After removing at least the upper casing, the optical targets' locations are measured again, and the locations of a pair of reference points on an upper surface of the horizontal joint flange are measured. A prediction offset value is calculated for the component support position in the top-on position based on the locations. The prediction offset value may include a vertical adjustment based, in part, on a translation of a triangular spatial relationship of a number of the reference points and/or a tilt angle, a horizontal adjustment, and a horizontal joint flange surface distortion adjustment. Support position is adjusted by the prediction offset value to improve alignment.

A fuel distribution device is provided wherein an axis is defined. The device comprises a body housing a distribution path for fuel; the distribution path has one inlet and a plurality of outlets; the inlet is located on the external surface of the body at an end of an inlet branch of the distribution path; the plurality of outlets are located on the external surface of the body at ends of a corresponding plurality of outlet branches of the distribution path; the inlet branch and the outlet branches are fluidly connected to a distribution space; and the outlet branches are arranged radially.

The invention relates to a method for handling a rectifier of a turbojet of an aircraft, the rectifier having an axis defining the asymmetry thereof, said method comprising a step of placing the rectifier on the rollers of a supporting structure, the structure and the rollers thereof being arranged such that the axis of the rectifier is inclined at a non-null acute angle in relation to the horizontal, and a step of controlling, maintaining, assembling, handling, storing, deburring and/or cleaning the rectifier, during which the rectifier is pivoted about the axis thereof. The invention also relates to a trolley for handling a rectifier for an axial turbojet, said trolley comprising at least two of the lower rollers that have axes inclined in relation to the horizontal of said angle and at least one upper roller, the axis of which is inclined in relation to the vertical of said angle.

A sound-absorbing panel to be used affixed to a jet engine of an aircraft, provided with: a resin core layer having a first surface, a second surface disposed on the side opposite from the first surface, and multiple partitions extending between the first surface and second surface so as to partition multiple cells; a resin first skin layer laminated on the first surface of the core layer; and a resin second skin layer laminated on the second surface of the core layer. The first skin layer is disposed so as to face the external space while in use, and has multiple through-holes for providing communication between internal spaces of the multiple cells and external space faced by the first skin layer. The core layer has openings for providing communication between the internal spaces of the multiple cells and external space of the core layer.
