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 rotary machine assembly for a turbomachine, such as a rotor, having a rotor wheel where a plurality of circumferentially spaced female dovetail slots are obtained. The rotary machine assembly also comprises a plurality of blades. Between each blade and the adjacent one there is an interface angle. Each blade comprises a male dovetail, configured to fit with a corresponding female dovetail slot of the rotor wheel along an insertion direction. The female dovetail slots are shaped so that the insertion direction of each male dovetail is convergent with the rotation axis of the rotor wheel, so as to form with it an insertion angle, so as to insert gradually all the male dovetails into the female dovetail slots and packing them also gradually. A method for assembling a rotary machine assembly, which does not require any specific tool, is also disclosed.

An internal structure of a primary exhaust duct of a turbomachine, the internal structure comprising a primary wall comprising a surface of revolution about a longitudinal axis, allowing the air to pass through orifices and forming an internal surface of the primary exhaust duct, an interior skin comprising a surface of revolution about the longitudinal axis, arranged inside the primary wall, an upstream flange and a downstream flange which attach the interior skin to the interior of the primary wall, at least one separator which is attached to the interior skin and which extends from the interior skin towards the primary wall, the, or each, separator extends in a plane generally parallel to the longitudinal axis, between the two flanges, and the, or each, separator is not attached to the primary wall.

A method for manufacturing a mechanical reducer for an aircraft turbomachine including a central pinion, an outer crown, N planet pinions, where N≥3, each planet pinion including a first stage meshing with the central pinion, and a second stage meshing with the outer crown, the method including the assembly marking, wherein N teeth of the central pinion are marked, and N pairs of teeth of the first stage of each planet pinion are marked, the N planet pinions each being marked identically, and the assembly of the mechanical reducer, so that the teeth of the pairs of marked teeth of the first stage of each planet pinion are disposed on either side of a marked tooth of the central pinion.

The present invention provides an airfoil 110 with the squealer tip cooling system 50 for a turbine blade 100 at the blade tip 113, wherein the squealer tip cooling system 50 comprises a cooling passage 170 arranged within a squealer tip 117, wherein the cooling passage 170 at least partly extends toward a terminal end 74 of the squealer tip 117, and a pocket 172 at a lateral surface 75, 76 of the squealer tip 117, open externally and extending inwardly at least partly across the cooling passage 170. The pocket 172 intersects the cooling passage 170 and the pocket 172 comprises an impingement surface 70 facing the cooling passage 170, on which a cooling medium expelled through the cooling passage 170 impinges before being discharged externally through the pocket 172.

In an assembly method for a turbine, measured shape data is acquired by measuring a shape for each of a plurality of casing components in a state in which the plurality of casing components are not fastened to each other. self-weighted state shape data, which is shape data when self-weight is applied, is created for each of the plurality of casing components. A reference shape model is corrected based on a difference between the measured shape data of a target measurement part and the self-weighted state shape data of the target measurement part. By using the corrected shape model, fastened state shape data, which is shape data in a state in which the plurality of casing components are fastened to each other, is estimated for each of the plurality of casing components.

The invention concerns an inter-blade profile (14) for a turbine runner blade, said inter-blade profile (14) comprising a profile (16), and a plug (18), forming a basis of the profile (16) and intended for being inserted into a corresponding hole (21) made in a blade.
