A core engine article includes a combustor liner defining a combustion chamber therein and a turbine nozzle. The combustor liner includes a plurality of injector ports, and the plurality of injector ports have a shape that tapers to a corner on a forward side of the injector ports. The turbine nozzle includes a plurality of airfoils. The combustor liner and turbine nozzle are integral with one another. A method of making a core engine article is also disclosed.

A hot fairing structure for a pre-diffuser includes a ring-strut-ring structure that comprises a multiple of hollow struts and a multiple of inlets to a respective diffusion passage, one of the multiple of inlets formed between each one of the multiple of hollow struts located between two diffusion passages.

In a flange cooling structure of a gas turbine engine, one of a first flange and a second flange is a high pressure flange that faces a first region, and the other of the first flange and the second flange is a low pressure flange that faces a second region. A contact surface of the high pressure flange or a contact surface of the low pressure flange includes a cooling groove that communicates with the first region and the second region.

A hybrid three-layer system is presented. The hybrid three-layer system includes a two-layer composite system and an additively manufactured third layer comprising a lattice structure. The composite layer system includes a metallic substrate, a structured surface, and a thermal protection system. The structured surface may be additively manufactured onto the metallic substrate and includes structured surface features formed to project above the metallic substrate. Each of the structured surface features are separated from adjacent structured surface features by grooves. The thermal protection coating may be thermally sprayed onto the structured surface and is bonded to each of the structured surface features. The lattice structure is in contact with a surface of the metallic substrate of the composite layer system.

A gas turbine combustion duct includes a duct body and a fluid intake hole. The duct body includes a duct wall defining a plenum for routing a flow of combustion products from a combustor downstream through the gas turbine combustion duct to a turbine section. The fluid intake hole extends from an outward-facing surface to an inward-facing surface through the duct wall for receiving an outside fluid flow into the plenum, and is laterally circumscribed about its entire periphery by a lateral-facing surface. The lateral-facing surface includes a curved surface portion along a shortest path from the inward-facing surface to the outward-facing surface and is free of angled surface transitions along the shortest path between the inward-facing surface and the outward-facing surface. The fluid intake hole is wider at the outward-facing surface than at the inward-facing surface. A boss may define the fluid intake hole and the lateral-facing surface.

A method of machining includes removing material from a target region of a ceramic component to form a blind opening in the ceramic component via removing a bulk of the material by a laser machining operation and then removing a remainder of the material by a mechanical machining operation.

An instrumentation assembly configured to measure properties of an engine exhaust stream is disclosed in this paper. The instrumentation assembly may include an outer support ring that extends around a central axis, an inner support ring arranged radially inward of the outer support ring around the central axis, and a plurality of instrumentation rake assemblies. The plurality of instrumentation rake assemblies extends from the outer support ring to the inner support ring across an annular passageway defined between the outer support ring and the inner support ring configured to carry the engine exhaust stream.

An assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This assembly includes a combustor and a fuel conduit. The combustor includes a combustor wall that forms a peripheral boundary of a combustion chamber within the combustor. The fuel conduit extends along and is formed integral with the combustor wall. The fuel conduit is disposed outside of the combustion chamber.

An assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This gas turbine engine assembly includes a stationary engine structure. The stationary engine structure includes a diffuser, a combustor, an engine case and a plenum. The combustor is disposed within the plenum. The engine case forms a peripheral boundary of the plenum. A gas path extends sequentially through the diffuser, the plenum and the combustor. A first section of the stationary engine structure is formed as a first monolithic body. The first section includes the diffuser and the combustor. A second section of the stationary structure is formed as a second monolithic body. The second section is configured as or otherwise includes the engine case.

A gas turbine engine component has a component body configured to be positioned within a flow path of a gas turbine engine having an external pressure, and wherein the component body includes at least one internal cavity having an internal pressure. At least one inlet opening is formed in an outer surface of the component body to direct hot exhaust gas flow into the at least one internal cavity, and there is at least one outlet from the internal cavity. The internal pressure is less than an inlet external pressure at the inlet opening and the internal pressure is greater than an outlet external pressure at the outlet opening to controllably ingest hot exhaust gas via the inlet opening and expel the hot exhaust gas via the outlet opening to maintain a laminar boundary layer along the outer surface of the component body.
