A thrust demand signal is provided to a processor of a gas turbine engine and is modified, according to growth time constants of a rotor and/or a casing of the engine, in order to control the rotational speed or the rate of change of rotational speed of the engine so as to prevent contact between the rotor and the casing.

A gas turbine engine includes a ceramic wall for bounding an engine core gas path. The ceramic wall has a ceramic wall first side that faces the engine core gas path and a ceramic wall second side that faces away from the engine core gas path. There is a metallic wall adjacent the ceramic wall second side. The metallic wall has a metallic wall first side that faces the ceramic wall and a metallic wall second side that faces away from the ceramic wall. The metallic wall and the ceramic wall are spaced apart such that there is a channel there between. There is a seal on the ceramic wall second side, and the metallic wall has at least one cooling hole adjacent the seal for emitting cooling air to cool the seal.

A component for a gas turbine engine. The component includes a body. The body has an exterior surface abutting a flowpath for the flow of a hot combustion gas through the gas turbine engine. Further, the body defines a cooling passageway within the body to supply cool air to the component. The component includes a leading face and a trailing face defining a trench therebetween on the exterior surface. The body defines a plurality of cooling holes extending between the cooling passageway and a plurality of outlets defined in the trench such that the trench is fluidly coupled to the cooling passageway. Additionally, the leading face and trailing face are each tangent to at least one of the plurality of outlets. The trench directs the cool air along a contour of the component.

An assembly adapted for use in a gas turbine engine is disclosed herein. The assembly includes a first component including metallic materials and a second component including ceramic matrix composite materials. A portion of the second component is configured to engage a portion of the first component directly so that the second component is supported in a predetermined position.

Thermal lifting members for blade outer air seal supports of gas turbine engines include a hollow body defining a thermal cavity therein, at least one inlet fluid connector fluidly connected to the thermal cavity configured to supply hot fluid to the thermal cavity from a fluid source, at least one outlet fluid connector fluidly connected to the thermal cavity configured to allow the hot fluid to exit the thermal cavity, and at least one lifting hook configured to engage with a blade outer air seal support, wherein the thermal lifting member is configured to thermally expand outward when hot fluid is passed through the thermal cavity such that during thermal expansion the at least one lifting hook forces the blade outer air seal support to move outward.

An assembly is provided for a turbine engine with an axial centerline. This turbine engine assembly includes a blade outer air seal segment, a linkage, a rocker arm and an actuation device. The linkage is attached to the blade outer air seal segment. The rocker arm includes a first arm and a second arm engaged with the linkage. The actuation device is engaged with the first arm. The actuation device is configured to pivot the rocker arm and thereby radially move the blade outer air seal segment.

A seal structure includes: a first member and a second member disposed so as to face a combustion gas flow passage; a third member disposed on the outer side of the combustion gas flow passage; a heat-resistant coating formed on at least one of a first end face and a second end face, on the side of the face closer to the combustion gas flow passage; and a contact part disposed in the first end face and the second end face, further on the outer side than the heat-resistant coating. When the first member and the second member move relatively toward each other, the contact part restricts the relative movement by coming in contact in a state where a clearance is left between the heat-resistant coating and the face facing the heat-resistant coating.
