An assembly is provided for a turbine engine. This assembly includes a static structure and an impeller rotor housed within the static structure. The impeller rotor includes a vane structure and a shroud. The vane structure includes a first sidewall, a second sidewall and a plurality of vanes arranged circumferentially about a rotational axis. The vanes include a first vane. The first vane includes a first portion, a second portion and a third portion. The first portion is axially between the first sidewall and the second sidewall. The second portion is radially between the first sidewall and the shroud. The third portion is radially between the second sidewall and the shroud. The shroud circumscribes the vane structure. A gap is formed by and extends between the shroud and the static structure. A dimension of the gap changes as the gap extends along the shroud.

A blower device includes an axial flow fan having blades to blow air, and a fan shroud that includes a cylindrical portion surrounding an outer circumference of the fan at a distance from the outer circumference, and an air guiding portion guiding air drawn by the fan. The fan shroud includes a short end part shorter in distance to the outer circumference of the fan than another part in an outer end portion of the fan shroud, and a protruding end part provided at a position advanced in a rotational direction from the short end part, protruding upstream in a flow of the drawn air more than the fan and protruding outward of the air guiding portion. Accordingly, the blower device which includes the fan shroud capable of reducing rotational noise can be provided.

A compressor (1), or ventilator/anesthesia device with the compressor, includes a housing, a rotatable impeller (6) connected via a drive shaft (4) to an electric motor (5) to deliver gas from an inlet (8), upstream on a suction side (7) through a flow duct (11) to a downstream outlet (10) on a delivery side (9). The compressor impeller is partially enclosed by the housing, as a collection housing (2) on the delivery side, and a cover element (12), on the suction side separated in sections from the compressor impeller by a gap (13). An uncoupling element (15) is arranged, for vibration damping and for at least partial sealing of the housing interior against a surrounding area (16), between the cover element and the collection housing and between a functional component (14) connected at least indirectly to the compressor impeller and/or to the electric motor and the collection housing.

A structural assembly for a fluid-flow machine includes: a main flow path boundary and at least one row of relatively rotating blades with a gap existing between blade ends of the at least one row of blades and the main flow path boundary. At least one secondary flow duct has in the main flow path boundary one opening each at ends spaced apart in the flow direction, such that the secondary flow duct is connected to the main flow path via the two openings. The structural assembly has at least two components connected to one another, i.e. at least one support component and at least one connecting component, where the support component at least partially forms the main flow path boundary and where the connecting component forms or surrounds at least one part-section of the secondary flow duct.

A clearance control assembly for providing clearance control between a blade outer air seal and an airfoil tip of a gas turbine engine includes an outer case, a first blade outer air seal carrier, a blade outer air seal, an actuator, a load-applying member, and a lever. The first blade outer air seal carrier is positioned radially inward of the outer case. The blade outer air seal is positioned radially inward of and mounted to the blade outer air seal carrier. The load-applying member is positioned to be acted upon by the actuator during operation of the actuator. The lever is connected to the case and is operably in contact with the load-applying member and the first blade outer air seal carrier.

A shroud for a compressor is provided. The shroud may include a first annular portion constructed of a first material, a second annular portion coupled to the first annular portion and constructed of a second material, and a first coating disposed on the first annular portion and constructed of a third material. At least one of the first material, the second material, and the third material may be a different material from at least one other of the first material, the second material, and the third material.

An abrasive tip comprises an additive, the additive is configured to prevent adhesion of an organic component from an abradable seal onto an abrasive blade tip.

An abrasive tip comprises an additive layer having an additive; the additive is configured to prevent adhesion of an organic component from an abradable seal onto an abrasive blade tip.

A method of applying an additive to an abrasive coated blade tip comprises applying the additive to the abrasive coated blade tip and wicking the additive into the abrasive coated blade tip, wherein the additive is configured to prevent adhesion of an organic component of an abradable seal onto the abrasive coated blade tip.

An abradable seal comprises an organic matrix composite comprising an additive and an organic component, the additive is configured to prevent adhesion of the organic component onto an abrasive blade tip.
