An electric-motor radiator fan of a motor vehicle has a fan shroud with a motor holder. An electric motor is inserted in the motor holder. A heat shield plate is arranged on the end side of the electric motor. The heat shield plate is placed onto a projection of the motor holder by way of a cut-out, and the heat shield plate is pivoted around the projection, which forms an axis of rotation, in such a way that the heat shield plate is forced at least in sections into at least one holding contour of the motor holder in a positive locking and/or friction-locking manner.

A coated substrate is provided that includes an environmental barrier coating on (e.g., directly on) a surface of a substrate (e.g., a ceramic matrix composite). The environmental barrier coating can include a barrier layer having a refractory material phase and a silicon-containing glass phase. The silicon-containing glass phase may be a continuous phase within the barrier layer (e.g., a breathable grain boundary of the barrier layer), or may be a plurality of discontinuous layers dispersed throughout the refractory material phase. The refractory material phase can include a rare earth silicate material having a rare earth component at a first atomic percent, while the silicon-containing glass phase comprises the rare earth component at a second atomic percent that is less than the first atomic percent. Methods are also provided for forming a barrier layer on a substrate.

A heatshield for a gas turbine engine, includes a main body having a leading edge, a trailing edge, lateral edges, a first surface and a second surface. The first surface being exposed to a hot working gas in use passing through the gas turbine engine. The heatshield having a leading hook and a trailing hook each extending between the lateral edges, the leading hook and the trailing hook extending from the second surface. A stiffening structure extends from the leading hook to the trailing hook and free from direct contact or attachment to the second surface.

A turbocharger according to an embodiment is a turbocharger including a turbine housing for housing a turbine wheel rotary driven by an exhaust gas, a bearing housing for housing a rotational shaft on which the turbine wheel is mounted, the bearing housing being adjacent to the turbine housing, and a wastegate portion including a bypass passage and a valve body, the bypass passage allowing the exhaust gas to bypass the turbine wheel, the valve body being able to adjust a flow rate of the exhaust gas flowing through the bypass passage. In the turbine housing, a scroll passage for supplying the exhaust gas to the turbine wheel is formed by casting, at least on a radially outer side of the turbine wheel. A fastening portion for fastening the turbine housing and the bearing housing is disposed on a radially outer side of the scroll passage.

Methods for repairing a coated part with holes extending therethrough are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method comprises receiving a part where a coating on a first side of the part at least partially obstructs a first opening of a hole on the first side of the part. Measured hole data indicative of a position of a second opening of the hole on a second side of the part opposite the first side is then acquired. Based on the measured hole data, the first opening of the hole is cleared of the coating by laser drilling via the second opening of the hole.

A gas turbine engine includes a shroud ring, a vane ring, and a secondary flow assembly. The shroud ring extends around an associated turbine wheel and includes a carrier segment and a blade track segment comprising ceramic matrix composite materials. The blade track segment and the carrier segment defining a shroud cavity radially therebetween. The vane ring includes a heat shield comprising ceramic matrix composite materials that forms an outer platform, an inner platform, and an airfoil defining a heat shield cavity radially through the heat shield. The secondary flow assembly includes a recirculating flow circuit having a discharge tube and a vane pressurizing tube; and the secondary flow assembly is configured to cool the blade track segment. The flow circuit is further configured to pressurize the heat shield cavity thereby providing a seal against the gases from the primary gas path entering the heat shield cavity.

A turbomachinery stator apparatus includes: a compressor casing including a casing wall defining an arcuate flowpath surface and an opposed backside surface, the flowpath surface defining at least two spaced-apart rotor lands; and a stator vane row of stator vanes disposed inside the compressor casing; wherein the casing wall includes at least one hollow structure; and wherein the casing wall is a single monolithic whole, wherein the stator vanes are integrally formed as part of the monolithic whole.

A rotary assembly is provided that may be operably connected to an engine. The rotary assembly may include a rotary device comprising a turbine wheel, a shaft connected to the turbine wheel, and a case that houses the shaft and the turbine wheel. The turbine wheel may receive exhaust gas from the engine which causes rotation of the turbine wheel and the shaft. The case may include an interior surface that defines a hollow volume in which the turbine wheel and the shaft are located. The case has a radial thickness extending from the interior surface to an exterior surface of the case. The case may include a lattice structure integrated within the radial thickness of the case. The lattice structure may include a repeating three-dimensional array of frame segments connected to one another at junctions and defining interstitial spaces between the frame segments.

A vane arc segment includes an airfoil section, a spar, and a baffle. The spar supports the airfoil section and has a leg that extends in an internal cavity of the airfoil section. The leg is spaced from the airfoil wall such that there is a gap there between. The baffle divides the gap into a plenum space between the leg and the baffle and an impingement space between the baffle and the airfoil wall. The baffle has impingement holes directed toward the airfoil wall that connect the plenum space and the impingement space. The impingement space is of substantially uniform thickness and the plenum space is of non-uniform thickness along a portion of the span length of the airfoil section.

A heat shield for a gas turbine engine has a main body having a first and second surface, the first surface exposed to a hot working gas, a plurality of walls upstanding from the second surface and an impingement plate. The impingement plate is on top of at least one wall and forms a chamber and has an array of impingement holes. At least one pair of divider walls are formed within the chamber and extend between the impingement plate and the second surface. The first divider wall extends from a first wall towards a second wall, the second divider wall extends from the second wall towards the first wall. The first and second divider walls both extend such that there is no clear line of sight in a perpendicular direction to the first divider wall and/or second divider wall and are spaced apart with respect to the perpendicular direction.
