Disclosed herein is a gas turbine blade. The gas turbine blade includes a turbine blade (33) provided in a turbine, and film cooling elements (100), each including a cooling channel (110) for cooling of the turbine blade (33), an outlet (120) through which cooling air is discharged, and a plurality of ribs (130), wherein the outlet (120) extends from a longitudinally extended end of the cooling channel (110) to an outer surface of the turbine blade (33) and has a width increased from one end of the cooling channel (110) to the outer surface of the turbine blade (33), and the ribs (130) face each other on inner walls of the outlet (120).

In a turbine rotor blade assembly 1 of the present invention, each turbine rotor blade 10 includes a platform 11 having a blade root 12 fixed to a turbine disk 30, a profile 13 rising from the platform 11, and a shroud 14 provided at a top end of the profile 13. The shroud 14 of the present invention includes a first contact end part 15 that comes into contact with an adjacent shroud adjacent to one end side in a circumferential direction, a second contact end part 16 that comes into contact with an another adjacent shroud adjacent to the other end side in the circumferential direction, and a main body part disposed between the first and second contact end parts 15 and 16. One or both of the first and second contact end parts 15 and 16 are lower in rigidity than the main body part.

A blade includes: an airfoil portion having a pressure surface and a suction surface each of which extends between a base end and a tip end along a blade height direction between a leading edge and a trailing edge; and an internal passage passing through an inside of the airfoil portion, the internal passage having a first opening end opening to one of the pressure surface or the suction surface and a second opening end which is positioned closer to the tip end than the first opening end in the blade height direction and opening to a surface of the airfoil portion. When L is a length from the base end to the tip end in the blade height direction, a distance from the base end to the first opening end in the blade height direction is not less than zero and not greater than 0.3 L.

An assembly comprises a first cooling cavity disposed within one or more of a turbine assembly or a combustion chamber of an engine. The first cooling cavity directs cooling air within the one or more of the turbine assembly or the combustion chamber. The assembly comprises a second cooling cavity also disposed within the one or more of the turbine assembly or the combustion chamber. The second cooling cavity receives at least some of the cooling air from the first cooling cavity. A forward facing step nozzle forms a channel that fluidly couples the first cooling cavity with the second cooling cavity. The step nozzle includes steps having elongated first sides and narrow second sides. The elongated first sides of the steps protrude into the channel such that a cross-sectional area of the channel of the step nozzle at the steps is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the channel of the step nozzle outside of the steps.

An airfoil defining a chordwise dimension, a spanwise dimension, a leading edge, a trailing edge, a root, and a tip, is generally provided. The airfoil includes a first material substrate defining a pressure side and a suction side. The first material substrate defines a plurality of discrete volumes extended from at least one of the pressure side or the suction side into the first material substrate. The plurality of discrete volumes is arranged at least partially along the chordwise dimension and a second material substrate different from the first material substrate is defined at least partially within the volume.

An apparatus and method relating to a cooling hole of a component of a turbine engine. The component can include a wall separating the hot gas fluid flow from the cooling fluid flow and having a heated surface along which the hot gas fluid flow flows and a cooled surface facing the cooling fluid flow and at least one cooling hole comprising at least one inlet at the cooled surface, at least one outlet at the heated surface, with the outlet having a modified outlet shape.

Systems and methods for reducing heat exposure of a turbine casing in a gas turbine engine may be provided. The system may include blade track segments. The blade track segments may include a cavity formed at a circumferential end of the blade track segment. The blade track segments may further include an assembly groove configured to provide a clearance for axial insertion of an inter-segment strip seal. An inter-segment strip seal may be axially inserted past the assembly grooves and into the cavity. The inter-segment strip seal may cover a gap between adjacent blade track segments, thus blocking hot, high pressure fluid from contacting the turbine casing.
