A sealing washer for use in a rotor of a gas turbine, sealing being brought about on one side of the sealing washer by an approximately radially oriented bearing face and on the other side by way of a supporting face which is oriented in an inclined manner with respect to the rotor axis. The sealing washer is of split configuration and has at least one washer segment with a circumferential washer section. At the dividing point, a pressing section and a triangular section overlap along a dividing face. Here, the dividing face intersects the bearing face and makes sealing both with the pressing section and with the triangular section possible. In order to also make sealing on the supporting face with the pressing section and the triangular section possible, the triangular section is reduced to at most 0.3 times the cross-sectional area of the washer section.

There is provided a seal assembly comprising: a first component and a second component spaced apart from the first component so as to define a passage for the transfer of fluid from an inlet of the seal assembly to an outlet of the seal assembly, wherein the first component comprises a concavity at least partially defining the passage, and wherein no part of the second component extends into the portion of the passage bounded by the concavity.

A turbomachine blade formed of a hollow airfoil having a leading edge and a trailing edge opposed to each other and connected by an intrados wall and an extrados wall each extending along a radial axis of the blade, between a blade root and a blade tip, and including a cooling circuit supplied with air and delivering air jets ensuring through multiple perforations of the cooling circuit an impingement cooling of the inner surface of the airfoil, the cooling circuit includes superimposed cooling channels over the height of the blade, each integrated into the inner surface of the airfoil while matching its contour, the multiple perforations being drilled in the cooling channels terminating in a purge cavity of the airfoil are able to ensure a purge of the air having impinged the inner surface of the airfoil after its passage through the perforations.

A seal for a rotor is provided. The rotor defines an axial direction, a circumferential direction, and a radial direction. The seal includes a first flexible element coupled to the rotor. The first flexible element extends in a first direction that is within forty five degrees of the axial direction.

A diffuser assembly includes a casing at a compressor aft end; an inner barrel member radially inward of the casing; and an array of radial flow splitters extending between the inner barrel member and the casing. Each radial flow splitter includes a leading edge facing into a flow of air, a trailing end wall opposite the leading edge, a pair of side walls extending between the leading edge and the trailing end wall, and an axis extending through the leading edge and the trailing end wall. A width of each radial flow splitter increases from the leading edge to the trailing end wall. The side walls diverge away from the axis in a downstream direction corresponding to the flow of air. Optionally, the side walls also diverge away from the axis in a radial direction between the inner barrel member and the casing.

An impingement cooling structure is provided. The impingement cooling structure includes a flow channel formed between a first wall and a second wall facing the first wall, a plurality of impingement cooling holes disposed in the first wall such that the plurality of impingement cooling holes are spaced apart from each other along the flow channel, and a flow diverter convexly protruding from a surface of the second wall in each space between injection axes of the plurality of impingement cooling holes.

Airfoil assemblies for gas turbine engines include an airfoil body and a leading edge baffle installed within a leading edge cavity of the airfoil body. The airfoil body includes a plurality of radially extending rails configured to engage with the baffle and define radially extending channels therebetween. First and second forward radially extending rails are segmented in the radial direction and a showerhead radial channel is defined along the leading edge. Pressure and suction side radial flow channels are defined between an interior surface of the airfoil body, an exterior surface of the baffle, and radially extending rails. An aft channel is defined between an interior surface of the airfoil body along pressure and suction side walls, an interior rib, exterior surfaces of the baffle, and the radially extending rails.

Baffles for installation within airfoils include a baffle body defining a feed cavity and extending between inner and outer diameter ends. A forward standoff shelf is formed along an exterior surface of the baffle and defined by a depression, bend, or channel in a material of the baffle body extending between the inner and outer diameter ends. The forward standoff shelf is configured to engage with a forward rail of the airfoil body, and an aft standoff shelf is formed along an exterior surface of the baffle body and configured to engage with an aft rail of the airfoil body. A surface of the baffle body between the forward standoff shelf and the aft standoff shelf defines a side channel surface extending in a radial direction along the baffle body between the outer diameter end and the inner diameter end.

An airfoil includes a base, a tip, a suction side face, and a pressure side face. The pressure side face includes an outer surface, an inner surface located between the outer surface and the suction side face, and a transition surface that extends between and interconnects the outer surface and the inner surface so as to form a pocket in the airfoil.
