A turbine component includes a body having a pair of spaced walls, with at least one of the walls for facing a fluid flow when mounted in a gas turbine engine. There are a plurality of wall cooling passages having a generally boomerang shape such that a peak apex is spaced from the wall and an indent apex is adjacent to the wall, with the plurality of wall cooling passages having interior sides extending from the peak apex toward the wall to define a corner. Outer sides extend from the corners with a component away from the wall and to the indent apex. A gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a refrigerant compressor, including: a stator; a rotor configured to rotate with respect to the stator; and at least one step seal between the rotor and the stator, wherein the step seal includes a first tooth and a second tooth extending from the rotor toward the stator, wherein a downstream surface of the first tooth and an upstream surface of the second tooth are arranged at an angle relative to one another, wherein the angle is less than 90°.

An aircraft turbine engine includes a gas generator having a longitudinal axis (A), a fan located at an upstream end of the gas generator and configured to turn about said axis, and an electric machine of generally annular shape. The electric machine is coaxially mounted downstream of the fan and has a rotor coupled to rotate with the fan. The electric machine further includes a stator connected to an electronic power circuit by at least one rigid electrically-conductive bar.

A turbine blade having cooling holes formed therein and a turbine including the same are provided. The turbine blade includes an airfoil having a leading edge and a trailing edge formed thereon and a cooling passage defined for flow of a cooling fluid therethrough, and a cooling hole configured to communicate between the cooling passage and outside in the airfoil and having an inlet and an outlet, wherein the cooling hole includes an expanded portion and a grooved portion formed in the outlet, the grooved portion being recessed from the expanded portion toward the trailing edge.

A method and apparatus for generating a wave in a body of water may include altering a flow of water as it is urged through an inlet, contoured passage, and outlet. For example, a primary flow of water may be altered so that one or more secondary flows are created at angles to the direction of primary flow.

An acoustic damper includes a low porosity layer section and a housing. The low porosity layer section is formed in a liner of a gas turbine combustor and has an arrangement of elongated generally S-shaped slots formed therein. The housing has a plurality of feed apertures. The housing is coupled to the low porosity layer section thereby defining a cavity such that air outside the housing is configured to flow through the apertures and through the elongated generally S-shaped slots in the low porosity layer section, thereby transforming acoustic energy into thermal energy and aiding in providing an acoustic dampening effect for the gas turbine combustor during operation thereof.

A seal device is configured so that seal properties can be held over a long period of time. A seal device 1 inserted into and disposed between grooves each formed at first and second components which are adjacent to each other and collectively form a housing structure includes a first seal member inserted into the groove of the first component, a second seal member inserted into the groove of the second component, and a partitioning member extending between the first and second seal members to partition a space between the grooves of the first and second components and arranged movably relative to the first and second seal members.

An electric module for an aircraft turbomachine includes an electric machine stator having an annular shape around an axis (A) and being configured to surround a rotor of the electric machine, and an annular support element of the stator. The support element includes an outer annular surface configured to be swept over by a gas stream (F) from the turbomachine with a view to conductively cooling the stator.

A mounting member for a sensor for a turbomachine having an axis is disclosed. The mounting member includes a body configured to mount to a portion of a circumferential interior surface of a casing of the turbomachine. An opening extends through a radially inner surface of the body, and is configured to position the sensor facing radially inward relative to the axis. A passage in the body extends longitudinally through the body to route a communications lead of the sensor circumferentially relative to the circumferential interior surface of the casing.
