A gas turbine engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a rotatable shaft and a cover substantially covering an end of the rotatable shaft. The cover includes a passageway fluidly coupled from outside the shaft to inside the shaft. The cover further includes a fin configured to prevent oil from entering the passageway.

An interspatial blocker for a thrust reverser system of a turbofan engine, and a thrust reverser system and a turbofan engine incorporating the same. The interspatial blocker includes a first and second flap that rotate from a stored position to a blocking position, and a leading-edge structure rotatably coupling the first flap to the second flap. The leading-edge structure is set up to be installed in a fan nacelle of a turbofan engine in a substantially radial orientation such that the first flap rotates in a first direction about a first axis extending in a substantially radial direction from the stored position to the blocking position, and such that the second flap rotates in a second direction about a second axis extending in the substantially radial direction from the stored position to the blocking position, with the first direction being opposite to the second direction.

A method is provided during which an aircraft powerplant is provided. The aircraft powerplant includes a combustor and a water recovery system. The water recovery system includes a condenser and a reservoir. Fuel is combusted within the combustor to provide combustion products. Water is extracted from the combustion products using the condenser. The water recovery system is operated in one of a plurality of modes based on likelihood of contrail formation. The modes include a first mode and a second mode, where the water is collected within the reservoir during the first mode, and where the water passes through the water recovery system during the second mode.

The fluid line segment can have a body having an inlet, an outlet, and a gas path extending between the inlet and the outlet, a containment cavity extending between the gas path and a cavity bottom, the containment cavity in fluid communication with the gas path, a projection protruding from the cavity bottom of the containment cavity towards the gas path, an orifice defined in the projection, and an evacuation passage extending from the orifice, across the projection and leading outside the body, the evacuation passage being in fluid communication with the containment cavity and the gas path via the orifice.

An air turbine starter that includes a housing. The housing can circumscribe a turbine coupled that is coupled to a gear train in a gear box via a drive shaft. A primary air flow path is defined between a primary inlet and a primary outlet. Air in the primary air flow path can flow into a secondary air flow path or rotate the turbine, that converts energy from the air flow to rotational mechanical energy. Air in the secondary air flow path can pass through at least a first cavity and first passage before rejoining the primary air flow or joining ambient air.

The invention relates to an axial fan, having: a fan hub which is rotatable about a centre axis and has a bottom wall and an annularly circumferential side wall, a plurality of fan blades, which protrude from the annularly circumferential side wall of the fan hub, wherein the fan hub has a plurality of outlet openings for letting out gaseous, liquid and/or solid accumulations from the interior of the fan hub to the outside of the fan hub, wherein the plurality of passage openings are provided on the annularly circumferential side wall of the fan hub.

The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, an actuator apparatus includes an output member configured to actuate between a first positional configuration and a second positional configuration, a source fluid reservoir, a fluid velocity resistor configured to provide a predetermined resistance to fluid flow, a fluid velocity fuse configured to flow fluid flows having a first predetermined range of fluid velocities and to block fluid flows having second predetermined range of fluid velocities, and a fluid actuator assembly configured to urge fluid flow from the source fluid reservoir through the fluid velocity resistor and the fluid velocity fuse based on actuation of the output member.

A dual trip manifold assembly (TMA) includes an isolation valve assembly having a first valve configured to receive a flow of fluid from a hydraulic system fluid supply. The first valve is configured to channel the flow of fluid to at least one hydraulic circuit. The isolation valve assembly also includes a second valve configured to receive the flow of fluid from the at least one hydraulic circuit. The second valve is further configured to channel the fluid flow to a trip header. The first valve and the second valve are synchronized to each other such that rotation of one valve causes a substantially similar rotation in the other valve.

A turbofan engine that comprises a primary flow channel inside of which a primary flow flows through a gas generator during operation, a secondary flow channel inside of which a secondary flow is guided past the gas generator during operation, and an oil separator of a lube oil system that has a pipeline for exhausting breather air, wherein the pipeline forms a pipeline end. It is provided that the pipeline end is arranged inside the secondary flow channel, and is provided and configured for the purpose of discharging breather air directly from the pipeline end into the secondary flow channel.
