Integral sealing members for blades retained within a rotatable annular outer drum rotor in a turbomachine
A blade for a turbomachine includes a blade root portion for securing the blade to a rotatable annular outer drum rotor. The blade root portion includes one or more radial retention features for radially retaining each of the blade root portions within the rotatable annular outer drum rotor. Further, at least one of the radial retention feature(s) includes at least one sealing member integrated therewith.
Turbine blade with blade tip ejector
A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine. The turbine blade includes an airfoil having a tip cavity. The tip cavity has a floor bounded by a wall. A pocket opening is formed in the wall proximate a trailing edge of the turbine blade. A passageway communicates cooling medium from an internal cooling circuit to a cooling hole formed in part through the floor and in part through the trailing edge.
METHOD FOR COATING A COMPONENT
The present invention relates to a method for coating a component, wherein the component has a first and a second surface, and wherein the first and the second surface adjoin each other at an edge, in which method i) first of all, the edge between the first and the second surface is rounded, and ii) subsequently, a coating is applied to the first surface.
Cooling assembly for a turbine assembly
A cooling assembly comprises a coolant source chamber inside an airfoil that directs coolant inside the airfoil that extends between a hub end and a tip end that includes a tip body and tip rail along a radial length. A first body cooling chamber and a second body cooling chamber are disposed inside the tip body. The second body cooling chamber is positioned between the tip end and the first body cooling chamber. At least one of the first or second body cooling chambers are fluidly coupled with the coolant source chamber. The coolant source chamber directs the coolant into the first or second body cooling chambers. A rail cooling chamber disposed inside of the tip rail is fluidly coupled with the first or second body cooling chambers. The first or second body cooling chambers directs coolant out of the body cooling chambers and into the rail cooling chamber.
Component with cooling passage for a turbine engine
An apparatus and method for an engine component for a turbine engine having a working airflow separated into a cooling airflow and a combustion airflow. The engine component including a wall defining an interior and having an outer surface. A tip wall spanning first and second sides of the wall to close the interior. A tip rail extending from the tip wall and having an inner tip rail surface, which in combination with the tip wall, at least partially bounds a region defining a plenum. A rim formed in at least one of the outer surface and inner tip rail surface.
ROTOR BLADE ARRANGEMENT FOR A TURBOMACHINE
The present invention relates to a rotor blade arrangement for a turbomachine, with a rotor blade which has a sealing tip radially on the outside, and with a seal arrangement, wherein the seal arrangement forms a radially inwardly open cavity, in which the sealing tip is arranged, to which end the seal arrangement has a first sealing element, namely a first seal carrier with a first run-in coating, and a second sealing element, wherein the first run-in coating delimits the cavity radially on the outside, and the second sealing element delimits the cavity in an axial direction, and wherein the first and the second sealing element are assembled.
