An inter-compressor case for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The inter-compressor case comprises: an outer casing and an inner casing radially spaced apart relative to a longitudinal axis; a gas path extending from a plurality of radial inlets arranged in a circumferentially spaced apart array around the outer casing to an annular outlet defined by an axially extending downstream portion of the outer casing and an axially extending downstream portion of the inner casing; a plurality of struts having a gas path surface extending across the gas path between the outer casing and the inner casing; and a plurality of flow separators extending from the adjacent radial inlets. The flow separators have trailing edges disposed upstream of the annular outlet and include a plurality of full length flow separators and a plurality of truncated flow separators.

A twin-vaned nozzle ring for a turbine nozzle of a turbocharger nozzle ring is made by assembling the nozzle ring from three separately formed parts. A center part includes a first ring of circumferentially spaced first vanes and a second ring of circumferentially spaced second vanes, the first and second rings being axially spaced and integrally joined to each other. The first vanes are circumferentially offset from the second vanes, and exits from the first vane passages are radially aligned with and circumferentially interleaved with exits from the second vane passages. First and second side walls are provided as separate parts. Finally, the first side wall is joined to a distal or outer face of the first ring, and the second side wall is joined to a distal face of the second ring to complete the assembly.

A diffuser-deswirler for a gas turbine engine is provided. The diffuser-deswirler includes an inner shell and an outer shell spaced apart and configured for receiving a flow of compressed air from a compressor of a gas turbine engine. A plurality of vanes extend between the inner shell and the outer shell to define a plurality of fluid passageways and a splitter extends along the circumferential direction between adjacent vanes to split the flow of compressed air passing through the each fluid passageway. All of these components are manufactured as a single monolithic piece and are configured for diffusing and deswirling compressor air before passing it to a combustor for an improved combustion process.

A core engine article includes a combustor liner defining a combustion chamber therein and a turbine nozzle. The combustor liner includes a plurality of injector ports, and the plurality of injector ports have a shape that tapers to a corner on a forward side of the injector ports. The turbine nozzle includes a plurality of airfoils. The combustor liner and turbine nozzle are integral with one another. A method of making a core engine article is also disclosed.

The gas turbine has a plurality of inlet guide vanes each having a blade having a leading edge, a trailing edge, a span extending along the leading edge, and pivot members at opposite ends of the leading edge, and being pivotally mounted across the radial-to-axial intake via the pivot members, the pivot axis extending axially across a radial portion of the radial-to-axial intake. The plurality of inlet guide vanes include a plurality of first inlet guide vanes, and a plurality of second inlet guide vanes, the second inlet guide vanes having a trailing edge recess differing from the corresponding portion of the first inlet guide vanes. During operation, when the inlet guide vanes are pivoted past a given angle toward the tangential orientation, a radial flow of gas is allowed through the trailing edge recesses to avoid or impede vortex whistle.
