A compressor is provided with: an impeller a housing configured to rotatably house the impeller and having an intake passage for introducing a gas to the impeller from outside the housing, a scroll passage for guiding the gas having passed through the impeller to the outside, and a bypass passage connecting the intake passage and the scroll passage so as to bypass the impeller; and a bypass valve having a valve body disposed in the bypass passage and capable of opening and closing the bypass passage. The valve body is configured to, in a fully closed state, separate the bypass passage into an inlet-side passage having a communication port communicating with the scroll passage and an outlet-side passage communicating with the intake passage. An inlet-side passage wall surface which defines the inlet-side passage includes at least an upstream passage wall surface portion connected to an upstream end of the communication port in a cross-sectional view of the housing taken along an axis of the impeller. The upstream passage wall surface portion is configured such that an angle between the upstream passage wall surface portion and an upstream scroll wall surface of a scroll passage wall surface which defines the scroll passage connected to the upstream end is less than 90 degrees.

A rotor for a gas turbine engine has: a first rotor disk; an interstage flange that extends from the first rotor disk to a flange end portion that has an axial end surface and first radial outer and inner surfaces; a circumferential groove, formed in the flange end portion and extending from the axial end surface toward the first rotor disk; radial outer and inner slots formed in the first radial outer and inner surfaces along the circumferential groove and extend through the first radial outer and inner surfaces; and a valve member disposed within the circumferential groove and is secured within the circumferential groove when the flange end portion is connected to a second rotor disk, wherein the valve member deflects from rotor rotational speeds to seal or unseal the radial outer slot.

The present disclosure relates to a turbo blower capable of operating in a surge area and, more particularly, to a turbo blower capable of operating in a surge area, the turbo blower increasing consistency of performance thereof and efficiency by preventing suspension thereof due to a temporarily generated surge by operating even in a surge area for a predetermined time in addition to a normal area in which the turbo blower normally operates.

There is provided a diffuser for a turbine, comprising: a support configured to mount to a turbine housing; a diffuser body configured to receive fluid from an outlet of the turbine, the diffuser body defining a longitudinal axis and having a perimeter with a length measured in a plane normal to the longitudinal axis; and a bridge configured to connect the support to the diffuser body, wherein the connection between the bridge and the diffuser body is confined to a continuous portion of the perimeter of the diffuser body that is not more than around 50% of the total length of the perimeter of the diffuser body.

An assembly is provided for a turbine engine with an axial centerline. This assembly includes a turbine engine structure and a valve assembly. The turbine engine structure includes an outer duct wall, an inner duct wall, a first flow path and a second flow path. The inner duct wall is radially inward of the outer duct wall. The first flow path is radially inward of the inner duct wall. The second flow path is radially outward of the inner duct wall and is radially inward of the outer duct wall. The valve assembly includes a valve element and a valve actuator. The valve element is configured to regulate flow of fluid between the first flow path and the second flow path. The valve actuator is configured to move the valve element. The valve actuator is positioned entirely radially outward of the outer duct wall.

A turbofan having a nacelle comprising a slider mobile in translation between an advanced and a retracted position to open a window between a duct and the exterior, a plurality of blades, each one mobile in rotation on the slider between a stowed and a deployed position, where the blades are split into groups, where each group comprises a first blade, and a maneuvering system moving each blade and comprising a cam integral with the first blade of one of the groups and having a tooth, a groove receiving the tooth, a first transmission system transmitting the movement of the first blade bearing the cam to a first blade of each other group, and, for each group, a second transmission system transmitting the movement of the blade that bears the cam or is moved by the first transmission system to each of the other blades of the group.

A bleed valve includes a housing with an inlet coupled to an outlet by a duct, a guide tube with an orifice fixed in the housing between the inlet and the outlet, a piston, and baffle. The piston is slideably supported on the guide tube and is movable between an open and a closed position, the duct fluidly coupling the inlet and outlet in the open position, the duct fluidly separating the inlet and outlet in the closed position. The orifice fluidly couples the inlet and outlet in the open and closed positions to move piston between the open and closed positions according to differential pressure between the bleed valve inlet and outlet. The baffle is slideably supported by the guide tube to set the differential pressure at which the piston moves between the open and closed positions. Gas turbines and differential pressure adjustment methods are also described.

An airtight seal configured to be mounted on a first turbomachine member, such as a door of a bleed valve, and to bear against a second member of the turbomachine, such as a hub of an intermediate casing, the airtight seal including a retaining device for mounting the seal on the first member; a sealing lip ensuring airtightness through contact and intended to bear against the second member; an anti-return device for the sealing lip reinforcing the rigidity of the airtight seal at the base of the sealing lip.
