An airfoil cooling system may include an airfoil that defines a first cooling chamber and a second cooling chamber. The first cooling chamber may be configured to receive a first cooling airflow from a first fluid source and the second cooling chamber may be configured to receive a second cooling airflow from a second fluid source that is different from the first fluid source. The airfoil may be a vane of a gas turbine engine. For example, the vane may be a first vane of a plurality of vanes of a turbine section of the gas turbine engine. The first cooling chamber may be a leading edge chamber of the first vane and the second cooling chamber may be an aft chamber of the first vane that is positioned aft of the leading edge chamber.

A multi-material vane is provided for a gas turbine engine. This vane includes an airfoil extending along a chamber line between a leading edge and a trailing edge. The airfoil extends along a span line between an inner end and an outer end. The airfoil extends laterally between a first side and a second side. The airfoil includes a base section, a first side section and a second side section. The base section defines at least a portion of the trailing edge of the airfoil. The base section is laterally between and connected to the first side section and the second side section. The first side section defines at least a portion of the first side of the airfoil. The second side section defines at least a portion of the second side of the airfoil.

A multi-material vane includes an airfoil extending longitudinally between a leading edge and a trailing edge. The airfoil extends spanwise between an inner end and an outer end. The airfoil extends laterally between a first side and a second side. The airfoil includes a base section, a first side section, a second side section and a sheath. The base section extends along the span line between the inner end and the outer end. The base section is laterally between the first side section and the second side section. The first side section is connected to the base section and partially forms the first side of the airfoil. The second side section is connected to the base section and partially forms the second side of the airfoil. The sheath at least partially forming an edge of the airfoil. The edge is the leading edge or the trailing edge of the airfoil.

A core duct assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a core duct including an outer and an inner wall, the outer wall having an interior surface; a gas flow path member extending across the gas flow path at least partly between the inner and outer walls, the rotor blade having a radial span extending from a blade platform to a blade tip, wherein an upstream wall axis is defined as an axis tangential to a point on a first portion of the interior surface of the outer wall of the core duct extending downstream from the gas flow path member, the upstream wall axis lying in a longitudinal plane of the gas turbine engine containing the rotational axis of the engine, and wherein the upstream wall axis intersects the rotor blade at a point spaced radially inward from the blade tip of the rotor blade.

An aerofoil component (10) defining an in use leading edge (16) and a trailing edge (18), the leading edge (16) comprising at least one serration (22) defining a sawtooth profile projecting in a generally upstream direction, each serration (22) comprising a plurality of rectangular-wave projections (26) extending in an upstream chordwise direction from the sawtooth profile.

A compressor of a gas turbine engine includes an impeller having a plurality of impeller blades. The compressor includes a diffuser downstream from the impeller that has a plurality of diffuser blades. Each diffuser blade extends from a hub to a shroud in a spanwise direction, and a leading edge of each diffuser blade is spaced apart from an impeller trailing edge of each of the plurality of impeller blades by a vaneless gap. Each diffuser blade includes a cutback region that extends from proximate the leading edge toward a trailing edge. The cutback region reduces a thickness of each of the diffuser blades such that a throat area defined between adjacent diffuser blades increases in the spanwise direction from the hub to the shroud and the vaneless gap increases in the spanwise direction from the hub to the shroud.

A lost core mold component comprises a first leg and a second leg with a plurality of crossover members connecting the first and second legs. The plurality of crossover members includes outermost crossover members spaced from each other. Adjacent ends of each of the first and second legs, and second crossover members are spaced closer to each other than are the outermost crossover members. Central crossover members extend between the first and second leg and between the second crossover members. The outermost crossover members extend for a first cross-sectional area. The second crossover members extend for a second cross-sectional area and the central crossover members extend for a third cross-sectional area. The first cross-sectional area is greater than the second cross-sectional area. The second cross-sectional area is greater than the third cross-sectional area. A gas turbine engine and component are also disclosed.

Flow control devices and structures designed and configured to improve the performance of a turbomachine. Exemplary flow control devices may include various flow guiding channels, ribs, diffuser passage-width reductions, and other treatments and may be located on one or both of a shroud and hub side of a machine to redirect, guide, or otherwise influence portions of a turbomachine flow field to thereby improve the performance of the machine.

A component has an edge extending in a first direction. The component includes a filler disposed in the component. The filler has at least a first portion and a second portion. The first portion extends in a second direction from the edge into the component. The second portion of the filler extends from the first portion in a third direction. The second direction is substantially orthogonal to the first direction.

An airfoil includes first and second endwalls and an airfoil section having a dual airfoil profile. The airfoil section includes a double wall that has an outer wall that defines a primary leading end of the dual airfoil profile and an inner wall spaced from the outer wall. The outer wall is trapped between the first and second endwalls in mortise and tenon joints, and the inner wall defines a secondary leading end of the dual airfoil profile.
