A low-pressure compressor for an axial-flow turbomachine, such as a jet engine, includes an annular row of vanes and a between-vanes passage with a connecting surface that links the pressure surface of a first vane to the suction surface of a second vane of the row. The connecting surface includes a main protuberance which includes a first elevation and a second elevation that are spaced apart from one another.

A fluid machine has: first and second walls; a gaspath defined between the first wall and the second wall; a rotor having blades rotatable about the central axis; and a tandem having: a first row of first vanes having first airfoils including first leading edges, first trailing edges, first pressure sides and first suction sides opposed the first pressure sides, and a second row of second vanes downstream of the first vanes and having second airfoils including second leading edges, second trailing edges, second pressure sides and second suction sides opposed the second pressure sides, the first vanes being circumferentially offset from the second vanes; and depressions defined in the first wall, a depression of the depressions located circumferentially between a pressure side of the first pressure sides and a suction side of the second suction sides, the depressions axially overlapping the first airfoils and the second airfoils.

A turbine stator blade (21) includes a pressure side (21P) extending in a radial direction intersecting a flowing direction of steam and facing upstream in the flowing direction. A slit (5) capturing droplets generated by liquefaction of the steam is formed on a downstream side of the pressure side (21P). A fine uneven region (6), which guides the droplets attached to the pressure side (21P) in the radial direction such that the droplets are moved toward the slit (5) and from upstream toward downstream, is formed in a further upstream position than the slit (5). The fine uneven region (6) has a flow resistance to the droplets gradually increasing from inward to outward in the radial direction.

A gas turbine engine component includes an exterior pressure side with a plurality of cooling holes located in the exterior pressure side. A relief cut surrounds at least one of the plurality of cooling holes.

An airfoil for a gas turbine engine is made from ceramic matrix composite materials. The airfoil has an inner surface that defines a cooling cavity in the body and an outer surface that defines a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure side, and a suction side of the body. The airfoil is formed with a hollow tube that extends through the body to define a cooling passage that extends from the cooling cavity through the airfoil to provide fluid communication between the cooling cavity and a gas path environment surrounding the airfoil.

A turbine nozzle includes an airfoil shape. The airfoil shape may have a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table I. The Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values from 0% to 100% convertible to dimensional distances in inches by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a height of the airfoil in inches. The X and Y values, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The airfoil profile sections at Z distances may be joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

A gas turbine engine component according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an external wall including adjacent bounding pedestals that extend from an external wall surface to establish a cooling passage, and including a common pedestal situated between the adjacent bounding pedestals to establish a first branched section and a second branched section of the cooling passage that join together at a merged section of the cooling passage. A method of fabricating a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.

A turbine nozzle for a turbine includes: an airfoil having a shape having a nominal profile substantially in accordance with at least a portion of Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in TABLE I. The Cartesian coordinate values are non-dimensional values of from 0% to 100% convertible to distances by multiplying the values by a height of the airfoil expressed in units of distance. The X and Y values are connected by smooth continuing arcs to define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z along at least a portion of the airfoil, and the profile sections at the Z distances are joined smoothly with one another to form the nominal profile. A trailing edge profile for a turbine nozzle is also disclosed.
