Impingement Cooling System for A Gas Turbine Engine
The present disclosure is directed to an impingement cooling system for a gas turbine engine having a gas turbine engine component and an insert positioned within the gas turbine engine component. The insert includes an insert body that defines an inner cavity therein, a first impingement aperture, a first heat exchanger inlet aperture, and a first heat exchanger outlet aperture. A first baffle extends outwardly from an outer surface of the insert body. The first baffle, the gas turbine engine component, and the insert body define a first and a second cooling chamber therebetween. The first impingement aperture fluidly couples the inner cavity of the insert body and the first cooling chamber. A first heat exchanger wall couples to an inner surface of the insert body. The first heat exchanger wall and the insert body define a first heat exchanger chamber therebetween.
METHOD FOR REPAIRING A FAN CASING
A method for repairing a fan casing in which the inner surface is damaged, includes attaching a reinforcement element to the fan casing, the reinforcement element being attached to the outer surface of the fan casing opposite the damage.
PRESSURE VESSEL AND TURBINE

In one example, a system for an engine comprises a turbocharger turbine including a nozzle ring, the nozzle ring including a plurality of stationary vanes, each vane of the plurality of stationary vanes including a plurality of injection ports arranged at an outer surface of the vane, and a gas supply system to supply variable gas flow to and out of the plurality of injection ports.
FLOATING, NON-CONTACT SEAL WITH ROUNDED EDGE
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a seal comprising: a support ring, at least one beam coupled to the support ring, and a shoe coupled to the at least one beam, the shoe having an axial shoe face that includes a rounded edge that is configured to contact a support structure face of a support structure when the seal is subjected to a load that is equal to or greater than a first threshold.
Gas-turbine combustion chamber with impingement-cooled bolts of the combustion chamber tiles
The present invention relates to a gas-turbine combustion chamber having a combustion chamber wall, to which combustion chamber tiles are fastened by means of bolts, where in the bolt fastening area in the combustion chamber wall at least one impingement cooling hole is provided, the center axis of which is inclined to the center axis of the bolt and intersects a transition area between the bolt and the combustion chamber tile.
ANTI-BIRD STRIKE PROTECTION NET FOR AIRCRAFT JET ENGINE
An anti-bird strike protection net for aircraft jet engine, comprising fixed circular truncated cone, conical protection net body, connection section, and double helix electrical heating wire, wherein the fixed circular truncated cone is secured on the cowl inlet's outside of the aircraft jet engine via which the conical protection net body is connected to the jet engine with the connection section: hinge, catches, and gas springs; The conical protection net body comprises the base of the conical protection net body, the conical support frame, the net which covers the outside of the conical support frame; the double helix electrical heating wire spirally surrounding the surface of the net is used as deicing device.
This invention is an aftermarket add-on device and can be an original integration part as jet engine manufacturing. It's simple and easy to be secured on the cowl inlet without changing the structure of the aircraft jet engine.
Method for real-time simultaneous and calibrated additive and subtractive manufacturing
A method for large-scale, real-time simultaneous additive and subtractive manufacturing is described. The apparatus used in the method includes a build unit and a machining mechanism that are attached to a positioning mechanism, a rotating platform, and a rotary encoder attached to the rotating platform. The method involves rotating the build platform; determining the rotational speed; growing the object and the build wall through repetitive cycles of moving the build unit(s) over and substantially parallel to multiple build areas within the build platform to deposit a layer of powder at each build area, leveling the powder, and irradiating the powder to form a fused additive layer at each build area; machining the object being manufactured; and cutting and removing the build wall. The irradiation parameters are calibrated based on the determined rotational speed.
ACOUSTIC TREATMENT PANEL FOR A TURBOJET ENGINE
An acoustic absorption cell including a bottom wall extending in a plane orthogonal to an axial direction, an enclosure including a first axial end secured to the bottom wall, and an acoustic horn extending inside the enclosure between a first opening of the horn and a second opening of the horn smaller than the first opening, the horn being secured to a second axial end of the enclosure opposite the first axial end, and the first and second openings of the horn each extending in a plane orthogonal to the axial direction. The horn includes at least one retaining arm protruding from the horn inside the enclosure and fixed to the bottom wall or to the enclosure.
Cooled airfoil trailing edge and method of cooling the airfoil trailing edge
An airfoil and method of cooling a airfoil including a leading edge, a trailing edge, a suction side, a pressure side and at least one internal cooling channel configured to convey a cooling fluid, is provided. A plurality of trailing edge bleed slots are in fluid communication with the at least one internal cooling channel, wherein a downstream edge of the pressure side of the airfoil lies upstream of a downstream edge of the suction side to expose the plurality of trailing edge bleed slots proximate to the trailing edge of the airfoil. The at least one internal cooling channel is configured to supply the cooling fluid from a source of cooling fluid towards the plurality of trailing edge bleed slots. A plurality of obstruction features are disposed within the at least one internal cooling channel and at a downstream edge of the remaining pressure side. The one or more obstruction features are configured having a predefined substantially polygon shape, to distribute a flow of the cooling fluid and provide distributed cooling to the plurality of trailing edge bleed slots.
