A seal assembly for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a seal that has an elongated seal body having a seal face that bounds a gas path and an opposed impingement face. The seal body defines an internal cavity extending in a circumferential direction between opposed mate faces and extending in a radial direction between walls of the seal body defining the seal and impingement faces. A baffle divides the internal cavity into at least a first region and a second region. The first region has a first section extending transversely from a second section. The first section has a component in the radial direction, and the second section has a component in an axial direction such that the second region is defined between the baffle and the walls of the seal body defining the seal face. A method of sealing is also disclosed.

An aerofoil component defines an in use leading edge and a trailing edge. The leading edge has at least one serration defining an apex and a nadir. The leading edge has a generally chordwise extending slot located at the nadir of each serration.

A moving blade for a wheel of an aircraft turbine engine, including an aerodynamic aerofoil and an outer heel defining the aerofoil. The heel includes a platform and a first lip that projects from the platform. The first lip is inclined upstream and peripherally along an axis of elongation. The heel includes a row of ribs that are arranged at a distance from each other. The row of ribs extends along the axis of elongation and from the platform up to the first lip. The ribs are arranged upstream of the first lip in such a way as to generate turbulence upstream of first lip.

A component stage for a turbomachine includes a component section. The component section includes a flowpath surface at least partially exposed to a core air flowpath defined by the turbomachine, when the component stage is installed in the turbomachine. The component further includes a plurality of sequentially arranged riblets on the flowpath surface, the plurality of sequentially arranged riblets customized for an anticipated location of the flowpath surface within the turbomachine by defining one or both of a non-uniform geometry or a non-uniform spacing.

A tip shroud includes a pair of opposed, axially extending wings configured to couple to an airfoil at a radially outer end thereof. The tip shroud also includes a tip rail extending radially from the pair of opposed, axially extending wings. Tip shroud surface profiles may be of the downstream and/or upstream side of the tip rail, a leading Z-notch of the tip shroud, and/or a downstream radially inner surface of a wing. The surface profiles may have a nominal profile substantially in accordance with at least part of Cartesian coordinate values of X and Y, and perhaps Z and a thickness, set forth in a respective table. The radially inner surface of the wing may define a protrusion extending along the radially outer end of the airfoil, the suction side fillet, and a radial inner surface of the wing to an axial edge of the wing.

An engine pod for a gas turbine engine which includes a pod wall having an inside and an outside. The pod wall includes a fixed downstream portion and a displaceable upstream portion which is displaceable in the axial direction between a first upstream position and a second downstream position. At its downstream end facing the fixed portion, the upstream portion forms a radially outer rear edge and axially spaced therefrom a radially inner rear edge, with a recess in between. It is provided that adjacent to the recess, an air-permeable structure is formed in the upstream portion which is intended and configured, in the first upstream position of the displaceable portion, to conduct air flowing in the region of the recess to the inside of the displaceable portion. According to a further aspect of the invention, the axial position of the radially inner rear edge varies in the circumferential direction.

A gas turbine engine rotor having an axis, comprising: a body about the axis having an inner surface, a seat having an outer seat edge at a first radial location surrounded by the inner surface at a second radial location, a lip along the inner surface having an inner lip edge spaced axially away from the seat to define a gap, the lip at a rated axial location between the inner lip edge and the seat facing toward the seat at a normal angle; a damper in the gap having first and second damper surfaces, the first damper surface adjacent the seat; and a split ring in the gap adjacent the second damper surface, having an outer ring edge spaced from the inner surface, engaging the lip at the rated axial location and resiliently expandable against the lip deflects the split ring to load the damper against the seat.

Turbine and compressor casing/housing abradable component embodiments for turbine engines, have abradable surfaces with asymmetric forward and aft ridge surface area density. The forward ridges have greater surface area density than the aft ridges to compensate for greater ridge erosion in the forward zone during engine operation and reduce blade tip wear in the aft zone. Some abradable component embodiments increase forward zone ridge surface area density by incorporating wider ridges than those in the aft zone.

An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This aircraft propulsion system assembly includes a thrust reverser system. The thrust reverser system includes a cascade structure and a scoop. The cascade structure is configured with a plurality of flow passages. Each of the flow passages extends through the cascade structure. The flow passages include a first flow passage. The scoop is configured to direct fluid into at least the first flow passage. The scoop includes a serrated leading edge.

A fan containment system arranged to be fitted around an array of radially extending fan blades mounted on a hub in an axial gas turbine engine. Each fan blade has a respective tip. The system includes: a cylindrical fan case including a hook projecting in a radially inward direction and positioned axially forward of the radial array of fan blades; a fan track liner disposed on the radially inner surface of the fan case; and a damaging tool which projects radially inwards from the fan case towards the tips. The damaging tool has a tip radially outward of the fan blade tips. The damaging tool is configured that in the event that one of the fan blades is released from the hub, the tip of the damaging tool damages the fan blade tip of the released fan blade to promote penetration of the fan blade into the fan track liner.
