An assembly for a turbine engine is provided. This turbine engine assembly includes a shell and a heat shield with a cooling cavity between the shell and the heat shield. The heat shield defines a plurality of cooling apertures and an indentation in a side of the heat shield opposite the cooling cavity. The cooling apertures are fluidly coupled with the cooling cavity. The indentation is configured such that cooling air, directed from a first of the cooling apertures, at least partially circulates against the side of the heat shield.

The invention relates to a mounting assembly with a spherical bearing for mounting a rocket engine and a rocket having such mounting assembly. The spherical bearing includes a spherical bearing base, a spherical retaining ring and a suspension link with a spherical end arranged in a space between the spherical bearing base and the spherical retaining ring. The spherical bearing base is part of an injector head of the rocket engine or is part of a fuel tank, the parts having a spherical shape.

A blower including a housing at least partially defining a chamber, a motor including a drive shaft defining a rotational axis, and an impeller drive by the motor to generate an air flow in the chamber. The blower also includes a coupler operably connected between the drive shaft and the impeller to transmit torque therebetween, the coupler being connected to one of the drive shaft and the impeller and including a plurality of ribs configured to engage the other of the drive shaft and the impeller, each rib defining a rib axis transverse to the rotational axis, each rib axis being arranged tangent to a circle centered on the rotational axis.

A method for smoothing surface roughness within an internal passageway is disclosed. In various embodiments, the method comprises developing a first sphere progression through a length of the internal passageway, each sphere within the first sphere progression having a first sphere diameter greater than or equal to a diameter of the internal passageway; and developing a second sphere progression through the length of the internal passageway, each sphere within the second sphere progression having a second sphere diameter greater than the first sphere diameter, whereby the inner surface of the internal passageway is smoothed, first by the first sphere progression and then by the second sphere progression.

The present invention relates to a device for cooling, using air jets, an external casing of a turbomachine, comprising a housing for supplying air to cooling tubes of said casing, the housing being provided with an attachment device on the external casing. According to the invention, said attachment device comprises two upstream ball joint retention devices which each connect the housing to the external casing.

A rotor assembly includes: a rotor disc; a plurality of rotor blades fixed to the rotor disc and extending radially outward in a radial direction of the rotor disc; and at least one rolling element configured to roll on a curved surface facing inward in the radial direction of the rotor disc.

A variable vane includes a first vane portion and a second vane portion adjacent the first vane portion. The second vane portion includes a trunnion projecting outward from a radial end of the second vane portion. The second vane portion is configured to rotate about a trunnion axis of the trunnion from a first rotational position to a second rotational position.

Assembly for axial turbomachine, in particular for an aircraft turbojet, the assembly comprising: an annular casing with an internal surface (40); an annular row of stator baffles (26) with at least one stator baffle (26) comprising an airfoil (50) which extends radially from a fixing platform (34), the fixing platform (34) being fixed to the casing and having a polygonal outline; characterised in that it further comprises a gasket (80) comprising a frame, the outline of which conforms to the polygonal outline of the fixing platform (34), the frame being in radial contact with the fixing platform (34) and the casing in order to ensure a seal.

A gas turbine engine includes a shroud with an abradable section and a non-abradable section that cooperatively define a shroud surface. The gas turbine engine also includes a rotor that is supported for rotation within the shroud to generate an aft axial fluid flow. The rotor includes a blade with a blade tip that is crowned and that opposes the abradable section and the non-abradable section of the shroud surface. A crown area of the blade tip opposes the abradable section. A casing treatment feature is provided in the non-abradable section of the shroud to oppose the blade tip of the rotor.

A turbomachine includes a low-pressure shaft that drives a fan shaft in rotation by a coupling assembly including a first shaft on which are formed plural first axial grooves, a second shaft on which are formed plural second axial grooves, and a coupling device including rolling elements and an annular cage positioned between the first shaft and the second shaft. The rolling elements are positioned between one of the first axial grooves and one of the second axial grooves to couple in rotation the first and the second shaft. Each first and second groove has a first and a second substantially planar surface inclined with respect to one another and extending along the axis.
