A guide vane ring for a turbomachine minimizes a leakage flow that passes through a recess (11) into which a guide vane disk is inserted. It has a guide vane row having a plurality of guide vanes (20), each having a vane airfoil (24) and a vane disk (21), as well as an inner ring (10) having an inner ring surface (12) facing the plurality of guide vanes. Viewed in the direction (R) of a designated primary flow streaming through the turbomachine, the vane disks (21) have a front and a rear surface region (22a, 22b). In a nominal and/or a maximum open position of the guide vanes, the front and/or the rear surface region (22a, 22b) of at least one of the vane disks has an offset (31a, 31b) from the inner ring surface (12) that is radially disposed (relative to a central axis (X) of the inner ring (10)).

A double rotor for vertical axis turbine includes two single three-vane rotors separated by a horizontal or separation plate, wherein such plate provides two different access areas to the propelling fluid, wherein between each of the three vanes of each of the single rotors it is determined surface continuity attenuated by curves in the fluid flow direction preventing parasitic flows during rotation thereof.

The present invention relates to a turbine engine guide (23) vane (25), with a height (H) extending between a vane root (26) and a vane tip (27) along a radial direction (Z), said vane (25) comprising a succession of five bulge portions along a tangential direction (Y) perpendicular to the radial direction (Z), this succession of bulge portions extending over the whole height (H) of the vane (25), and the convexity of the successive bulge portions being alternately in one direction and in the other. The vane (25) has the advantage of having an eigenfrequency for the first striped vibration mode which is different from the urging frequencies of said vane (25), during the operation of the turbine engine.

A fan assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a fan including a plurality of fan blades. Each fan blade extends radially outwardly from a fan hub to a blade tip. The plurality of blade tips define a fan diameter. A nacelle surrounds the fan and defines a fan inlet upstream of the fan, relative to an airflow direction into the fan. The nacelle has a forwardmost edge defining an inlet length from the forwardmost edge to a leading edge of a fan blade of the plurality of fan blades. A ratio of inlet length to fan diameter is between 0.20 and 0.45. A nacelle inner surface defines a nacelle flowpath. The nacelle flowpath has a convex throat portion and a concave diffusion portion between the throat portion and the leading edge of the fan blade at a bottommost portion of the nacelle.

It is provided with: a variable nozzle mechanism for regulating a flow of exhaust gas to a turbine rotor; a link mechanism for converting reciprocal displacement from an actuator that operates a variable nozzle mechanism into rotational displacement and transmitting the rotational displacement to an inner section of a bearing housing; and an engaging part for engaging an output section of the link mechanism and an input section of the variable nozzle mechanism, and the engaging part is constituted by a pin and a pin insertion slot where the pin is inserted, and a smooth surface is formed around an insertion position of the pin so as to guide a tip of the pin to the insertion position.

An impingement plate adapted for use in a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The plate includes a plurality of holes for directing cooling air. The plate includes a stress relief feature to prevent fatigue cracking at the coupling of the plate to the turbine engine and at the holes.

A turbine rotor blade is additively manufactured and includes an airfoil body with a radially extending chamber for receiving a coolant flow, a tip end at a radial outer end of the airfoil body, and a shank at a radial inner end of the airfoil body. The radially extending chamber extends at least partially into the shank to define a shank inner surface. An integral impingement cooling structure is within the radially extending chamber. The integral impingement cooling structure allows an exterior surface of a hollow body thereof to be uniformly spaced from the airfoil inner surface despite the curvature of the chamber. The turbine rotor blade has impingement cooling throughout the blade.

Aspects of the disclosure generally relate to a turbine center frame for a turbine engine through which a flow path extends. The turbine center frame can include an inner wall radially spaced from an outer wall, with the inner and outer walls extending between an inlet and an outlet, and with the outlet downstream of the inlet with respect to the flow path. A set of circumferentially-spaced airfoils can extend between the inner wall and the outer wall.
