A turbine blade comprising an airfoil defined by a concave shaped pressure side outer wall and a convex shaped suction side outer wall that connect along leading and trailing edges and, therebetween, form a radially extending chamber for receiving the flow of a coolant. The turbine blade may further include: a rib configuration that partitions the chamber into radially extending flow passages that include a first flow passage and a second flow passage; and a crossover passage that fluidly connects an inlet formed in the first flow passage to an outlet formed in the second flow passage. The crossover passage may include a canted configuration relative to the second flow passage.

A turbine vane of a turbine engine is described. The turbine vane includes a blade and a root. The root includes a stilt having lateral flanks with a curvilinear profile. The stilt includes a frangible zone suitable for undergoing a breakage of the stilt if radial forces higher than a threshold are exerted on the vane, in particular centrifugal forces during an overspeed state of the turbine. The frangible zone includes at least one oblong frangibility recess formed on at least one of the lateral flanks of the stilt, the oblong recess extending in an axial direction of the stilt along a longitudinal axis parallel to or included in a minimum cross-sectional plane which contains a minimum cross-section of the stilt.

A shroud having an annular member extending along an axis from a first end to a second end. The annular member has an inside surface radially inward from an outside surface that diverges from the first end towards the second end relative to the axis. The shroud further includes a flange that extends radially outward from the outside surface and a recess, each located at the second end. The recess extends radially outward from the inside surface and circumferentially about the axis. An axial extent of the recess at least partially coincides with an axial extent of the flange.

A fan of a gas turbine engine, which has a fan disk with a multiplicity of fastening elements which are spaced apart in a circumferential direction and which project axially forwardly from the fan disk, and a nose cone which is arranged upstream of the fan disk and which is connected by means of the fastening elements to the fan disk. On an axially front side of the fan disk, there is formed a periphery which runs in encircling fashion in the circumferential direction and which runs radially at the inside in relation to the axially rear end region of the nose cone, wherein the periphery which runs in encircling fashion in the circumferential direction forms a concave indentation, in such a way that water which ingresses into a gap between the axially rear edge of the nose cone and the fan disk passes into the concave indentation.

A vane ring for a gas turbine engine includes a contoured stop that extends from the static flowpath wall, the contoured stop being of an airfoil shape such that a first side of the contoured stop matches a portion of a first side of the first variable vane along a chord length when the first variable vane is pivoted about the longitudinal axis to a first position.

An engine component assembly with a first substrate having a hot surface in thermal communication with a hot combustion gas flow and a cooling surface, with the cooling surface being different than the hot surface, a second substrate having a first surface in fluid communication with a cooling fluid supply and a second surface, different from the first surface, facing and spaced from the cooling surface to define at least one interior cavity. At least one cavity is provided within the first substrate defining a cavity surface where at least a portion of the cavity surface is directly opposite the second surface. At least one cooling aperture extending through the second substrate from the first surface to the second surface, and defining a streamline along which a cooling fluid passes from the cooling fluid supply to the at least one interior cavity.

A turbine blade is provided. The turbine blade may include an airfoil having an airfoil tip, a leading edge, a trailing edge, and a pressure side and a suction side extending from the leading edge to the trailing edge and defining an airfoil cavity, a squealer tip arranged at the airfoil tip part and comprising a trailing edge tip portion disposed at the trailing edge of the airfoil and a pressure side rail and a suction side rail meeting at the trailing edge tip portion and defining a squealer tip pocket at the airfoil tip, and at least one tip cooling hole disposed at the squealer tip pocket to provide cooling air from the airfoil cavity to the squealer tip pocket, wherein the trailing edge tip portion of the squealer tip includes a chamfer disposed towards the pressure side of the airfoil and a groove extending from the squealer tip pocket to the chamfer to provide cooling air from the squealer tip pocket to the chamfer.

A variable guide vane (VGV) described herein includes an airfoil for interacting with a fluid inside a gas path of a gas turbine engine. The airfoil is mounted to a button and rotatable with the button about an axis. The button includes a platform surface defining part of the gas path adjacent the airfoil during use. The platform surface of the button includes a depression for receiving therein part of an adjacent VGV and providing clearance between adjacent VGVs at aggressive vane angles.

A guide vane for a variable turbine geometry and a turbine assembly provided with same are described. The guide vane has an outer face that is at least partly concave in design. The inner face opposite the outer face may also be at least partly concave in design. This gives the guide vane a good functional capability when arranged in a vane ring of a turbine, since an overflow through the gap between the guide vane and the neighboring walls is reduced.
