An air moving device includes an outer casing comprising an outer diameter, an inner portion defining a flow path, an inlet portion defining an inlet cross-sectional area, and an opposing outlet portion defining an outlet cross-sectional area. A motor assembly is disposed within the outer casing, and a hub and blade assembly is secured to a shaft on the motor assembly. The air moving device further includes a de-swirl vane package. The package includes a plurality of de-swirl vanes disposed in the flow path. The blades are characterized by one or more resonant frequencies, and a potential excitation source of the blade resonant frequencies is a flow path obstruction comprising a plurality of objects substantially equally spaced about the circumference of the flow path. The flow path obstruction is characterized by a periodic frequency. The periodic frequency differs from the blade resonant frequencies by a safety margin of at least 20%.

A stator structure and a motor are provided, including an air duct housing. A fixing part is coaxially disposed in the air duct housing and configured to install a motor assembly, connecting components disposed between the air duct housing and the fixing part fix a relative position between the air duct housing and the fixing part, a position of a mounting inlet of the fixing part is on the same side as a position of a fan blade assembly of the air duct housing, an end of the fixing part far away from the mounting inlet is provided with a mounting end cover. By setting the mounting inlet of the fixing part and the fan blade assembly of the air duct housing on the same side, processing of surfaces A, B and C can be completed by one processing without secondary processing, therefore ensuring coaxiality and accuracy of the processing.

A component for a gas turbine engine includes a platform having an outer surface and an inner surface. A cover plate can be positioned adjacent to the outer surface of the platform. The outer surface of the platform can include a pocket and the cover plate is positioned relative to the pocket to establish a platform cooling channel therebetween.

A vacuum pump includes a rotor provided with a plurality of rotor blades and a rotor cylinder portion, a driving portion, a bearing, stator blades, a thread groove stator that is disposed downstream of the stator blades and has an inner peripheral surface facing an outer peripheral surface of the rotor cylinder portion, and a heat insulating wall disposed downstream of the thread groove. The heat insulating wall includes a ring-shaped annular portion, and a substantially cylindrical wall portion extending from an inner portion of the annular portion in the radial direction to the upstream side and forming a flow path on the outer peripheral surface side. A first corner portion is formed between an upstream-side surface of the annular portion and the outer peripheral surface of the wall portion, the first corner portion being formed in an arc shape.

A passive transpirational flow acoustic liner assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a guide vane assembly and a conduit configured to deliver airflow received from the guide vane. The guide vane assembly includes an airfoil having a transpirational flow acoustic liner. The acoustic liner includes a face sheet defining a portion of an outer surface of the airfoil and having a plurality of first apertures, a segmented member coupled to the face sheet and having a plurality of chambers in fluid communication with the outer surface via the plurality of first apertures, a backing sheet having a plurality of apertures and being coupled to the segmented member such that the segmented member is positioned between the face sheet and the backing sheet, and a plenum coupled to the backing sheet opposite the segmented member and fluidly connected to the conduit.

A vane carrier assembly is provided for supporting vanes within a main engine casing of a gas turbine engine. The vane carrier assembly comprises a plurality of vane support panels positioned adjacent to one another so as to define a vane support assembly. The support panels are assembled such that the support panels expand circumferentially to minimize radial expansion of the vane support assembly during operation of the gas turbine engine. A control ring is coupled to the main engine casing, and the vane support assembly is coupled to the control ring. The control ring may be formed from a material having a coefficient of thermal expansion less than that of the material from which the vane support assembly is formed.

The present disclosure relates to a hairdryer and, more specifically, to a hairdryer wherein a ratio between dimensions of fan unit components is appropriately changed to stabilize the flow of air introduced into a fan unit and suppress occurrence of turbulence so that internal flow efficiency can be increased and the noise can be decreased.

The present invention relates to a system and method for joining adjacent sections of a compressor diaphragm. A splitline jumper is positioned within a recessed portion of a seal ring segment of the adjacent compressor diaphragms. The splitline jumper is sized and oriented so as to prevent axial movement of the compressor diaphragms relative to each other and also to prevent rotational movement of the seal ring relative to the diaphragm.

An abrasive coating comprising a plurality of first grit particles placed on a top surface of a substrate and spaced to provide channels for the removal of cut chips and rub debris and heat reduction. A plurality of second grit particles are placed between each of the first grit particles, and having a nominal size smaller than the first grit particles. A mixture of the second grit particles to the first grit particles comprises from about 75-98%. The second grit particles form a single layer or multiple layers and comprise height of 10 to 60% of that of the first grit particles. A matrix material is bonded to the top surface; the matrix material envelops the second grit particles and bonds to and partially surrounds the first grit particles. The first grit particles extend above the matrix material and the second grit particles relative to the top surface.

A composite article comprises a substrate, the substrate comprising a silicon containing material and an additive comprising boron nitride nanotubes.
