A method of assembling a gas turbine engine is disclosed herein. The method comprises providing a set of standard axial compressor stages. Each axial compressor stage included in the set of standard axial compressor stages includes a rotor having a plurality of blades configured to rotate about an axis and a stator having a plurality of stator vanes.

An aircraft engine has: a compressor section having a compressor rotor rotatable about a central axis; a diffuser downstream of the compressor rotor, the diffuser including a diffuser ring extending circumferentially around the central axis; a bearing housing secured to the diffuser ring, the bearing housing contained within a volume located radially inwardly of the diffuser ring; and an air manifold secured to the diffuser ring, the air manifold defining inlets in fluid flow communication with the compressor section and an outlet in fluid flow communication with the volume.

A gas turbine engine includes a fan, a compressor, a combustor, and a turbine. The compressor compresses gases entering the gas turbine engine. The combustor receives the compressed gases from the compressor and mixes fuel with the compressed gases. The turbine receives the hot, high pressure combustion products created by the combustor by igniting the fuel mixed with the compressed gases. The turbine extracts mechanical work from the hot, high pressure combustion products to drive the fan and compressor.

An outlet guide vane for an axial compressor extending along a rotor axis, includes an airfoil extending in a span direction from a radially inner end at 0% height to a radially outer end at 0% height. The airfoil has a suction side and an opposite pressure side, both sides extending in a chord direction from a leading edge to a trailing edge, wherein for each profile of the airfoil a stagger angle between the chord and the rotor axis is defined. A more favorable air flow profile behind the outlet guide vane is achieved by a new shape of the outlet guide vane, wherein a stagger angle distribution in the span direction has a curved course having a minimum located between 40% and 60% in the span direction, a first maximum at 0% and a second maximum at 100% in the span direction.

Provided is a turbo compressor. The turbo compressor includes a driving shaft, a first impeller, a second impeller, a first shroud, a second shroud, a first-stage outflow passage, and a second-stage outflow passage. Also, the turbo compressor includes a gap adjustment passage that is branched from at least one of the first-stage outflow passage or the second-stage outflow passage to extend to the first shroud.

A gas turbine engine includes a compressor section having a high pressure compressor, the high pressure compressor including an aft-most compressor stage. The gas turbine engine also includes a combustion section having a stage of discharge nozzles, the stage of discharge nozzles located downstream of the aft-most compressor stage and upstream of a diffuser cavity. The gas turbine engine also includes a high pressure spool drivingly coupled to the high pressure compressor, the high pressure spool forming in part a compressor discharge pressure seal and including a forward spool section. The forward spool section extends between the compressor discharge pressure seal and the aft-most compressor stage, the forward spool section defining an airflow cavity for providing a cooling airflow from the diffuser cavity to the aft-most compressor stage.

A rotor blade includes an airfoil having an airfoil shape. The airfoil shape has a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in one of Table I, Table II, Table III, Table IV, Table V, Table VI, Table VII, Table VIII, Table IX, Table X, Table XI, or Table XII. The Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values from 0% to 100% convertible to dimensional distances expressed in a unit of distance by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a scaling factor of the airfoil in the unit of distance. The X and Y values, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each Z value. The airfoil profile sections at Z values are joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.
