A cable that includes a conductor defining a hollow interior, a casing surrounding the conductor, an electrical insulator positioned between the conductor and the casing, and a fluid positioned within the hollow interior of the conductor.

A fan blade comprises interleaved plies, where interleaving comprises distributing wide plies within narrow plies and short plies within long plies in the fan blade; wherein the interleaving is defined as an actual intersection of a plurality of plies of different variable dimensions that extend in the chordwise direction with another plurality of plies of different variable dimensions that extend in the spanwise direction such that their respective longitudinal axes intersect with one another at angles of 5 to 175 degrees.

In a method for operating an engine, a request for an increase in thrust generated by the engine is received. In response to receipt of the request, a determination is made as to whether at least one operating condition for heat application-based thrust is met. If so, a heat source is applied to heat bypass air flowing through the bypass duct towards the exhaust nozzle and the increase in thrust is generated from an increased temperature of mixed bypass air and core air at the exhaust nozzle.

In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, there is provided a method of accelerating a gas turbine engine. The method includes adding torque to a core of the gas turbine engine to accelerate rotation of the core by controlling fuel flow to a plurality of fuel injectors of the gas turbine engine. The method also includes adding torque to the core by powering an electric machine that is operatively connected to the core. In embodiments, controlling fuel flow to the plurality of fuel injectors is based on feedback from the electric machine.

A method for forming a ceramic matrix composite component includes forming a fibrous preform of the component with a plurality of fiber layers and a fill region disposed between one or more of the plurality of fiber layers. Ceramic particles are provided in the fill region, which is densified using chemical vapor infiltration.

A manufacturing method is provided. During this method, a preform component is provided for a turbine engine. The preform component includes a substrate. A meter section of a cooling aperture is formed in the substrate. An internal coating is applied onto a surface of the meter section. An external coating is applied over the substrate. A diffuser section of the cooling aperture is formed in the external coating and the substrate to provide the cooling aperture.

A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine has an airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced-apart pressure and suction sides to provide an external airfoil surface extending from a platform in a spanwise direction to a tip. The external airfoil surface is formed in substantial conformance with multiple cross-sectional profiles of the airfoil defined by a set of Cartesian coordinates set forth in Table 1, the Cartesian coordinates provided by an axial coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, a circumferential coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, and a span location.
