A pump housing of a motor vehicle hydraulic unit is disclosed. The pump housing has at least one side surface, at least one main cylinder connection opening, at least one pump element opening and a connecting line which connects the at least one main cylinder connection opening to the at least one pump element opening. The pump housing is designed as a blind bore into the pump housing, and the blind bore of the connecting line extends from the at least one side surface initially through the at least one pump element opening and subsequently into the at least one main cylinder connection opening.

A retractable exhaust liner segment according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, at least one liner segment extending between a forward end and an aft end. The forward end of the at least one liner segment is configured to overlap an aft end of an engine structure and the aft end of the at least one liner segment is configured to overlap a forward end of an exhaust liner when in an assembled position. The at least one liner is configured such that a gap exists between the at least one liner segment and one of the engine structure and the exhaust liner when the at least one liner segment is moved along an axis in a first direction to a disassembled position. The gap closes as the at least one liner segment is moved along the axis in a second, different direction to the assembled position.

A gas turbine engine composite vane assembly and method for making same are disclosed. The method includes providing at least two gas turbine engine airfoil composite preform components. The airfoil composite preform components are interlocked with a first locking component so that mating faces of the airfoil composite preform components face each other. A filler material is inserted between the mating surfaces of the airfoil composite preform components.

A system and a method for adjusting an angle of at least one stator vane of a low pressure compressor (LPC) of a two spool gas turbine engine is disclosed. Variable stator vanes are rotatably coupled to a stationary case in one of the stages of the LPC. An actuator is coupled to at least one of the variable stator vanes for imparting rotation of the stator vane about a radius of the case. Various coupling or linkage arrangements may be made so that rotation of one vane results in rotation of the other vanes disposed along the case. The controller includes the stored constraints, the ability to estimate operating condition, and the ability to estimate optimum targets.

A transportable gas turbine module including a baseplate supporting at least a gas turbine and a load drivingly connected to the gas turbine. The module further comprises a structure surrounding the gas turbine and the load and connected to the baseplate. The baseplate is designed such that it can support a heavy duty as turbine having a rated power of not less than 80 MW.

A first rotor configured to rotate adjacent to a second rotor is disclosed. The second rotor includes a circular main body with a first axis of rotation and a vane extending radially from the main body. The first rotor includes a first curved surface that corresponds to a curve swept at a constant radius about a second axis of rotation, a second curved surface that corresponds to a curve swept by a leading edge of the vane when the second rotor is simultaneously rotated about the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation, a third curved surface that corresponds to a curve swept by a trailing edge of the vane when the second rotor is simultaneously rotated about the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation, and a vane-receiving groove disposed between the second curved surface and the third curved surface.

A gas turbine engine includes a first non-contacting dynamic rotor seal interfaced with a spool, the first non-contacting dynamic seal operates to seal adjacent to an outer diameter and a second non-contacting dynamic rotor seal with respect to the spool, the second non-contacting dynamic seal operates to seal adjacent to an inner diameter.

The invention relates to a fluid pump, in particular to a liquid pump having a rotor with at last one rotor blade for conveying the fluid, the rotor being variable with respect to its diameter between a first, compressed state and a second expanded state. In order to produce a simple compressibility and expandability of the rotor of the pump, it is provided according to the invention that at least one rotor blade is deformable between a first state which it assumes in the compressed state of the rotor and a second state which it assumes in the expanded state of the rotor by means of a fluid counterpressure during a rotation of the rotor during pump operation.

A pressurized water reactor (PWR) includes a vertical cylindrical pressure vessel having a lower portion containing a nuclear reactor core and a vessel head defining an internal pressurizer. A reactor coolant pump (RCP) mounted on the vessel head includes an impeller inside the pressure vessel, a pump motor outside the pressure vessel, and a vertical drive shaft connecting the motor and impeller. The drive shaft does not pass through the internal pressurizer. A central riser may be disposed concentrically inside the pressure vessel, and the RCP impels primary coolant downward into a downcomer annulus between the central riser and the pressure vessel. A steam generator may be disposed in the downcomer annulus and spaced apart from with the impeller by an outlet plenum. A manway may access the outlet plenum so tube plugging can be performed on the steam generator via access through the manway without removing the RCP.

A gas turbine engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a compressor section, a combustor in fluid communication with the compressor section and a turbine section in fluid communication with the combustor. A buffer system includes a first circuit that supplies a first buffer supply air and a second circuit that supplies a second buffer supply air. The first circuit includes a first bleed air supply and a second bleed air supply. The second circuit includes a third bleed air supply and a fourth bleed air supply and at least one of the first circuit and the second circuit includes a variable area ejector.
