A combustion chamber suitable in particular for use in a rocket engine comprises a combustion space, a first wall enclosing the combustion space and cooling duct fins, which extend from a surface of the first wall and separate adjacent cooling ducts from one another. At least one of the cooling duct fins has at its end facing away from the surface of the first wall a bent section, which at least partially covers a cooling duct adjacent to the cooling duct fin.

A method of repairing a component of a gas turbine engine in situ, wherein the component includes a deposit, includes directing a flow of gas, which may be an oxygen-containing gas, to the deposit of the component; and heating the component including the deposit while the component is installed in the gas turbine engine and for a duration sufficient to substantially remove the deposit.

A method of making a fluid injector for a gas turbine engine includes depositing material onto a piece of tube stock. The method includes machining the deposited material into a fluid injector component. Depositing can include laser cladding the material onto the piece of tube stock. The method can include placing or flowing braze into a braze joint location between the deposited material and another fluid injector component and forming the braze into a braze joint in the braze joint location.

A tool for removing a coating from an interior surface of a component. The tool includes a rotary device; a grinding attachment attached to the rotary device; a tool holder configured to: set an axial position of the grinding attachment coupled to the rotary device over the coating on the interior surface of the component; and set a radial position of the grinding attachment coupled to the rotary device, the radial position defining a cutting depth of the grinding attachment into the coating on the interior surface of the component; and a wheel assembly coupled to the tool holder for guiding the tool holder about an interior perimeter of the component.

An assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This gas turbine engine assembly includes a split case structure. The split case structure includes a first wall, a second wall, a first case segment and a second case segment. The first wall extends axially along and circumferentially about an axial centerline. The second wall extends axially along and circumferentially about the axial centerline. The second wall is radially outboard of and axially overlaps the first wall. The first case segment is configured to form a first portion of the first wall and a first portion of the second wall. The second case segment is configured to form a second portion of the first wall and a second portion of the second wall. The second case segment is circumferentially adjacent and attached to the first case segment at a joint.

A method of making a threaded inlet fitting on a fluid injection component for a gas turbine engine includes depositing material onto a piece of tube stock. The method includes machining threads into the deposited material. Depositing can include laser cladding the material onto the piece of tube stock. The piece of tube stock can be a feed arm of a fluid injector.

A method of making a fluid injection component for a gas turbine engine includes depositing material onto a piece of tube stock. The method includes machining an elbow into the deposited material, wherein machining the elbow includes forming a braze joint surface in the deposited material. Depositing can include laser cladding the material onto the piece of tube stock.

A method of making a fluid injector for a gas turbine engine includes depositing material onto a piece of tube stock. The method includes machining the deposited material into a fluid injector component. Depositing can include laser cladding the material onto the piece of tube stock. The method can include placing or flowing braze into a braze joint location between the deposited material and another fluid injector component and forming the braze into a braze joint in the braze joint location.

An airfoil component for attaching to a cropped airfoil is provided. The cropped airfoil comprises a cropped airfoil attachment section and a cropped first side opposite a cropped second side, which each extend axially between a cropped first edge and a cropped second edge to define a cropped chord length. The airfoil component comprises a body having a component first side opposite a component second side. The body defines an attachment section for attaching the airfoil component to the cropped airfoil at the cropped airfoil attachment section. The attachment section extends axially between a component first edge and a component second edge to define a component chord length, and the attachment section is oversized with respect to the cropped airfoil attachment section such that the component chord length is longer than the cropped chord length. Systems and methods also are provided.

Auxetic structures, effusion-cooling auxetic sheets, systems and devices with auxetic structures, and methods of using and methods of making auxetic structures are disclosed. An auxetic structure is disclosed which includes an elastically rigid body with opposing top and bottom surfaces. First and second pluralities of elongated apertures extend through the elastically rigid body from the top surface to the bottom surface. The first plurality of elongated apertures extends transversely with respect to the second plurality of elongated apertures. The first and/or second pluralities of elongated apertures have distorted shapes projected through the elastically rigid body at an oblique angle. The elongated apertures are cooperatively configured to provide a desired stress performance while exhibiting negative Poisson's Ratio (NPR) behavior under macroscopic planar loading conditions. By way of example, the auxetic structure may exhibit a reduction in stress concentration proximate the elongated apertures and a Poisson's Ratio of approximately −0.0001 to −0.9%.
