An internal combustion engine, ICE, system, includes a turbocharger having a turbine and a compressor for compressing intake air and feeding the intake air to the ICE. A turbo turbine unit is disposed in an exhaust gas path downstream the turbocharger to receive exhaust gas from the turbocharger. The turbo turbine unit having a turbine wheel, a bearing housing defining an inside volume for containing lubrication oil, and a sealing arrangement positioned in the vicinity of the turbine wheel for preventing lubrication oil from escaping from the inside volume of the bearing housing to an exhaust duct of the turbo turbine unit. A buffer air conduit extends between a selected position at the compressor and a buffer air inlet of the turbo turbine unit. The buffer air inlet is in fluid communication with a buffer air channel inside the turbo turbine unit to direct buffer air to a position in-between axially opposite arranged annular sealing members to provide a counter-pressure against at least one of the annular sealing members.

The present application provides an exhaust frame differential cooling system of a gas turbine engine to mitigate a temperature differential along a compressor and/or a turbine to minimize centerline eccentricity of a shaft. The exhaust frame differential cooling system may include a number of compressor temperature sensors positioned about the compressor and/or a number of turbine temperature sensors positioned about the turbine, an exhaust frame including an inner barrel with a bearing tunnel for the shaft, an outer barrel, and a number of struts extending from the inner barrel to the outer barrel, a blower, and a cooling air metering system that provides cooling air from the blower to the bearing tunnel and through the inner barrel, the struts, and the outer barrel in response to the temperature differential being determined along the compressor and/or the turbine.

A device for lubricating and cooling a turbomachine rolling bearing is at least partially annular. The device comprises a first duct and a second duct inclined with respect to the first duct. The first duct is configured to be in thermal contact with an outer ring of the rolling bearing that at least partially surrounds same. The second duct is fluidically connected to the first duct. The first duct is configured to circulate the lubricant for cooling the outer ring, towards a discharge outlet of the lubricant. The second duct is configured to eject the lubricant through a lubrication outlet towards the rolling bearing.

The bearing arrangement includes a one-piece gas bearing sleeve (32) configured to rotatably support the drive shaft (4) and made in molybdenum or in a molybdenum alloy, the one-piece gas bearing sleeve (32) including a radial bearing surface (33) configured to Surround the drive shaft (4).

An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This assembly includes a gas turbine engine and a vapor absorption refrigeration system. The gas turbine engine includes a turbine section. The vapor absorption refrigeration system is configured to be driven by waste heat energy received from the turbine section. The vapor absorption refrigeration system includes a condenser.

An air starter for starting a turbine engine that includes a housing, a turbine, an output shaft, and at least one bearing. The housing can define an interior where the turbine couples to the output shaft. A primary air flow path extends through the housing where air from the turbine can be exhausted through a primary outlet or a cooling outlet.

Various methods and systems are provided for a radial turbocharger. In one example, the turbocharger comprises a turbine case housing a turbine wheel and a compressor case housing a compressor wheel, the turbine case including a vaneless turbine nozzle integrated into the turbine case, a bearing case surrounding a shaft connecting the turbine wheel to the compressor wheel and arranged between the turbine case and compressor case, a plurality of long bolts arranged around a circumference of the turbine case, and a plurality of slots arranged around a circumference of the turbine case, a slot length of each slot extending in a radial direction and adapted to receive a dowel pin having a diameter smaller than the slot length, where each dowel pin, via a corresponding slot, couples the bearing case to the turbine case.

A gas turbine engine includes a buffer system that communicates a buffer supply air to a portion of the gas turbine engine. The buffer system includes a first bleed air supply having a first pressure, a second bleed air supply having a second pressure that is greater than the first pressure, and a valve that selects between the first bleed air supply and the second bleed air supply to communicate the buffer supply air to the portion of the gas turbine engine.
