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 vane 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. The 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.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for composite-to-metal hybrid bonded structures compromising the laser surface treatment on titanium alloys to promote adhesive bond performance. For example, a computer may be programmed to set a laser path corresponding to a predetermined geometric pattern. A laser may be coupled to the computer and apply a pulsed laser beam to a contact surface of the titanium alloy along the predefined geometric pattern. The laser may generate an open pore oxide layer on the contact surface of the substrate with a thickness of 100 and 500 nm. The open pore oxide layer may have a topography corresponding to the predefined geometric pattern. The topography may contain high degree of open pore structure and promote adhesive bond performance. Adhesive, primer or composite resin matrix may fully infiltrate into the open pore structures. Adhesive and composite laminate may co-cure to form composite-to-titanium hybrid bonded structures.

A gas turbine engine includes a compressor section that provides first and second compressor stages that are configured to respectively provide first and second cooling fluids. The first compressor stage has a higher pressure than the second compressor stage. The gas turbine engine further includes a component that has platform with an internal cooling passage fed by first and second inlets that respectively receive fluid from the first and second cooling sources. The second inlet is downstream from the first inlet.

An assembly for a turbomachine through which an air flow passes, includes a stator including guide vanes extending radially in relation to a longitudinal axis, at least one inter-vane platform extending between the radially outer ends of two circumferentially consecutive guide vanes, each inter-vane platform including an outer surface that faces the axis, a heat exchanger located downstream of the stator in relation to a direction of circulation of the air flow in the turbomachine during operation, this stator including a heat exchange surface extending in the extension of an inter-vane platform. At least one inter-vane platform located in the upstream extension of the heat exchange surface is provided with at least one turbulence generator on its outer surface.

A vibration damping system for a turbine nozzle or blade includes a vibration damping element including a plurality of contacting members including a plurality of damper pins. Each damper pin includes a body. A wire mesh member surrounds the body of at least one of the plurality of damper pins. The wire mesh member has a first outer dimension sized for frictionally engaging within a body opening in the turbine nozzle or blade to damp vibration. Spacer members devoid of a wire mesh member may also be used. The damper pins can have different sizes to accommodate contiguous body openings of different sizes in the nozzle or blade. The body opening can be angled relative to a radial extent of the nozzle or blade.

A turbine assembly for use with a gas turbine engine includes a bladed wheel assembly and a vane assembly. The bladed wheel assembly is adapted to interact with gases flowing through a gas path of the gas turbine engine. The vane assembly is located upstream of the bladed wheel assembly and adapted to direct the gases at the bladed wheel assembly.

A vane arc segment includes an airfoil piece that defines first and second platforms and a airfoil section that extends between the first and second platforms. The airfoil section has a trailing edge, a leading edge, a pressure side, and a suction side. The platforms each define first and second circumferential mate faces, forward and aft sides, a gaspath side, a non-gaspath side, and a radial flange that projects from the non-gaspath side. Each radial flange extends continuously and includes a first leg portion that extends adjacent the trailing edge, a second leg portion that extends from the first leg portion and curves around the suction side, and a third leg portion that extends from the second leg portion toward the forward side.

A combustor inlet mixing system (10) formed from a plurality of circumferentially spaced swirler vanes (38) extending radially outward from a nozzle hub. Each of the swirler vanes (38) may have a length (62) that extends downstream along at least a portion of the combustor inlet mixing system (10), and may further have a thickness (66) that extends along a circumference of the nozzle hub. At least one of the swirler vanes (38) may further have at least one slot (42) cut entirely through the thickness (66) of a portion of the swirler vane (38). The slot (42) may separate the swirler vane (38) from the nozzle hub along a portion of the length (62) of the swirler vane (38).

A stator vane arrangement for a turbomachine comprises a radially inner annular structure, a radially outer annular structure and a plurality of circumferentially spaced vanes extending radially between the inner annular structure and the outer annular structure. At least one of the vanes has a passage extending from the inner annular structure to the outer annular structure. The inner annular structure has at least one radially inwardly extending boss and each boss has a passage extending there-through. The passage in each boss is aligned with a corresponding passage in a vane. Each boss comprises a first portion having a first cross-sectional area and a second portion having a second cross-sectional area which is greater than the first cross-sectional area. The first portion of each boss is positioned between and interconnecting the second portion of the boss and the inner annular structure.
