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 exterior 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 described 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.

An apparatus and a process for converting a twin spool aero gas turbine engine to an industrial gas turbine engine, where the fan of the aero engine is removed and replaced with an electric generator, a power turbine is added that drives a low pressure compressor that is removed from the aero engine, variable guide vanes are positioned between the high pressure turbine and the power turbine, and a low pressure compressed air line is connected between the outlet of the low pressure compressor and an inlet to the high pressure compressor, where a hot gas flow produced in the combustor first flows through the high pressure turbine, then through the low pressure turbine, and then through the power turbine.

A variable guide vane assembly is provided for a turbine defining a core air flowpath. The variable guide vane assembly includes an airfoil band defining a flowpath surface and a cavity. The variable guide vane assembly further includes an airfoil including a first end extending at least partially into the cavity of the airfoil band and an opposite second end, the airfoil extending generally along an axis between the first end and the second end and being moveable generally about the axis relative to the airfoil band. The variable guide vane assembly further includes a sealing element operable to form a seal between the first end of the airfoil and the airfoil band.

A mid-turbine frame (MTF) assembly having: an outer case circumferentially extending around a central axis; an outer ring secured to the outer case and disposed radially inwardly of the outer case relative to the central axis; an inner case structurally connected to the outer case and disposed radially inwardly of the outer ring relative to the central axis; a main plenum circumferentially extending around the central axis and located between the outer case and the outer ring, the main plenum having an inlet fluidly connectable to a source of cooling air, a first outlet fluidly connected to a secondary plenum between the main plenum and the inner case, a second outlet configured to be fluidly connected to a rotor cavity of the low-pressure turbine, and a third outlet configured to be fluidly connected to a plenum surrounding a containment ring of the low-pressure turbine.

A bearing support designed to be secured to a stationary turbojet element for supporting a journal, including a cone which widens from a central portion for supporting the journal to a portion for securing to the stationary element, a cylindrical body extending the portion for securing to the stationary element while surrounding the cone, an upstream skirt carried by the cone for defining an upstream enclosure for the central portion, and at least one downstream revolution element carried by the cone for defining a downstream enclosure for the central portion. The bearing support can be made as a single part produced by additive manufacturing.

A turbine blade tip shroud has a first cutter tooth extending from a tip rail from one of the upstream side and the downstream side of the tip rail and adjacent the leading edge of the body. The tip shroud also includes a second cutter tooth extending from the tip rail from the other side of the tip rail at a position axially distant from the first cutter tooth. The cutter teeth are thus axially offset. The tip shroud can be initially manufactured with this shape or may be modified from a used tip shroud having, for example, opposing cutter teeth near a leading edge of a body of the tip shroud. Various tip shroud surface profiles, which are expressed in terms of Cartesian coordinates, are also provided.

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.

A turbine vane for a gas turbine engine, including: a first airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced apart pressure and suction sides to provide an exterior airfoil surface extending from an inner platform in a radial direction to an outer platform, wherein a portion of the exterior airfoil surface of the first airfoil is formed in conformance with a set of Cartesian coordinates set forth in Table 1 as offset by corresponding values in Table 4, and wherein the values of Table 4 are offset from a point of origin that is a point where a radially outward surface of the inner platform meets a surface of a trailing edge of the inner platform and a surface of a mate face of the inner platform.

Gas turbine engines are described. The engines include high and low pressure turbine systems, a mid-turbine frame system arranged axially between the high and low pressure turbine systems, and a cooling air conduit fluidly connected to the mid-turbine frame system. A flow diverter assembly is installed between the cooling air conduit and the mid-turbine frame system. The flow diverter assembly includes a mounting plate to mount to the mid-turbine frame system, a manifold defining a manifold cavity on a first side of the mounting plate, a conduit connector for connecting to the cooling air conduit, and a diverter body extending from a second side of the mounting plate opposite the manifold. The diverter body has a solid base and a plurality of apertures arranged about a circumference thereof. The manifold cavity is fluidly connected to an interior of the diverter body through an aperture formed in the mounting plate.

A tip shroud includes a pair of opposed, axially extending wings configured to couple to an airfoil at a radially outer end thereof. The tip shroud also includes a tip rail extending radially from the pair of opposed, axially extending wings. Tip shroud surface profiles may be of the downstream and/or upstream side of the tip rail, a leading Z-notch of the tip shroud, and/or a downstream radially inner surface of a wing. The surface profiles may have a nominal profile substantially in accordance with at least part of Cartesian coordinate values of X and Y, and perhaps Z and a thickness, set forth in a respective table. The radially inner surface of the wing may define a protrusion extending along the radially outer end of the airfoil, the suction side fillet, and a radial inner surface of the wing to an axial edge of the wing.
