In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, there is provided a fuel system for a gas turbine engine of an aircraft, including a main inlet feed conduit fluidly connected to a primary manifold feed conduit and a secondary manifold feed conduit. A primary manifold fluidly connects the primary manifold feed conduit to a plurality of primary fuel injectors, and a secondary manifold fluidly connects the secondary manifold feed conduit to a plurality of secondary fuel injectors.

A combustor for a turbine engine is provided, the combustor includes an outer liner, an inner liner and a dome that together define a combustion chamber; a diffuser positioned upstream of the combustion chamber, the diffuser being configured to receive air flow from a compressor section and to provide a flow of compressed air to the combustion chamber; and an outer cowl and an inner cowl located upstream of the combustion chamber, the outer cowl and the inner cowl being configured to direct a portion of air flow from the diffuser to the combustion chamber. The diffuser is configured to output air flow having an amount of air pressure maximized at a center of the air flow so as to optimize total air pressure fed to the combustion chamber through the dome.

A pulse combustor system for operating pulse combustors in anti-phase. The pulse combustor system includes two pulse combustors connected at their combustion chambers by a connecting tube. Each of the pulse combustors has a fundamental oscillation mode and one or more additional oscillation modes when operated in isolation. The connecting tube has a length corresponding to ¼ of the fundamental oscillation mode wavelength.

A combustor of an embodiment includes: a combustor casing; a combustor liner which is provided in the combustor casing and combusts a fuel and an oxidant to produce a combustion gas; a pipe-shaped member provided to penetrate the combustor casing and the combustor liner; a heat-resistant glass which is provided on the combustor casing side in the pipe-shaped member and closes the pipe-shaped member; a laser light supply mechanism which irradiates an interior of the combustor liner through the heat-resistant glass and an interior of the pipe-shaped member with a laser light; and a contact prevention mechanism which prevents a combustion gas in the combustor liner from coming into contact with the heat-resistant glass.

A combustion cylinder mounting method, wherein a preparation step, a first contact maintenance step, a second contact maintenance step, and a combustion cylinder fixing step are executed. In the preparation step, a combustion cylinder mounting jig equipped with a spacer portion capable of maintaining a predetermined spacing between a first combustion cylinder and a second combustion cylinder adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction is prepared. In the first contact maintenance step, the spacer portion is brought into contact with the first combustion cylinder attached to the stationary portion of a casing. In the second contact maintenance step, the second combustion cylinder is brought into contact with the spacer portion. In the combustion cylinder fixing step, the second combustion cylinder is attached to the stationary portion while the first combustion cylinder and the second combustion cylinder are in contact with the spacer portion.

A coating system for a turbine engine component is disclosed. The coating system includes a substrate, an optional bond coat, a synthetic oxide layer and a top coat. The synthetic oxide layer is formed by atomic layer deposition and includes two or more oxides.

A combustor for a gas turbine engine having a compressor upstream of the combustor and a turbine downstream of the combustor. The combustor also includes a combustor chamber, an oxy-fuel pilot burner (104) centrally positioned at an end of the combustor chamber, and an air-fuel premix burner configured to at least partially premix air and fuel. The air-fuel premix burner surrounds the oxy-fuel pilot burner (104) in an annular configuration.

A system includes a gas delivery disk coupled to a second shaft, wherein the second shaft and the gas delivery disk are disposed about an axis. The gas delivery disk includes an inner axial opening configured to facilitate a first axial flow through a first passage within the second shaft, a duct configured to supply a bearing flow in a radial direction toward the axis, and a bearing face disposed within the first passage and radially interior to the inner axial opening. The bearing face is configured to receive the bearing flow, and the bearing face is configured to form a gas bearing between the bearing face and a first shaft disposed about the axis.

The present disclosure generally relates to methods for additive manufacturing (AM) that utilize integrated ribs to support thin walled annular structures. An annular wall fabricated using AM has a thickness less than 0.022 inches across a majority of a surface of the annular wall and a plurality of ribs having a thickness greater than 0.030 inches. The annular wall has a mean thickness less than 0.100 inches. The annular wall conforms to a surface of the component and a mean distance between the annular wall and the component is less than 0.080 inches.
