AFT ENGINE MOUNT RING WITH SPIGOT
An assembly for mounting an aircraft engine to an aircraft includes an engine casing flange having a first annular wall extending radially to terminate at an annular rim. A second flange of an additional engine component mounted aft of the engine casing includes a second annular wall. An aft mount bracket has an annular body extending uninterrupted about the center axis and a spigot extending axially from the annular body, the spigot extending circumferentially about an entire circumference of the annular body. The aft mount bracket is axially disposed between the engine casing flange and the additional engine component, with corresponding holes in the first annular wall, second annular wall and aft mount bracket being circumferentially aligned, and the spigot radially abutting the annular rim of the engine casing flange.
Mobile power system
The present invention discloses a mobile power system, the whole mobile power system is assigned onto two transport vehicles, achieving effective integration to reduce transport vehicle and transport cost; the two transport vehicles are connected at the side to enable quick and convenient connection in working state, greatly saving installation time; a gas turbine starter is disposed on an exhaust auxiliary transportation unit so that the mobile power system can be started by a gas turbine in totally power failure conditions.
Systems and methods for controlling temperature in a supporting foundation used with a gas turbine engine
A foundation temperature control system for use with a rotary machine is positioned between the rotary machine and a foundation. The foundation temperature control system includes a heat shield, an insulation pack positioned below the heat shield, and an air gap at least partially defined by the heat shield and the insulation pack. The heat shield, the insulation pack, and the air gap are oriented to facilitate maintaining a temperature of the foundation supporting the rotary machine below a maximum rated operating temperature of the foundation.
Adaptive mobile power generation system
This disclosure generally relates to power generation methods and systems based on gas turbine engines, and particularly to mobile and adaptive power generation systems and methods based on gas turbine engine for supplying mechanical and/or electrical power for fracturing operations at an oil wellsite. Various systems, platforms, components, devices, and methods are provided for flexibly and adaptively configure one of more gas turbines, hydraulic pumps, and electric generators to support both fracturing and electric demands at a well site. The disclosed implementations enable and facilitate a mobile, adaptive, and reconfigurable power system to provide both mechanical and electric power for hydraulic fracturing operation.
GEARED GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH FRONT SECTION MOMENT STIFFNESS RELATIONSHIPS
A gas turbine engine includes a fan rotor driven by a fan drive turbine about an axis through a gear reduction. An inner core engine has an inner core engine housing surrounding a compressor section, including a low pressure compressor. A rigid connection between a fan case and the inner core engine includes A-frames rigidly connected at a connection point to the fan case. Fan exit guide vanes rigidly connect to the fan case, and to the inner core engine. A fan intermediate case is positioned forward of a first rotor stage in the low pressure compressor. A rigid structure is connected to the inner core engine and to the fan exit guide vanes. The rigid structure defines a structure moment stiffness. The fan intermediate case defines an intermediate case moment stiffness. A ratio of the structure moment stiffness to the intermediate case moment stiffness is between 5 and 15.
OUTSIDE FIT FLANGE FOR AIRCRAFT ENGINE
A component of an aircraft engine includes an annular flange disposed about a radially outer surface of the component. the annular flange includes an annular wall extending radially outwardly from the radially outer surface of the component. The annular wall includes radially-extending supports circumferentially spaced apart and extending radially between the radially outer surface of the component and a circumferentially uninterrupted radially outer rim of the annular wall. The annular wall includes one or more arcuate cutouts defined circumferentially between adjacent radially-extending supports and radially inwards of the radially outer rim of the annular wall. The radially-extending supports include fastener openings defined axially therethrough. A spigot extends axially from the radially outer rim of the annular wall and circumferentially about an entire circumference of the radially outer rim of the annular wall.

An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a casing centered on a longitudinal axis and including an upstream portion, a central portion and a downstream portion arranged successively along the longitudinal axis, an attachment system include plural tie rods, and an accessory gearbox arranged within a space delimited axially by the upstream portion and the downstream portion and radially by the central portion, the accessory gearbox being solely attached to the upstream portion or solely attached to the downstream portion by the attachment system.
Variable turbomachine vane
A vane assembly for a turbomachine includes a variable vane (10-15), the vane having at least one first, in particular plane or curved, engagement surface (11; 11′) for clamping, in particular without play, an actuator (20) of the vane assembly for adjustment of the vane, this first engagement surface not being inclined toward a longitudinal axis (L) of the vane or being inclined toward it by no more than 15°, and/or the vane assembly including a clamp (30; 31) for clamping the actuator against the first engagement surface by at least partially elastically compressing the clamp transversely to the longitudinal axis of the vane and/or by advancing the clamp in a clamp direction (S) that forms an angle of at least 45° with the longitudinal axis of the vane.
Geared turbofan engine mount arrangement
A gas turbine engine for an aircraft comprising an engine core comprising a turbine, a compressor, and a core shaft connecting the turbine to the compressor; a fan located upstream of the engine core, the fan comprising a plurality of fan blades; a gearbox that receives an input from the core shaft and outputs drive to the fan so as to drive the fan at a lower rotational speed than the core shaft, and a front mount and a rear mount, the front and rear mounts being configured to connect the gas turbine engine to the aircraft, wherein the front mount is coupled to a casing of the engine core and the front mount is located at substantially the same axial position as a centre of gravity (CG) of the gas turbine engine or forward of the centre of gravity of the gas turbine engine.
