AIRCRAFT TURBINE ENGINE EQUIPPED WITH AN ELECTRICAL MACHINE
Disclosed is an aircraft turbine engine (10), comprising a gas generator (12) and a fan (14) arranged upstream from the gas generator (12) and configured to generate a gas inlet stream (F), part of which flows into a duct of the gas generator to form a primary stream (36), the turbine engine (10) comprising an electrical machine that is mounted coaxially downstream from the fan (14) and that comprises a rotor (62a) surrounded by a stator (62b) carried by an annular shroud (64), this shroud (64) being surrounded by a casing (40) of the gas generator that defines, with this shroud (64), a section of the flow duct for the primary stream (36), stationary vanes (42, 68) for straightening this primary stream (36) extending into this path.
SEAL CARRIER FOR A TURBOMACHINE, HAVING SLOT-LIKE OPENINGS IN THE SEAL BODY
The invention relates to a seal carrier for a turbomachine, in particular a gas turbine, having a carrier base and at least one seal body, wherein the at least one seal body is connected to the carrier base, and wherein the at least one seal body is formed by a plurality of cavities arranged next to one another, in particular uniformly, in the peripheral direction and in the axial direction, wherein the cavities extend out from the carrier base in the radial direction and are delimited by a cavity wall. According to the invention, the seal body has a plurality of damping portions which are designed to locally damp or disrupt the flow of force in the seal body, wherein the carrier base is continuous in the region of the damping portions.
AIRFOIL ASSEMBLY WITH LEADING EDGE ELEMENT
An airfoil assembly including a composite body having a mounting edge and a trailing edge which is secured to a leading edge element defining a 3-D leading edge geometry with both chord and camber variation.
Systems and methods for optimizing complex systems
A computer-implemented method for optimizing control of a process includes a computer receiving a process definition and a collection of elements to be arranged in a way that optimizes the utility of the process; initializing the process using a collection of discrete elements (stops, events, work orders, tasks, locations, etc.), and producing a solution for the collection by inserting the elements into the solution using the Minimum Insertion Heuristic; modifying the order of the elements to be inserted and continuing the process to produce solutions with better scores; and continuing to produce solutions based on improving the order of insertion until the process is determined to be sufficiently optimized.
Method for manufacturing processed article, tool path calculation method, processed article, and impeller
A processed article is manufactured with a tool including a cutting blade. The cutting blade is arranged to be in contact with two machined segment surfaces so that two contact points are defined between the two machined segment surfaces and the cutting blade in a corner. A machining pitch is set in a pick feed direction of the tool at the corner to a first machining pitch for when a part of the cutting blade corresponding to a projected shape of a side surface of the cutting blade having a first curvature radius is a cutting point. A cut is performed along a feed direction in the two adjacent machined segment surfaces successively at the corner so that the tool proceeds toward the corner in one of the machined segment surfaces and away from the corner in the other one of the machined segment surfaces.
Manufacturing method of turbine housing
In an inner pipe assembly step, sheet-metal-made inner-pipe divided bodies and a cast inner-pipe divided body are connected to assemble an inner pipe. In a center flange connecting step, the sheet-metal-made inner-pipe divided bodies are connected to a center flange. In an outer pipe connecting step, an outer pipe covering the inner pipe is connected to the center flange and an exhaust-air-inlet-side flange. In a masking step, at least one of: a connected portion between the sheet-metal-made inner-pipe divided bodies and the cast inner-pipe divided body; or an opening portion between the outer pipe and the inner pipe is sealed. In a cutting machining step, an inner wall surface of the cast inner-pipe divided body facing the turbine wheel is subjected to a cutting machining after the masking step.
Feather seals with leakage metering
A seal assembly includes a first feather seal with a first cooling hole extending through the first feather seal. The seal assembly also includes a second feather seal adjacent to the first feather seal. The second feather seal includes a second cooling hole extending through the second feather seal. The first cooling hole is positioned over at least a portion of the second cooling hole.
Unified curved beam bearing damper
A gas turbine engine component includes a ring comprising a single-piece component having an outer peripheral surface and an inner peripheral surface that surrounds an engine center axis, a plurality of outer diameter pedestals formed in the outer peripheral surface and circumferentially spaced apart from each other, and a plurality of inner diameter pedestals formed in the inner peripheral surface and circumferentially spaced apart from each other. A plurality of recesses are formed in the outer peripheral surface and are circumferentially spaced apart from each other.
Outlet guide vane for an aircraft turbomachine, comprising a lubricant cooling passage equipped with flow disturbing studs with simplified manufacturing
The invention relates to a guide vane intended to be arranged in all or part of an air flow of an aircraft bypass turbomachine fan, the vane comprising an aerodynamic part equipped with at least one interior lubricant cooling passage delimited in part by an intrados wall and an extrados wall of the vane, there being flow-disturbing lugs, made as one piece with one of the intrados and extrados walls, passing across the passage. According to the invention, in any plane of section passing orthogonally through the lugs, the space defined between these lugs has a geometry defined exclusively by a set of annulus shapes of the same dimensions, partially overlapping one another and each in part delimiting at least two of these lugs.
Method for manufacturing centrifugal rotary machine and method for manufacturing impeller thereof
When a closed type impeller is manufactured from one block, a rough cutting process of cutting a flow path region of a block using a rough cutting tool, and a residue-cutting process of cutting a cutting residue in the cutting process using a residue-cutting tool are executed. The residue-cutting tool has a tool main body having a blade formed on an outer periphery thereof, and a handle having the tool main body fixed to a distal end thereof. A maximum outer diameter of the tool main body is larger than a minimum outer diameter of the handle. Further, the tool main body has a rear blade directed in a direction including a tool rear side component.
