An exhaust valve comprises a tubular body extending along an axis, and defining a flow section perpendicular to the axis, a flap arranged in the tubular body across the flow section, and a shaft rigidly connected to the flap. The shaft is rotatable between a closed orientation in which the flap closes the flow section and an open orientation in which the flap frees the flow section. A proximal, respectively distal, housing is rigidly connected to the tubular body and houses a proximal, respectively distal, bearing ensuring a rotary interface between the tubular body and a proximal, respectively distal, end of the shaft. A rotary actuator is capable of moving the shaft alternately between the closed orientation and the open orientation, and is arranged outside the tubular body and rigidly connected to the proximal end of the shaft. The proximal and/or distal housing is separate from the tubular body.

A valve assembly for an active clearance control (ACC) system in a gas turbine engine. The assembly comprises a first valve disc positioned within a first outlet duct, a second valve disc positioned within the second outlet duct, and a shaft coupled to the first and second valve discs such that rotation of the shaft rotates both the first and second valve discs within the first and second outlet ducts, respectively. A flow control member in the second outlet duct surrounds the second valve disc, and is configured to restrict fluid flow passing through the second outlet duct to a greater extent than the fluid flow passing through the first outlet duct for a given degree of rotation of the first and second valve discs. A corresponding ACC system, gas turbine and method is also provided.

Valve body insert apparatus and related methods are described. An example method includes inserting a first sleeve in a drive shaft bore of a valve body. The first sleeve is to line a first inner surface of the drive shaft bore to protect the first inner surface of the drive shaft bore from corrosion or erosion, and the first sleeve defining a first opening to receive a drive shaft. The method includes applying cladding to wetted surfaces of the valve body defining a fluid flow passageway and to at least a portion adjacent a first end of the first sleeve positioned in the fluid flow passageway, where cladding material is not applied to portions of the first inner surface of the drive shaft bore covered by the first sleeve.
