Abstract:
Hanger assemblies for coupling heat shield liners to cases of gas turbine engines are disclosed. The disclosed hanger assemblies include a pivoting joint coupled between a first segment and a second segment. The first segment is coupled to the liner by a liner attachment assembly and the second segment is coupled to the case by a case attachment assembly. At least one of the liner attachment assembly or the case attachment assembly permits translational movement of the first or second segments respectively with respect to the liner or case to accommodate for thermal expansion in the axial direction.
