Abstract:
A passive centrifugal valve for a gas turbine engine. The passive centrifugal valve includes an inner section with a flow control inlet orifice, a cantilevered valve adjacent to the flow control inlet orifice, and an outer section with a seal land geometry that operates to at least partially support the cantilevered valve in response to a first centrifugal force that deflects the cantilevered valve away from the flow control inlet orifice.
