Abstract: A self-pumping fuel injector includes a pump and a motor for, in-part, delivering fuel to a combustor at higher fuel pressures during start-up and ramping-up conditions. Each pump may include a stationary flow interuptor that intermittently and variably supplies fuel to a rotating spindle that, in-turn, expels the fuel into a nozzle of the injector for improve fuel spray distributions.

Abstract: A combustor section of a gas turbine engine includes a combustor having a combustor inlet, and a combustor bypass passage having a passage inlet located upstream of the combustor inlet, the combustor bypass passage configured to divert a selected bypass airflow around the combustor. A combustor bypass valve is located at the combustor bypass passage to control the selected bypass airflow along the combustor bypass passage. The combustor bypass valve including a valve element configured to rotate about an engine central longitudinal axis A to move one or more valve openings relative to one or more bypass passage openings.

Abstract: A decoupled gas turbine engine includes a high spool assembly and a low spool assembly each having a rotational axis that are spaced from one-another. The engine further includes a combustor that may have a centerline spaced from the rotational axes of each spool assembly. Turning ducts of the engine are configured to re-direct airflow from one spool assembly to the next and/or between one spool assembly and the combustor.

Abstract: Methods for manufacturing combustor panels of gas turbine engines and combustor panels are described. The methods include defining a particle deposit near-steady state for at least a portion of a combustor panel, the particle deposit near-steady state representative of a build-up of particles on the at least a portion of the combustor panel during use, generating a template based on the defined particle deposit near-steady state, wherein the template includes one or more augmentation elements based on the representative of build-up of particles, and forming a combustor panel based on the template, wherein the formed combustor panel includes one or more augmentation elements defined in the template.
