Abstract: An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a vane assembly having an inner platform and an airfoil section extending from the inner platform. A first combustor panel extends at least partially along the vane from upstream of the vane, and a blade outer air seal extends at least partially along the vane from downstream of the vane. The first combustor panel and the blade outer air seal define a platform gap located between a leading edge of the airfoil section of the vane and a trailing edge of the airfoil section of the vane.

Abstract: An actuation system according to various embodiments can include an actuation ring having a first end and a second end separated by a gap, the actuation ring being configured to be coupled to a blade outer air seal (BOAS). The actuation system can also include an actuator coupled to at least one of the first end or the second end and configured to adjust a size of the gap such that a tip clearance between the BOAS and a blade tip is reduced in response to the size of the gap being reduced.

Abstract: A combustor for a gas turbine engine includes a combustor shell having a shell opening therethrough, a combustor panel having a stud attached thereto, the stud extending through the shell opening. The stud includes a standoff to define an intermediate passage between the combustor shell and the combustor panel. A retainer is attached to the stud. A washer surrounds the stud and is positioned between the retainer and the combustor shell. The washer at least partially defines a cooling flow passage configured to direct a cooling airflow through the shell opening to impinge the cooling flow on at least one of the stud or the standoff.

Abstract: A turbine engine optical system includes a plurality of viewing ports in an engine case that are circumferentially spaced from one-another. At least one optical device is optically coupled to the ports for viewing an internal chamber defined by the engine case and for depicting at least spatial temperature distributions. The chamber may be an exhaust chamber and the controller may have the capability to correlate events in the exhaust chamber to events in an upstream combustor chamber and may thereby adjust operating parameters of a fuel system of the combustor.

Abstract: A fuel injector providing a flow of fuel having a variable swirl and/or variable effective area is disclosed. The fuel injector may have a nozzle defining a mixing chamber having an outlet proximate a centerline of the mixing chamber, a first fuel line in fluid communication with the mixing chamber and a second fuel line in fluid communication with the mixing chamber. The first fuel line may terminate in a tangential fuel inlet positioned tangential to the centerline of the nozzle, while the second fuel line may terminate in a radial fuel inlet positioned radial to the centerline of the nozzle.

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.
