Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a combustor capable of improving a heat transfer, hardly increasing a pressure drop. SOLUTION: This combustor for gas turbine engine comprises a plurality of liner segments 12 and a support shell. The support shell comprises an inner surface, an outer surface, a plurality of mounting holes, and a plurality of impingement cooling holes extendedly passed through the support shell. Each of the liner segments 12 comprises a panel 24 and a plurality of mounting studs 32. The panel 24 comprises a front surface, a rear surface 36, and a plurality of cooling holes 38 extendedly passed through these surfaces. The rear surface 36 of the panel 24 comprises a surface profile for preventing the drop of a pressure passing in the combustor from substantially increasing and increasing the heat transfer of the liner segments 12.

Abstract:
A method for casting a workpiece comprising the steps of applying a protective coating (21) to a base core (10) the base core comprising, a metal strip (19) comprising a generally planar expanse, a plurality of tabs (17) arranged in a pattern upon the metal strip each of the tabs comprising a base end (11), a terminus end (13), and a tab shaft (15) extending from the base end to the terminus end wherein each of the tabs is angularly displaceable about each the base end of the tabs, injecting a molding substance about the tabs of the base core, encapsulating the base core in a shell (23), removing the molding substance, casting the base core, and removing the base core.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates generally to a system for fan nacelle inlet flow control in a gas turbine engine, the nacelle comprising a nacelle inlet cowl including an inlet lip disposed at a leading edge of the nacelle inlet cowl, an inner surface extending aft from the inlet lip, and an outer surface extending aft from the inlet lip and positioned radially outward of the inner surface; and at least one flow control passage extending through the nacelle inlet cowl, each of the at least one flow control passage including a flow control passage inlet, disposed on the inlet lip, and a flow control passage outlet; wherein air may flow into the flow control passage inlet, through the flow control passage, and exits the flow control passage outlet.
Abstract:
A unitary one-piece hub has first and second rings and a midsection arranged between the first and second rings. The midsection includes a plurality of windows configured to receive a plurality of cross members. The windows include a lip configured to surround the cross members. A gas turbine engine and a method of providing a hub for a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.
