Abstract:
A combustor wall assembly has a heat shield and a supporting shell with a cooling cavity defined therebetween. A grommet generally includes a wall defining a dilution hole isolated from the cooling cavity, and a flange projecting radially outward from the wall and into the cooling cavity. The flange is space from the heat shield and a cooling channel is defined between the wall and the heat shield that communicates with the cavity for cooling the wall proximate to a combustion chamber.
Abstract:
A disk-seal arrangement for a gas turbine engine rotor includes a blade retention disk having a longitudinally opening slot therein and a seal disk juxtaposed to said blade retention disk and a single anti-rotation tab received within the blade retention disk slot. The seal disk also includes a pair of balance slots disposed immediately adjacent the antirotation tab to offset the weight thereof for preserving rotor balance. A split ring is disposed longitudinally between the blade retention and seal disks for reacting longitudinal loading therebetween. The ends of the split ring seat against side surfaces of the antirotation between the split ring and the blade retention and seal disks.
Abstract:
A combustor component defining a dilution hole configuration for a combustor wall assembly of a gas turbine engine has first and second dilution holes that communicate radially with one-another and with respect to respective centerlines of each dilution hole. In operation, each dilution hole forms a respective jet stream along respective centerlines for flowing cooling air into a combustion chamber.
