Abstract:
A flanged apparatus includes an apparatus body and a flanged mount, which includes a support pylon, a first mounting flange and a second mounting flange. The support pylon includes a first pylon segment, a second pylon segment and a routing notch. The first pylon segment is cantilevered from the apparatus body, and extends to the first mounting flange. The second pylon segment is cantilevered from the first pylon support, and extends from the first mounting flange to the second mounting flange. The routing notch extends vertically between the first pylon segment and the second pylon segment. The first mounting flange and the second mounting flange extend laterally from the support pylon, and the first mounting flange is separated from the second mounting flange by a longitudinal distance and a vertical distance.
Abstract:
A combustor seal for use between a downstream end of a combustor and a turbine vane includes a seal body and a plurality of seal alignment features. The plurality of seal alignment features projects from the seal body. The seal alignment features are arranged such that there is only one alignment of the combustor seal with the turbine vane.
Abstract:
An annular combustor includes an annular outer shell that includes a first flange that defines an inner diameter IDOS and an annular inner shell that includes a second flange that defines an outer diameter ODIS. An annular hood includes a radially outer hood flange and a radially inner hood flange. A bulkhead includes a radially outer bulkhead flange that defines an outer diameter ODB and a radially inner bulkhead flange that defines an inner diameter IDB. The first flange is secured at a radially outer joint between the radially outer hood flange and the radially outer bulkhead flange. The second flange is secured at a radially inner joint between the radially inner hood flange and the radially inner bulkhead flange. The IDOS and the ODB define a ratio R1 of IDOS/ODB that is 0.998622-1.001129, and the IDB and the ODIS define a ratio R2 of IDB/ODIS that is 0.998812-1.001388.

Abstract:
A gas turbine engine includes a convex case section. The convex case section includes an upstream case portion having a first radius, a downstream case portion having a second radius, and an intermediate case portion between the upstream case portion and the downstream case portion. The intermediate case portion has a third radius larger than the first radius and the second radius. A tension rod extends from the upstream case portion to the downstream case portion.
