Abstract:
A hybrid diffuser case for a gas turbine engine includes an outer diffuser case wall that extends downstream from an annular outer pre-diffuser case shroud. An inner diffuser case wall extends downstream from an annular inner pre-diffuser case shroud. A multiple of struts extend between the annular outer pre-diffuser case shroud and the annular inner pre-diffuser case shroud.
Abstract:
A cooling arrangement for a turbine engine includes a cooling source and first and second structures. A ceramic-based composite cooling tube fluidly provides a fluid connection between the first and second structures. The cooling tube is configured to transfer a cooling fluid from the cooling source to the second structure.
Abstract:
A cooling system for a fuel injector system of a gas turbine engine has a heat exchanger for cooling a portion of diffuser case air and then routing the cooled diffuser case air through a sleeve that surrounds a fuel injector conduit located in at least the diffuser case plenum for minimizing fuel heat-up rates in the conduit. By minimizing fuel temperatures within the injector conduit, coking accumulation is thereby eliminated or reduced.
Abstract:
An assembly is provided for a turbine engine. The assembly includes a fuel injector and a fuel vaporizer. A nozzle of the fuel injector is adapted to direct fuel to impinge against the fuel vaporizer. The fuel vaporizer is adapted to substantially vaporize the impinging fuel.
Abstract:
A swirler for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a swirler outer body with a male snap component and/or female snap component of a snap-fit interface defined around a swirler central longitudinal axis. A bulkhead assembly for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a swirler mounted to a bulkhead support shell through a snap-fit interface.
