20090155050 | DIVERGENT TURBINE NOZZLE - A turbine nozzle includes a row of vanes extending radially in span between inner and outer bands. The vanes include opposite pressure and suction sidewalls and opposite leading and trailing edges. Each vane includes an inner pattern of inner cooling holes and an outer pattern of outer cooling holes distributed along the leading edge. The inner and outer holes diverge toward the corresponding inner and outer bands to preferentially discharge cooling air. | 06-18-2009 |
20090165301 | Method for Repairing a Turbine Nozzle Segment - A method for repairing a turbine nozzle segment includes providing a turbine nozzle segment having an enclosure with an integral discourager, removing the enclosure and/or the discourager from the turbine nozzle segment and attaching a new enclosure ad/or discourager to the turbine nozzle segment. | 07-02-2009 |
20090169360 | Turbine Nozzle Segment - A turbine nozzle segment includes a band having a flowpath side and a non-flowpath side and an enclosure disposed on the non-flowpath side of the band. A plenum may be defined between the band and the enclosure and a discourager may extend from the enclosure. | 07-02-2009 |
20100266386 | FLANGE COOLED TURBINE NOZZLE - A turbine nozzle includes outer and inner bands bounding nozzle vanes. The outer band includes an aft flange. An impingement baffle bridges the outer band and aft flange at the root thereof to provide impingement cooling. | 10-21-2010 |
20150226132 | GAS TURBINE ENGINE RING SEAL - A seal assembly for a gas turbine engine includes an engine static structure. First and second members fluidly separate cavities from one another. A seal assembly is captured by the engine structure. The seal assembly includes a carrier and a seal that engages the first member. The second member is captured by the carrier. | 08-13-2015 |
20150369409 | LOW LEAKAGE DUCT SEGMENT USING EXPANSION JOINT ASSEMBLY - A turbine shroud for incorporation in a turbine of a gas turbine engine has a plurality of butted shroud segments circumferentially arrayed to form a ring. Each of the shroud segments has an arcuate main shroud body portion, a radially inward extending annular flange attached to a first end of the main body portion, and a radially outward extending flange with a plurality of mounting apertures attached to a second end of the main shroud body portion. A first mounting aperture is sized smaller than an adjacent second mounting aperture in the radially outward extending flange. | 12-24-2015 |
