  • Publication number: 20120128472
    Abstract: A turbomachine nozzle segment includes a vane having a first end extending to a second end through an airfoil portion. An outer member is positioned at the first end of the vane. The outer member includes a mounting element configured and disposed to secure the turbomachine nozzle segment to a turbomachine. An inner member is positioned at the second end of the vane. The inner member includes an upstream section and a downstream section. An upstream diaphragm member extends substantially radially outwardly from the inner member at the upstream section, and a downstream diaphragm member extends substantially radially outwardly from the inner member at the downstream section. Each of the upstream diaphragm member and down stream member includes an outer surface and an inner surface. One of the outer surface and inner surface of each of the upstream diaphragm member and downstream diaphragm member includes a cartridge mounting member.

  • Patent number: 6887041
    Abstract: The third stage nozzle has an airfoil profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table I wherein X and Y values are in inches and define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z and Z is a non-dimensional value from 0 to 1 convertible to Z distances in inches by multiplying the Z values of Table I by a height of the airfoil in inches. The profile sections at the Z distances are joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape. The X and Y distances may be scalable to provide a scaled-up or scaled-down airfoil for the nozzle. The nominal airfoil given by the X, Y and Z distances lies within an envelope of ±0.100 inches.
