Patent number: 11566525Abstract: Various embodiments of the disclosure include turbine blades and systems employing such blades. Various embodiments include a turbine blade having: an airfoil having an airfoil shape having a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in TABLE I. The Cartesian coordinate values are non-dimensional values of from 0% to 100% convertible to distances by multiplying the values by a height of the airfoil expressed in units of distance. The X and Y values are connected by smooth continuing arcs to define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z along at least a portion of the airfoil, the profile sections at the Z distances being joined smoothly with one another to form the nominal profile.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2022Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Neil Devin Ristau, Kristen Barbara Coletti, Jan Emeric Agudo

Publication number: 20220205364Abstract: A turbomachine component includes a platform, a shank, and an airfoil. The platform includes a pressure side slash face and a suction side slash face. The shank extends radially inward from the platform. The airfoil extends radially outward from the platform. The airfoil includes a leading edge and a trailing edge. A cooling circuit is defined within the shank and the airfoil. The cooling circuit further includes a plurality of exit channels disposed along the trailing edge of the airfoil. The cooling circuit further includes at least one bypass conduit that extends from an inlet disposed in the cooling circuit to an outlet positioned on the pressure side slash face. The at least one bypass conduit being positioned radially inward of the plurality of exit channels.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2020Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: Brian Stephen Gray, Michael Anthony Wondrasek, Jan Emeric Agudo

Patent number: 11136890Abstract: The rotor blade includes a platform and a shank extending radially inward from the platform. The rotor blade further includes an airfoil extending radially outward from the platform. The airfoil includes a leading edge and a trailing edge. A cooling circuit is defined within the shank and the airfoil. The cooling circuit includes a plurality of pins. The plurality of pins includes a first pin group positioned radially inward of the platform and a second pin group positioned within the airfoil. The cooling circuit further includes a plurality of exit channels disposed along the trailing edge. The plurality of exit channels is downstream from the plurality of pins. The cooling circuit also includes at least one bypass conduit extending from an inlet disposed in the cooling circuit to an outlet positioned on the trailing platform face. The at least one bypass conduit is positioned radially inward of the platform surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2020Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Jan Emeric Agudo, Martin James Jasper

Publication number: 20210293148Abstract: The present application provides a turbine rotor blade including an airfoil shape and a trailing edge shape. The airfoil shape may have a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table I, while the trailing edge profile is defined by Table II. The Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values from 0% to 100% convertible to dimensional distances expressed in a unit of distance by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a height of the airfoil in the unit of distance (e.g., inches). The X and Y values, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The airfoil profile sections at Z distances may be joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2020Publication date: September 23, 2021Inventors: Craig Allen Bielek, Martin James Jasper, Jan Emeric Agudo
