  • Patent number: 11480062
    Abstract: A stator vane includes an airfoil having an airfoil shape. The airfoil shape has a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in one of Table I, Table II, Table III, Table IV, Table V, Table VI, Table VII, or Table VIII. 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 scaling factor of the airfoil in the unit of distance. The X and Y values, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each Z value. The airfoil profile sections at Z values are joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

  • Patent number: 10774844
    Abstract: A system is provided, including an airfoil. The airfoil includes a first suction portion of a nominal airfoil profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y, and Z of a suction side as set forth in TABLE I to a maximum of three decimal places, wherein the X and Y values of the suction side are coordinate values that couple together to define suction side sections of the first suction portion of the nominal airfoil profile at each Z coordinate value, the suction side sections of the first suction portion of the nominal airfoil profile are coupled together to define the first suction portion, the airfoil includes an airfoil length along a Z axis, the first suction portion comprises a first portion length along the Z axis, the first portion length is less than or equal to the airfoil length, and the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y, and Z are non-dimensional values convertible to dimensional distances.

  • Publication number: 20180147714
    Abstract: This application provides tools for use with gas turbine engines. Example tools may include multi joint tools for use in a complex environment that has accessibility constraints, such as with a gas turbine engine. The multi joint tools may include a number of pie cut cylinders connected in series. The number of pie cut cylinders may include a connecting member and a receiving portion, where the number of pie cut cylinders is connected by a first connecting member of a first pie cut cylinder engaged with a first receiving portion of a second pie cut cylinder. The multi joint tools may include an end cut cylinder forming a first end of the multi-joint tool. The end cut cylinder may include a second connecting member engaged with a second receiving portion of the first pie cut cylinder.
