  • Patent number: 11112114
    Abstract: Combustor panels of gas turbine engines and gas turbine engines are described. The combustor panels include a hot side configured to be exposed to combustion within a gas turbine engine, a cold side opposite the hot side of the combustor panel, the cold side configured to receive cooling flow thereon, and a peak-valley gridded pattern formed on the cold side, the peak-valley gridded pattern comprising a plurality of recessed cells arranged in a grid pattern, with each recessed cell having a peak, angled sidewalls, and an effusion hole located at a bottom of the angled sidewalls.

  • Patent number: 9267810
    Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying navigational information are provided. An exemplary navigational device can include a processor, a memory, a user interface, a positioning system, and a network interface. The processor can adjust a scale of a map displayed on the display to reflect the minimum of a first distance that can be travelled over a period of time at a current speed, a second distance between the current position of the navigational device and a first location at which a driving maneuver should be performed, and a third distance between the current position of the navigational device and a second location at which a traffic condition exists. An exemplary method includes adjusting a map based on a comparison of a plurality of horizons respectively providing distances beyond which navigational information is less useful.
