Abstract: A turbine includes a compressor to intake a fluid and to compress the fluid, a combustion chamber to heat the fluid from the compressor, a turbine section to rotate a shaft with the heated fluid from the combustion chamber, and a bypass circuit to generate a bypass flow by removing a portion of the fluid from the compressor, to heat the bypass flow, and to insert the bypass flow to the turbine section.

Abstract: An article of manufacture having a nominal airfoil profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in a scalable table, the scalable table selected from the group of tables consisting of TABLES 1-11, wherein the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values convertible to dimensional distances by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a number, and wherein X and Y are coordinates which, when connected by continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each Z height, the airfoil profile sections at each Z height being joined with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

Abstract: A turbomachine component includes a compressor stator vane having an airfoil core shape. The airfoil core shape includes a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y, and Z set forth in TABLE 1, and wherein X and Y are distances in inches which, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z in inches. The profile sections at the Z distances are joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil core shape.

Abstract: A turbomachine includes a housing that defines a flow path, and a stage arranged within the housing. The stage includes a plurality of rotating airfoil members and a first plurality of stationary airfoil members. A second plurality of stationary airfoil members is arranged directly adjacent to the first plurality of stationary airfoil members. A flow improvement system is associated with each of the first and second pluralities of stationary airfoil members. The flow improvement system establishes a predetermined clocking of each of the first plurality of stationary airfoil members relative to each of the second plurality of stationary airfoil members to improve flow characteristics along the flow path.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system includes a rotary machine and a packing seal that is disposed between rotary and stationary components of the rotary machine. The packing seal includes a pair of seal lands spaced axially along the rotary component and a seal tooth disposed at an axial position between the pair of seal lands. At least one seal land of the pair of seal lands or the seal tooth includes a curved flow-facing side and is slanted toward the curved flow-facing side.
