  • Load transfer in turbine exhaust case
    Patent number: 10815832
    Abstract: A turbine exhaust case is provided for a gas turbine engine. This turbine exhaust case includes a first gas turbine engine exhaust case, a second gas turbine engine exhaust case, a strut and a fastener. The second gas turbine engine exhaust case includes a flange and a bracket. The strut is coupled to the first case and the second case. The fastener fastens the flange and the strut. The second gas turbine engine exhaust case is co-axial with the first gas turbine engine exhaust case. The strut contacts the bracket when the engine is powered-on.
