  • Patent number: 10669937
    Abstract: A heat exchange system for a power gear box mechanically coupling at least low pressure compressor stage with at least one turbine stage in a turbo engine, in particular an aircraft turbo engine, is provided. At least one heat transfer device is enclosed, embedded and/or attached with the casing of the power gear box, wherein at least one airflow is directed to the at least one heat transfer device for thermally controlling the power gear box.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 9, 2016
    Date of Patent: June 2, 2020
    Assignee: ROLLS-ROYCE DEUTSCHLAND LTD & CO KG
    Inventors: Thierry Sibilli, Bjorn Ulrichsohn, Jonas Schwengler
  • Patent number: 10605254
    Abstract: A bearing element for at least one adjustable guide vane of a turbomachine, in particular an aircraft engine, is provided. The bearing element comprising a porous matrix made of carbon and/or graphite and at least one metallic phase or a metal salt that is at least partially arranged inside the pores of the matrix, so that what results is a metal-infiltrated or a metal-salt-infiltrated material.

  • Patent number: 10041360
    Abstract: A turbomachine component of a stationary turbomachine includes a substrate made of high alloyed 10% to 18% chromium steels or titanium alloys or nickel base alloys or cobalt base alloys with a substrate surface and an erosion and corrosion resistant coating system. The coating system includes a first layer, which is deposited on the substrate surface of the turbomachine component and acts as a corrosion resistant layer and a second layer. The second layer is deposited on the first layer and acts as an erosion resistant layer, wherein the first layer is a Zr single layer and the second layer is a W/WC multilayer.
