Abstract: Disclosed is a lubricant supply system, for a bearing damper in a bearing housing, the bearing housing in an engine bearing compartment of a gas turbine engine, the bearing compartment rotatably supporting an engine component, including a first interface, a second interface, a bearing supply conduit fluidly coupled to the second interface and extending from the first interface to the second interface, the bearing supply conduit supplying lubricant to the bearing housing, a damper supply conduit located within the bearing supply conduit, extending between the interfaces, the damper supply conduit supplying lubricant to the bearing damper, and fluid in the bearing supply conduit is capable of insulting fluid in the damper supply conduit 108 from heat transferred through the interfaces.

Abstract: An airfoil includes a cooling air passage for receiving a cooling air flow. A chevron including a first rib and a second rib extends from a common tip is disposed within the cooling passage for generating a turbulent flow to improve heat transfer. The chevron includes an angle between the first rib and the second rib that is greater than 90 degrees.

Abstract: A lubricant supply system for a bearing damper in an engine bearing compartment of a gas turbine engine, the bearing compartment rotatably supporting an engine component and including a drain system for purging excess lubricant, including a first interface, a second interface, a drain conduit fluidly coupled to the first interface and extending from the first interface to the second interface, the drain conduit receiving fluid, including excess lubricant and lubricant purging air, from the first interface, a supply conduit located within the drain conduit, extending between the interfaces the supply conduit providing lubricant to the bearing damper and fluid in the drain conduit is capable of insulting fluid in the supply conduit from heat transferred through the interfaces.

Abstract: Disclosed is a lubricant supply system for a bearing damper in an engine bearing compartment of a gas turbine engine, the bearing compartment rotatably supporting an engine component, including a first interface, a second interface, a supply conduit fluidly coupled to the second interface and extending from the first interface to the second interface, the conduit supplying lubricant to the bearing damper and including a first discrete cavity, extending proximate to the first interface, a second discrete cavity, extending proximate to the second interface, the discrete cavities, mutually spaced to be substantially outside a core gas path C of engine, the discrete cavities being air sealed against the supply conduit, insulating fluid in the supply conduit from heat transferred from the interfaces.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine component includes a structure having a cooling passage providing upstream and downstream portions separated from one another by an inner wall and fluidly connected by a bend. First and second trip strips are respectively arranged in the upstream and downstream portions. The first trip strips are arranged at a first spacing from one another. The second trip strips are arranged at a second spacing from one another. A turbulence promoter is arranged in the bend and at a third spacing from the first trip strips that is different than the first spacing. The turbulence promoter is arranged at a fourth spacing from the second trip strips that is different than the second spacing.
