  • Patent number: 12065936
    Abstract: An inter-turbine duct is positioned between a high pressure turbine and a low pressure turbine of a gas turbine engine. The inter-turbine duct includes an inner annular wall and an outer annular wall spaced apart from the inner annular wall along a radial direction to define an annular flow passage. The inter-turbine duct includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced vanes positioned within the flow passage and at least one temperature probe is positioned upstream of the vanes at a circumferential location that is between thirty and seventy percent of a circumferential distance between the leading edges of adjacent vanes.

  • Patent number: 11591969
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a turbine engine (10) defining an axial direction and a radial direction. The turbine engine includes a fan or propeller assembly (14) comprising a gearbox; an engine core (20) comprising one or more rotors, wherein at least one of the rotors defines an axially extended annular hub; and a flexible coupling shaft (100) defining a first end and a second end along the axial direction, wherein the first end is connected to the engine core and the second end is connected to the gearbox, and further wherein the flexible coupling shaft extends from the one or more rotors to the gearbox in the axial direction and inward of the hub in the radial direction.
