Abstract: A compressor fairing segment includes a body having an upstream surface, a downstream surface, and opposing side surfaces between the upstream and downstream surfaces. A first detent on the upstream surface is shaped to conform to a first complementary fitting inside a compressor. A second detent on the downstream surface shaped to conform to a second complementary fitting inside the compressor.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices, adapted to ease installation of balance weights about a turbine are disclosed. In one embodiment, a device includes: a base including a hollow feature and an operative tip configured to connect to a balance weight; and an inner component disposed within the hollow feature of the base, the inner component including an inner tip at a first end, the inner tip configured to manipulate a set screw connected to the balance weight.

Abstract: A control system is provided. The control system includes at least one sensor positioned within a turbine engine, wherein the sensor is configured to detect at least one first operating parameter within the turbine engine. A controller is coupled to the sensor and the controller is configured to receive at least one second operating parameter of the turbine engine. The controller is also configured to control a flow of a fluid to a rotor assembly within the turbine engine such that the fluid is distributed substantially uniformly within the rotor assembly and at least one of the first operating parameter and the second operating parameter is less than at least one threshold value.
