Abstract: According to an aspect, a gas turbine engine includes a turbine section with a turbine case and a plurality of turbine blades within the turbine case. The gas turbine engine also includes an active clearance control system with an active clearance control cooling air supply, a valve pneumatically coupled to the active clearance control cooling air supply, and a controller. The controller is configured to determine an active cooling control schedule adjustment based on a condition of the gas turbine engine, operate the active clearance control system according to an active cooling control schedule as modified by the active cooling control schedule adjustment, apply a decay function to the active cooling control schedule adjustment to reduce an effect on the active cooling control schedule adjustment, and resume operating the active clearance control system according to the active cooling control schedule based on an active cooling control condition being met.

Abstract: A rotor blade for a gas turbine, in particular an aircraft gas turbine, having a blade root element and a stream deflection portion adjoining the blade root element (12) in the longitudinal direction of the blade (RR); respective centroids (24) of blade cross-sectional areas of the stream deflection portion residing on a common stacking axis (26). It is provided that, starting from a first centroid (24) of a first blade cross-sectional area adjoining the blade root element (12), the stacking axis (26) extend within a cone (28) whose apex resides within the first centroid (24), and whose cone height (KH) extends orthogonally to the plane of the blade cross-sectional area; the angle (?) of the cone (28) being greater than 0° and smaller than or equal to 4°; preferably greater than or equal to 0.5° and smaller than or equal to 2°.

Abstract: A guide vane segment 10 for a turbomachine includes a radially inner shroud plate 13 having a shroud plate surface 14 that is adapted to be configured in the turbomachine to face a rotor blade 20 adjacent to the guide vane segment, and thereby essentially extend along an outer conical surface K1 whose cone axis coincides with the axis of rotation A of a rotor shaft 30. In a radially inner region, a rotor blade 20 for a turbomachine has a base plate 23 having a base plate surface 24 that is adapted to be configured in the turbomachine to face a shroud of a guide vane row 10 adjacent to the rotor blade and thereby essentially extend along an outer conical surface K2 whose cone axis coincides with the axis of rotation A of a rotor shaft 30.

Abstract: The invention relates to a run-in coating (10) for an outer air seal of a turbomachine, especially of an aero engine, comprising a substrate (12) of segmented form which carries a honeycomb structure (14) with an run-in surface (15) to face rotor blades of a rotor of the turbomachine, wherein a radial thickness of the honeycomb structure (14) varies in the circumferential direction. The invention furthermore relates to an outer air seal for a turbomachine and also to a turbomachine with an outer air seal.

Abstract: A gas turbine stage including a rotor blade array having a plurality of rotor blades and an adjacent stator vane array having a plurality of stator vanes which have leading edges facing the rotor blade array. In a first radial position of a rear face of the rotor blade array, a minimum axial gap is formed between this rear face and an opposite first contact region a stator vane leading edges, and in a second radial position of the rear face different from the first position, the minimum axial gap is formed between the rear face and an opposite second contact region. Between the first and second contact regions, this stator vane leading edge has an axial offset of no more than 0.6% of a radial height of the stator vane leading edge.
