  • Patent number: 8402770
    Abstract: A turbine engine including a channel for injecting a cooling air flow of a high-pressure turbine disk, opening into a cavity that is substantially isolated, upstream, from a cavity in which an air flow sampled at the output of a high-pressure compressor circulates, by a first labyrinth seal, and downstream, from a cavity communicating with the primary flow of the turbine engine, by a second labyrinth seal. The turbine engine includes channels communicating with the injection channel and opening through a static part of the first labyrinth seal between two lips of that seal, so as to allow an air flow coming from the injection channel to be injected between the lips.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8336317
    Abstract: A turbine engine, including a final centrifugal compressor stage associated with a diffuser for supplying air to a combustion chamber, and a ventilation element for ventilating a high-pressure turbine wheel, is disclosed. The ventilation element includes an injection element for injecting air onto the wheel and a take-up element for taking up a flow for cooling the impeller of the compressor, where the take-up element has a labyrinth seal mounted at the outlet of the injection element, and the air outlet orifices are installed between the injection element and the labyrinth seal and leading upstream of the turbine wheel.

  • Patent number: 7364402
    Abstract: A turbine module for a gas turbine engine includes at least one turbine disk and a disk-shaped component mounted on the turbine disk upstream relative to the gas flow. The module can be assembled to the compressor of the engine, wherein the component is preassembled to the turbine disk, before the module is assembled to the compressor, by bolting to an attachment flange fixedly attached to the turbine disk.

  • Patent number: 6857851
    Abstract: The invention relates to an axial compressor disk for a turbomachine, the disk including a bleed system for bleeding air centripetally from the compressor stream in order to cool a turbine, said bleed system comprising channels formed outside the working section of the disk and parallel to said section in an extra thickness projecting away from said working section on a face of said disk, wherein the bleed channels are axially open over substantially their entire radial extent.
