  • Patent number: 10900366
    Abstract: A turbomachine assembly and, in particular, a low-pressure compressor of an aircraft turbojet engine includes an annular row of upstream vanes with trailing edges extending radially from an upstream support; an annular row of downstream vanes with leading edges axially facing the trailing edges and extending radially from a downstream support; an annular passageway delimited by the upstream support and the downstream support. The downstream support has a profile with: an upstream portion delimiting the annular passageway forming an annular slide, a downstream portion axially at the level of downstream vanes, and a connecting arc connecting the upstream portion to the downstream portion. The connecting arc is arranged downstream of the leading edges.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10087838
    Abstract: A device and a method of temporarily increasing power of at least a first turbine engine is disclosed. The device includes a coolant liquid tank and a first injection circuit connected to the tank and leading to at least one injection nozzle suitable for being installed upstream from at least one compressor stage of the first turbine engine. This first injection circuit includes at least a first flow valve configured to open when a pressure exceeds a predetermined threshold compared with a downstream pressure from at least one compressor stage of a second turbine engine so as to enable the coolant liquid to flow towards the injection nozzle of the first injection circuit.

  • Patent number: 9964033
    Abstract: A turboshaft engine including a low-pressure compressor, a high-pressure compressor, a low-pressure turbine, a high-pressure turbine, and a regulator for regulating a speed of rotation of the low-pressure turbine to a speed that is substantially constant. The low-pressure turbine is coupled by a first shaft to the high-pressure compressor, while the high-pressure turbine is coupled by a second shaft to the low-pressure compressor.
