  • Publication number: 20160298647
    Abstract: A compressor stator assembly includes a stator casing having a plurality of stator casing slots and a set of stator portions insertable into the stator casing slots. The stator casing and the set of stator portions are configured such that the set of stator portions only assembles to the stator casing in a single stage of the stator casing, or in a single configuration. The set of stator portions includes a plurality of stator vanes, and the stator vanes have a stator vane characteristic that varies for each stage in the stator casing. The stator vane characteristic is at least one of, a radial height of a forward sidewall, a radial height of an aft sidewall or an axial length.

  • Patent number: 9017019
    Abstract: An article of manufacture having a nominal airfoil profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in a scalable table, the scalable table selected from the group of tables consisting of TABLES 1-11, wherein the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values convertible to dimensional distances by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a number, and wherein X and Y are coordinates which, when connected by continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each Z height, the airfoil profile sections at each Z height being joined with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

  • Publication number: 20140030083
    Abstract: An article of manufacture is provided having a first component configured for use with a stator of a turbomachine. The first component is configured for attachment to a second component. The second component is also configured for use with the stator of the turbomachine. The first component is configured to substantially reduce the possibility of installation in an undesired stage of the stator by modification of at least one characteristic of the first component. The second component is configured to substantially reduce the possibility of installation in an undesired stage of the stator by modification of at least one characteristic of the second component.
