Title: Harry Kington and a Self-Cooling Gas Turbine Seal
Introduction
Harry Kington is an inventor associated with Phoenix, Arizona, and Honeywell Aerospace US LLC. His patent work addresses a challenge in gas turbine engines: protecting seals exposed to high temperatures while maintaining effective separation between engine regions. Kington is credited with 1 patent.
Latest Patents
Kington’s listed patent is “Gas Turbine Engines Having Self-Cooling Seals and Methods of Operating the Same.” It describes a seal positioned between two engine components, one exposed to a high-temperature environment and the other not. The seal separates a cavity into higher- and lower-pressure regions.
The seal has an annular body with an S-shaped cross-section, designed to press against both components. Holes through the body direct fluid toward one contact portion to help cool it. The patent also describes methods for operating gas turbine engines equipped with these self-cooling seals.
Career Highlights
Kington’s listed invention focuses on seal design and thermal management in gas turbine engines. The patent’s approach combines a spring-like S-shaped structure with directed fluid flow, aiming to cool a contact area while the seal maintains contact with both engine components.
Collaborations
Kington’s listed coworkers include William Weiss and Timothy Darling. His company affiliation is Honeywell Aerospace US LLC.
Conclusion
Harry Kington’s patent describes a gas turbine seal that uses its shape and directed fluid flow to address cooling and sealing needs in demanding engine conditions.
