An active clearance control system for a gas turbine engine includes an annular piston with a multiple of piston lift lugs. A method of active blade tip clearance control for a gas turbine engine includes translating axial movement of an annular piston to radial movement of a multiple of blade outer air seal segments.

Gas turbine rapid response clearance control system with annular piston

An example active clearance control system for a gas turbine engine includes an actuator, and a case wall portion defining an aperture configured to receive the actuator. The actuator is configured to move an air seal segment, and the actuator is insertable to an installed position within the aperture through a radially outer side of the case wall portion.

Accessible rapid response clearance control system

A casting core for a Blade Outer Air Seal includes a heat exchange cavity core section in communication with a first plenum section and a second plenum section, the first plenum and the second plenum section are of a thickness greater than the heat exchange cavity section.

Reversible flow blade outer air seal

A gas turbine engine component is provided. The gas turbine engine component comprises a main body having a leading edge and a leading edge wall including an elongated transition portion extending between the leading edge and a proximate flowpath surface of the main body. The elongated transition portion has an axial length that is greater than a radial height. A gas turbine engine is also provided.
