A gas turbine engine having an improved air delivery system that includes features for pressurizing and/or cooling various components of the engine while minimizing the impact to the cycle efficiency of the engine, reducing the weight of the engine, and reducing the specific fuel consumption of the engine is provided.

Air delivery system for a gas turbine engine

An apparatus and method for mounting a turbine engine to an aircraft can include an engine core for the turbine engine including a compressor section, a combustor section, and a turbine section in flow arrangement. At least one strut couples to the engine core about a single mount plane. A structural wall at least partially defining a mainstream flow path couples to the at least one strut and passes through the compressor section and the turbine section.

Turbine engine with single wall cantilevered architecture

A method facilitates assembling a gas turbine engine with a flameholder. The method comprises coupling at least one turning vane between a radially outer casing and a radially inner casing to form a flameholder, forming at least two slots that extend substantially radially through the outer and inner casings, coupling at least one fuel injector to the flameholder, and coupling the flameholder within the augmenter.

A basesheet for use in an aircraft gas turbine engine exhaust nozzle includes a plurality of basesheet segments extending between longitudinally extending spaced apart basesheet leading and trailing edges, respectively, of the basesheet. Right and left hand basesheet side edges, respectively, extend longitudinally between the basesheet leading and trailing edges. Each basesheet segment has a panel body defined between a pair of segment side edges longitudinally extending between segment leading and trailing edges, respectively. Stiffeners having leading and trailing edge ribs at the segment leading and trailing edges of aft and forward ones of the basesheet segments, respectively, extend widthwise across the panel body between the segment side edges. The leading and trailing edge ribs are joined together only at intermediate sections of the stiffeners which are centered between left and right hand expansion sections, respectively, of the stiffener.
