A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine has an airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced-apart pressure and suction sides to provide an external airfoil surface extending from a platform in a spanwise direction to a tip. The external airfoil surface is formed in substantial conformance with multiple cross-sectional profiles of the airfoil defined by a set of Cartesian coordinates set forth in Table 1, the Cartesian coordinates provided by an axial coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, a circumferential coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, and a span location.

A turbine vane for a gas turbine engine has an airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced-apart pressure and suction sides to provide an external airfoil surface. The surface is formed in substantial conformance with multiple cross-sectional profiles of the airfoil defined by a set of Cartesian coordinates set forth in Table 1, the Cartesian coordinates provided by an axial coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, a circumferential coordinate scaled by a local axial chord, and a span location.

A shroud for a turbine blade includes a shroud body having an outer side and opposite first and second Z-shaped side edges; a first sealing fin and a second sealing fin extending outwardly from the outer side and spaced apart from each other in a streamwise direction, the first and second sealing fins extending between the first and second side edges of the shroud body; a first ridge extending radially outwardly from the outer side, the first ridge extending from and connecting the first and second sealing fins along the first side edge and having a radial height which varies; and a second ridge extending radially outwardly from the outer side, the second ridge extending from and connecting the first and second sealing fins along the second side edge and having a radial height which varies.

Shroud interlock

The gas turbine engine part can have a heat sink portion having a surface having a plurality of protrusions distributed over an area of the surface, the protrusions projecting away from the surface and including protrusions being adjacent to one another and collectively forming an identifier. A flow of cooling air can be directed to the protrusions forming the identifier to cool the part.

Gas turbine engine, part thereof, and associated method of operation

A compressor turbine includes a series of compressor turbine blades each having an airfoil with a profile substantially in accordance with at least an intermediate portion of the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table 2. The X and Y values are distances, which when smoothly connected by an appropriate continuing curve, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The profile sections at each distance Z are joined smoothly to one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

A power turbine includes a first stage vane having an airfoil with a cold nominal profile substantially in accordance with at least an intermediate portion of the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table 2. The X and Y values are distances, which when smoothly connected by an appropriate continuing curve, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The profile sections at each distance Z are joined smoothly to one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

Power turbine vane airfoil profile

An integrated strut and turbine vane nozzle (ISV) comprising: inner and outer duct walls defining a flow passage therebetween, an array of circumferentially spaced-apart struts extending radially across the flow passage, and an array of circumferentially spaced-apart vanes extending radially across the flow passage. At least one of the struts is aligned in the circumferential direction with an associated one of the vanes and forms therewith an integrated strut-vane airfoil. The adjacent vanes on opposed sides of the integrated strut-vane airfoil have uneven axial chords relative to the other vanes.

A power turbine includes a first stage blade having an airfoil with a cold un-coated nominal profile substantially in accordance with at least an intermediate portion of the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in Table 2. The X and Y values are distances, which when smoothly connected by an appropriate continuing curve, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z. The profile sections at each distance Z are joined smoothly to one another to form a complete airfoil shape.
