GAS TURBINE ENGINE RING OR CIRCULAR ROW, CORRESPONDING ASSEMBLY AND DESIGNING METHOD
A circular row 11 of non-uniformally spaced vanes 15 includes only one first group (G1) and only one second group (G2) of adjacent vanes 15, unequal first and second spacing (S1, S2) between adjacent vanes 15 in the first and second groups (G1, G2), and first spacing (S1) greater than second spacing...

Zusammenfassung: | A circular row 11 of non-uniformally spaced vanes 15 includes only one first group (G1) and only one second group (G2) of adjacent vanes 15, unequal first and second spacing (S1, S2) between adjacent vanes 15 in the first and second groups (G1, G2), and first spacing (S1) greater than second spacing (S2). An embodiment with second group (G2) including only three adjacent vanes 15. Second spacing (S2) may be about 25%-35% smaller than a nominal uniform spacing (S) used as a design parameter for designing spacing of the non-uniformly spaced stator vanes 15. Circular row 11 may be sectored. A gas turbine engine section may include one or more rings or circular rows 11 of fixed and/or variable non-uniformally spaced vanes 15. Method for designing non-uniform vane spacing for circular row 11 includes determining nominal uniform spacing (S) and forming first spacing (S1) and second spacing (S2) from nominal uniform spacing (S) of vanes 15. |
