TURBINE CENTER FRAME FAIRING ASSEMBLY |
| 摘要 |
A fairing assembly is provided which is located between a frame hub and an engine casing. The assembly provides for use of a metallic structure in combination with a light weight low alpha material in order to improve engine efficiency and performance. Relative growth between the dissimilar materials is compensated for by a flexible bracket which provides biasing force on one of the assembly components in a cold engine condition as well as allowing for growth at the high temperature operating conditions of the engine. |

1. A fairing assembly, comprising:
a frame hub which is spaced radially inwardly from a casing; a metal strut extending from said frame hub radially outwardly toward said casing; and a faring formed of a low coefficient of thermal expansion material, said fairing extending between said casing and said hub and disposed over said metal strut; wherein said fairing is biased in a radial direction by a flexing bracket which compensates for relative thermal growth between said fairing and one of said frame hub and said casing. |
