GAS TURBINE ENGINE ASSEMBLIES WITH RECIRCULATED HOT GAS INGESTION

摘要

A gas turbine engine assembly includes a housing including an annular duct wall that at least partially defines a mainstream hot gas flow path configured to receive mainstream hot gas flow. The assembly further includes a stator assembly including a stator vane that extends into the mainstream hot gas flow path and a turbine rotor assembly downstream of the stator assembly that includes a turbine disk and a turbine blade extending from the turbine disk into the mainstream hot gas flow path. The stator assembly and turbine assembly define a turbine disk cavity, and the turbine disk cavity includes a recirculation cavity configured to recirculate gas ingested from the mainstream hot gas flow path back into the mainstream hot gas flow path.
