Patent EP-2543827-A2 (EP)
Inventor: JAHN INGO HENRY JOHANNES
IPC: F01D11/00
Filed: 2012-06-28
Abstract: A sealing arrangement, for example for providing an intershaft seal between shafts 2, 4 of a gas turbine engine, comprises an air-riding sealing ring 8 disposed between runners 10, 12. A buffer fluid, such as air, is conveyed to a buffer cavity 22 through a passage 26 in the sealing ring 8. The buffer air provides a positive pressure drop along fluid-riding gaps 18, 20, preventing leakage across the sealing arrangement. The sealing ring 8 may be a split carbon ring, and measures may be provided to minimise leakage of buffer air at the split.

Abstract: A method of determining blade tip timing measurement uncertainty comprising measuring time of arrival of each of a set of blades (4) at each of a reference set of stationary probes (3). A reference blade tip parameter is derived from the measurements and the position of each of the probes. A reference condition number is calculated from the position of each of the probes and each targeted engine order, and then a mean calculated. Combinations of fewer probes are determined. For each combination, a condition number is calculated and then a mean condition number is calculated. The combination means are ordered relative to the reference mean and a predetermined number of combinations are selected. A blade tip parameter is derived for the selected combinations. Finally uncertainty of the blade tip parameter for each selected combination is calculated as a percentage of the reference blade tip parameter.

The first and second wavelength bands differ from each other. The light of the first wavelength band is visible light for example. Comparison between information code images imaged respectively on the light of the first and second wavelength bands makes it possible to determine whether the information code or an object with the information code is authentic.

Abstract: This invention encompasses embodiments for multi-modal integrated simultaneous measurement of various aspects of fluids contained in circulating systems such as automotive reciprocating engines and vehicle transmissions. These circulating systems perform constant internal lubrication, and heat and contaminant removal to protect the internal moving parts from the inherent friction and damage in normal operation. Most commonly this is achieved with fluids based on hydrocarbon and/or related synthetics, which, over time, can lose their protective properties, and vary in their performance or breakdown/decay due to internal and external events. Several components within the lubricant fluid can be measured and can provide insight into the efficacy of the system to perform its designed mission. Claimed herein is an integrated system (100) for continuous monitoring of multiple properties of a fluid derived from measurements from a plurality of sensor modalities (101-111) within a fluid-based closed-system environment, as well as a corresponding method.
