Integral Suction Device With Acoustic Panel
US Patent:
7766280, Aug 3, 2010
Filed:
May 29, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/754518
Inventors:
Thomas G. Cloft - Glastonbury CT, US
Richard H. Wiley - East Hartford CT, US
Richard H. Wiley - East Hartford CT, US
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
B64C 21/06
US Classification:
244208, 244209
Abstract:
An inlet flow control system disposed within a nacelle includes a panel on an inner surface of that nacelle. The panel includes a noise attenuation layer that dissipates noise energy. A vacuum source generates a pressure differential across the noise attenuation layer for drawing airflow through the panel and away from an inner surface of the nacelle.
Tangential Anti-Swirl Air Supply
US Patent:
8082726, Dec 27, 2011
Filed:
Jun 26, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/768240
Inventors:
Thomas G. Cloft - Glastonbury CT, US
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
F02K 3/02
US Classification:
602261, 60785, 244 53 B, 137 151
Abstract:
A turbofan flow delivery system includes a fan case housing a fan. Flow exit guide vanes are arranged downstream from the fan and extend radially inwardly from the fan case toward a bypass flow path. A supply passage includes an opening provided in the fan case between the fan and flow exit guide vanes configured to selectively provide pressurized air to a component using air from the bypass flow path. Swirling air from the bypass flow path enters the supply passage and is converted to a static pressure.
Integrated Inlet Fan Case
US Patent:
8092169, Jan 10, 2012
Filed:
Sep 16, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/211127
Inventors:
Thomas G. Cloft - Glastonbury CT, US
Ron I. Prihar - West Hartford CT, US
Darin S. Lussier - Berlin CT, US
Ron I. Prihar - West Hartford CT, US
Darin S. Lussier - Berlin CT, US
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
F01D 1/00
US Classification:
415220, 4151821
Abstract:
A fan section of a gas turbine engine includes nacelle inlet and a fan containment case that are integrally formed together as a single-piece component.
Systems And Methods Involving Multiplexed Engine Control Signals
US Patent:
8140242, Mar 20, 2012
Filed:
May 22, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/125223
Inventors:
Thomas G. Cloft - Glastonbury CT, US
Assignee:
United Technologies Corp. - Hartford CT
International Classification:
G06F 19/00
US Classification:
701100, 701 99, 701104, 123492, 123493, 123494, 123520
Abstract:
Systems and methods involving multiplexed engine control signals are provided. In this regard, a representative engine control system for a gas turbine engine includes: a signal relay device operative to receive multiplexed signals from an engine electronic control (EEC), demultiplex the signals, and provide demultiplexed signals to corresponding ones of multiple control devices of the engine.
Generator With Separate Oil System For Improved Nacelle Performance
US Patent:
8312728, Nov 20, 2012
Filed:
Jun 28, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/823652
Inventors:
Thomas G. Cloft - Glastonbury CT, US
Robert L. Gukeisen - Middletown CT, US
Robert L. Gukeisen - Middletown CT, US
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
F02C 6/00
US Classification:
60802
Abstract:
An electrical generator assembly for use in a gas turbine engine, which assembly includes an electrical motor configured to connect to an accessory gearbox arranged radially outward of a main axis of the gas turbine engine and inside a nacelle, and fluid connections between the electrical motor and a generator oil system. The generator oil system is offset from the electrical motor such that the generator oil system is not located radially outward of the electrical motor and inside the nacelle.

Flow Distribution System For Inlet Flow Control
US Patent:
2008029, Dec 4, 2008
Filed:
May 29, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/754561
Inventors:
Thomas G. Cloft - Glastonbury CT, US
Sarah M. Wall - Vernon CT, US
Sarah M. Wall - Vernon CT, US
International Classification:
B64D 33/02
US Classification:
244 53 B, 60204, 60230
Abstract:
A nacelle structure for a gas turbine engine includes an inlet aft of an exit guide vane for supplying air flow to a forward plenum. Air is exhausted from the plenum into an air intake opening and over an inner surface of the nacelle for controlling air flow characteristics within the nacelle.
Nacelle Compartment Plenum For Bleed Air Flow Delivery System
US Patent:
2008029, Dec 4, 2008
Filed:
May 29, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/754455
Inventors:

Ashok K. Jain - Tempe AZ, US
Ashok K. Jain - Tempe AZ, US
International Classification:
F03B 15/06
US Classification:
415 41
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine is provided with a nacelle having a hollow inner space. The inner space is utilized as a plenum for directing air from an inlet to an outlet at the upstream end of the nacelle to allow control of an effective lip width of the nacelle under certain flight conditions.
