Abstract:
This patent discloses an improved diffuser for a gas turbine engine which is mounted between a compressor section and a burner section. The diffuser eliminates struts by using the exit guide vanes of the compressor for support. The vanes are fixedly mounted to an inner case wall and to a double outer wall. A cantilevered case wall being one of the double outer walls can flex both radially and axially to relieve thermal stress in the vanes. Additionally, probes can be mounted in access ports formed in the double outer wall. Compressor leakage gas is prevented from entering voids in the double outer wall by a seal seated between the cantilevered case wall and the other case wall.
