Patent References 2479046 2655308 2659530 3339933 Turbine engine compressor Method and structure for preventing the ignition of titanium fires Gas turbine engine cooling apparatus Gas turbine engine and a rotor for a gas turbine engine Patent #: 6575699 InventorAssigneeApplicationNo. 11188092 filed on 07/25/2005US Classes:415/200Specific casing or vane materialExaminersPrimary: Verdier, ChristopherAttorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassF01D 5/08AbstractA rotor (38) for a gas turbine engine (10) has a low emissivity surface finish, or high emissivity surface finish (44), on at least a portion of its surface (42) to reduce temperature differentials between an upper portion and a lower portion of the rotor (38). This reduces bowing of the rotor (38) to allow the gas turbine engine (10) to be started without harmful vibrations of the rotor (38).Field of SearchSpecific casing or vane materialWith runner shaft of specific shape or material Means subjected to or is working fluid INCLUDING HEAT INSULATION OR EXCHANGE MEANS (E.G., FINS, LAGGING, ETC.)
