VENTED TANGENTIAL ON-BOARD INJECTOR FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE

Abstract:

An on-board injector that delivers discharge air toward a turbine rotor of a gas turbine engine includes a second wall spaced form a first wall to define an annular inlet about an engine longitudinal axis and a multiple of airfoil shapes between the first wall and the second wall to segregate discharge air from the annular inlet, and a multiple of bypass apertures each along a radial axis transverse to the engine longitudinal axis through each of the multiple of airfoil shapes and the respective first wall, the second wall.
