Thermal control of gas turbine casings for improved tip clearance

<p>A thermal tip clearance control system provides a robust and flexible means of manipulating the closure between the casing and the rotating blade tips in a jet engine, reducing undesirable tip leakage flows. This may be achieved using an impingement cooling scheme on the external casing of...
