NOZZLE SEGMENT FOR USE WITH MULTIPLE DIFFERENT TURBINE ENGINES

A nozzle segment (100) includes an inner band (104), an outer band (106), and at least one nozzle vane (102) extending between the inner and outer bands (104, 106). The outer band (106) includes a hook (126) that extends radially outwardly from an outer surface (122). The hook (126) is oriented to c...

More Information
Summary:A nozzle segment (100) includes an inner band (104), an outer band (106), and at least one nozzle vane (102) extending between the inner and outer bands (104, 106). The outer band (106) includes a hook (126) that extends radially outwardly from an outer surface (122). The hook (126) is oriented to couple to a support (17) within different first and second turbine engines (10). The hook (126) extends circumferentially across the outer surface (122) and includes slots (130) defined therein. A first slot (130) includes a first circumferential load surface (132), and a second slot (130) includes a second circumferential load surface (132). When the nozzle segment (100) is coupled within the first turbine engine (10), the first circumferential load surface (132) engages an anti-rotation element (48) while the second circumferential load surface (132) does not engage an anti-rotation element (48). When the nozzle segment (100) is coupled within the second turbine engine (10), the second circumferential load surface (132) engages an anti-rotation element (48) while the first circumferential load surface (132) does not engage an anti-rotation element (48).
