Abstract
A nozzle arrangement for a gas turbine engine comprising a first housing member and a second housing member. The nozzle arrangement may further include a first nozzle and a second nozzle. Each of the first nozzle and second nozzle may extend between the first housing member and the second housing member so as to form a doublet. A plurality of cooling apertures may be arranged on at least one of the first nozzle, the second nozzle, the first housing member, or the second housing member so as to provide a different degree of first order cooling across the doublet.

A nozzle arrangement for a gas turbine engine, comprising:
- a first housing member and a second housing member;
- a first nozzle and a second nozzle, each of the first nozzle and second nozzle extending between the first housing member and the second housing member so as to form a doublet;
- wherein a plurality of cooling apertures are arranged on at least one of the first nozzle, the second nozzle, the first housing member, or the second housing member so as to provide a different degree of first order cooling across the doublet.
A nozzle arrangement for a gas turbine engine, comprising:
- a first housing member and a second housing member;
- a first nozzle and a second nozzle, each of the first nozzle and second nozzle extending between the first housing member and the second housing member so as to form a doublet;
- wherein a plurality of cooling apertures are arranged on at least one of the first nozzle, the second nozzle, the first housing member or the second housing member, the arrangement of apertures being asymmetric with respect to the first and second nozzles.
A nozzle arrangement for a gas turbine engine, comprising:
- a first housing member and a second housing member;
- a first nozzle and a second nozzle, each of the first nozzle and second nozzle extending between the first housing member and the second housing member so as to form a doublet, wherein each of the first nozzle and second nozzle include a concave surface and an oppositely arranged convex surface;
- and
- a plurality of cooling apertures are arranged on at least one of the first nozzle, the second nozzle, the first housing member or the second housing member;
- wherein the plurality of apertures includes a larger number of apertures on at least one of the first housing member or the second housing member between the concave surface of the second nozzle and the convex surface of the first nozzle than between a concave surface of the first nozzle and an adjacent end of the doublet.
