Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013141937A1] A gas turbine engine is disclosed having a thermoelectric device capable of changing a tip clearance in a turbomachinery component. In one non-limiting form the turbomachinery component is a compressor. The thermoelectric device can be used in some forms to harvest power derived from a waste heat. The tip clearance control system can include a sensor used to determine a clearance between a tip and a wall of the turbomachinery component.
