| 20100092293 | ROTOR FOR A GAS TURBINE - A rotor of a thermal fluid flow machine, especially a gas turbine, is provided. The rotor includes a plurality of rotor components that are held together by a common tie-bolt that extends through the center of the rotor components. The tie-bolt is fixed in at least one of the rotor components using at least one star spring that surrounds the tie-bolt in a circumferential direction. | 04-15-2010 |
| 20100143149 | TURBINE WITH AT LEAST ONE ROTOR WHICH COMPRISES ROTOR DISKS AND A TIE-BOLT - A gas turbine is provided. The gas turbine includes at least one rotor, having rotor blades arranged on the periphery of rotor disks in a plurality of radial planes, and a tie-bolt extending along slots in the rotor disks and holding the rotor disks together as a unit. At least one annular spacer for fixing the position of the tie-bolt in relation to the center line of the rotor disks is also provided. The spacer includes through-openings that are arranged radially in relation to the tie-bolt or to its center line and that extend coaxially. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100166559 | ROTOR OF A GAS TURBINE - A rotor of a thermal turbomachine, particularly a gas turbine, is provided. The rotor includes a plurality of individual rotor components that are held together by a tie-bold and combined into a unit. The tie-bolt is supported by the assembly of the surrounding rotor components including the tie-bolt and the rotor disks. A hollow shaft which is made up of two tubular sections and a support wheel further support the rotor. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20110171031 | Turbomachine Rotor Comprising a Pretensioning Device for Pretensioning a Guide Vane - A turbomachine rotor, a rotor blade and a method for assembling a turbomachine rotor are provided. The turbomachine rotor includes a rotor blade with a blade root, a wheel disk with a groove in which the blade root engages such that the rotor blade is maintained in the groove in a positive fit in a radial direction. Further, a pretensioning device is provided, which is supported on the wheel disk as well as on the blade root and which exerts a pretensioning force on the blade root in the radial direction. The pretensioning device is designed such that the pretensioning force can be adjusted when assembling the turbomachine rotor. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110214431 | TURBINE GUIDE VANE SUPPORT FOR A GAS TURBINE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A GAS TURBINE - A turbine guide vane support for an axial-flow gas turbine is provided. The support includes a tubular wall having an inflow-side end and an outflow-side end for a hot gas flowing in the interior of the turbine guide vane support in a flow path of the gas turbine. Cooling channels for a coolant are provided in the wall. The cooling channels extend from a coolant inlet to a coolant outlet, respectively. At least one of the cooling inlets and one of the cooling outlets, respectively, is disposed at the outflow-side end of the turbine guide vane support, wherein the cooling channel associated with the respective inlet and outlet extends up to the inflow-side end of the turbine guide vane support and transitions to a redirecting area from which the respective cooling channel further extends to the outflow-side end. | 09-08-2011 |
| 20110236184 | Axial Compressor for a Gas Turbine Having Passive Radial Gap Control - An axial compressor for a gas turbine having passive radial gap control is provided. The axial compressor includes a guide vane support on which guide vanes are fastened so as to be arranged in a ring, wherein the vane tips of the guide vanes lie opposite a wall section. Thermal insulation is attached to the wall section in the section lying opposite the vane tips in order to equalize the expansion behavior of the guide vane support and the wall section, which by themselves react thermally in different manners, wherein the terminal insulation is matched in the heat input delay effect thereof to the wall section and to the guide vane support in such a way that the thermal expansion behavior of the guide vane support and the wall section is at least equalized over time during transient operation of the axial compressor. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20110280721 | Gas turbine - A gas turbine including a plurality of hook elements disposed one inside the other and designed substantially in the form of hollow cones or hollow cylinders, and including a stator blade support, is intended to enable an especially high efficiency while maintaining the greatest possible operating safety and operating life. To this end, at least one of the hook elements or the stator blade support has a substantially elliptical cross-sectional contour. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20110286851 | Guide blade arrangement for an axial turbo-machine - A guide blade arrangement for an axial turbo-machine is provided. The guide blade arrangement includes at least one annular guide blade carrier and an inner ring arranged concentrically with respect to the guide blade carrier, between which guide blade carrier and inner ring a number of guide blades are arranged in a radial configuration. To obtain a low-wear and particularly durable fastening of the guide blade, which is supported by the guide blade carrier, to the inner ring, it is proposed that the guide blades are fastened resiliently to the inner ring. Here, the fastening is provided by means of a spring element. By means of the spring element, it is possible to ensure a uniform contact pressure of the guide blade head against the inner ring or if appropriate against a further spring element, such that occurring stresses and wear can be reduced. | 11-24-2011 |
