The inventive turbomachine comprises a rotor rotationally mounted in the case of the turbomachine, a feeding channel embodied in the rotor for introducing a fluid and an outlet channel embodied in the rotor for removing said fluid. An inlet orifice of the feeding channel is disposed further inside than the outlet orifice of the outlet channel, and means influencing a liquid flow is formed of an actuating device dependent on centrifugal force. Methods for cooling the rotor only by decelerating the gas turbine and for heating the turbomachine rotor by heating fluid flowing therethrough are also disclosed. | 10-08-2009 |
20090304503 | STATOR BLADE SEGMENT OF A THERMAL TURBOMACHINE, ASSOCIATED PRODUCTION METHOD AND ALSO THERMAL TURBOMACHINE - The invention relates to a guide blade segment of a thermal turbomachine, in particular a gas turbine, comprising a number of profiled blades which are arranged on a platform. A plurality of securing elements for securing the guide blade segment to an associated guide blade support are arranged on the side of the platform which is oriented away from the blade. The aim of the invention is to provide a guide blade segment which can be produced in a simple and economical manner avoiding casting problem areas enabling the guide blade segment to be attached in a particularly reliable and secure manner to the associated guide blade support. According to the invention, at least one section of at least one of the securing elements is a separately produced component which is rigidly connected to the platform or to an additional section of the securing element. | 12-10-2009 |
20100014980 | Turbine blade - There is described a turbine blade with an aerodynamically profiled blade leaf which is produced from two assembled shell elements. The shell elements forming the suction-side and the pressure-side blade leaf wall have been assembled by means of a high-temperature high-pressure bonding process and, under certain circumstances, may come apart at the blade tip. In order to prevent this, in the region of the blade leaf tip, a cramp is provided which hooks the two blade walls together with one another with a form fit. | 01-21-2010 |
20100146985 | High Temperature-Resistant Sealing Assembly, Especially for Gas Turbines - The invention relates to a high temperature-resistant sealing assembly comprising a sealing segment and a component border which is connected to the sealing segment. A flexible sealing element is provided in order to joining the sealing segment and the component border. The invention is characterized in that the flexible sealing element compensates both thermal expansions and relative movements of the component border and the components resting against the sealing segment. The flexible sealing element and the sealing segment are subject to little wear and have a long service life. The invention further relates to a combustion chamber that is equipped with a high temperature-resistant sealing assembly as well as a gas turbine encompassing such a combustion chamber. | 06-17-2010 |
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.

20120107136 | SEALING PLATE AND ROTOR BLADE SYSTEM - A rotor blade system, for example, of a gas turbine is provided. The rotor blade system includes a plurality of rotor blades which are arranged annularly on a rotor disk. A plurality of sealing plates are arranged on a side surface of the rotor disk. An individual sealing plate is formed from a plurality of metal sheets, wherein two of the metal sheets are arranged opposite each other a distance apart and parallel to a plane of the sealing plate, forming a gap for guiding of cooling air. | 05-03-2012 |
20130115044 | EXHAUST GAS DIFFUSER FOR A GAS TURBINE AND A METHOD FOR OPERATING A GAS TURBINE THAT COMPRISES SUCH AN EXHAUST GAS DIFFUSER - An exhaust gas diffuser for a gas turbine is provided. The diffuser has an annular outer wall for guiding the diffuser flow and in which an annular guiding element is arranged concentrically to the outer wall and influences the diffuser flow. The guiding element has a surface which is radially directed inwards and has a circumferential contour that is convex in the longitudinal section to form a displacement element. The guiding element is axially displaceable between two positions so that the guiding element, when in a first position, allows a flow between the guiding element and outer wall and, when in a second position, largely prohibits a flow between the guiding element and outer wall. The aerodynamic effect of the diffuser is improved and simultaneously optimal adapted for a plurality of operational gas turbine states. | 05-09-2013 |
