Abstract

In order to minimise load transfer between the shroud ring (26) and the turbine casing (13) the shroud ring (26) is radially supported by and radially spaced apart from the turbine casing (13) by an annular brush seal of upstanding filaments 33, 34 of, for example, a nickel based alloy. The groups of filaments may be oppositely inclined with respect to the shroud ring radii so as to prevent ring rotation. The ring 26 may be of silicon nitride and may be surrounded by a layer of ceramic block 37 to protect the filaments from heat damage. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION A Support Member and a Component Supported Thereby This invention relates to a structure comprising a support member and a component supported thereby.
It has long been a problem to support components which are subject to thermal expansion and contraction with support members which are also subject to such thermal expansion and contraction but at a different rate. If the two are rigidly connected, each will be subject to stresses which may eventually lead to their mechanical failure. This is particularly so in the case when either or both of the support member and component are made from a brittie material such as a ceramic.
This is a problem which can arise in gas turbine engines and in particular in the combustion and turbine regions of such engines.
Turbines suitable for gas turbine engines conventionally comprise a casing enclosing alternate stages of rotary and stationary aerofoil blades positioned in an annular gas passage. In order to ensure the efficient operation of such turbines, it is important that the clearances between the tips of the rotary aerofoil blades and the radially outer wall of the gas passage are as small as possible. If the clearances are too great, excessive gas leakage occurs across the blade tips, thereby reducing turbine efficiency. There is a danger however that if clearances are reduced so as to reduce leakage, it is likely that under certain turbine operating conditions, the tips of the rotary blades will make contact with the gas passage wall, thereby causing both blade and wall damage.
In an attempt to ensure that optimum blade tip clearances are achieved and maintained with minimal gas leakage across them, it has been suggested to surround a stage of rotary aerofoil blades with a shroud ring. The shroud ring is conventionally attached to the turbine casing in such a manner that it provides a radially inner surface which defines a portion of the radially outer wall of the turbine annular gas passage.
Since the shroud ring is an item which is comparatively simple to manufacture, it may be closely toleranced so as to ensure that rotary aerofoil blade tip clearances are as near to the optimum as is possible. However, shroud rings still present problems in ensuring that optimum tip clearances are maintained during turbine operation. These problems are associated mainly with the differing rates of thermal expansion of the turbine casing, the shroud ring and the rotary aerofoil blade assembly. Thus, for instance, although the turbine casing and shroud ring may be formed from materials having the same or similar rates of thermal expansion, the difference in their masses and the temperatures to which they are exposed during turbine operation ensures that they usually expand and contract at differing rates.Consequently there is a danger of the shroud ring and possibly the turbine casing being distorted. Similarly the shroud ring and rotary aerofoil blade stage are likely to radially expand and contract at differing rates, thereby causing variations in the tip clearances of the rotary aerofoil blades.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a structure comprising a support member and a component supported thereby in which loadings between them are minimised.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a turbine which includes a turbine casing, shroud ring and rotary aerofoil blade stage which is so adapted as to minimise variations in the clearances between the tips of the rotary aerofoil blades and the shroud ring during turbine operation.
According to the present invention, a structure comprises a support member and a component supported thereby, one of said support member and said component being provided with an array of upstanding filaments so arranged as to define a brush seal, said component being surrounded by said brush seal in such a manner that said component is both supported from and spaced apart from said member by said brush seal.
Said component may be of circular crosssection and said brush seal comprise an annular array of upstanding filaments, the arrangement being such that said brush seal constitutes the sole means of radial support for said component.
Said upstanding filaments are preferably mounted on an annular radially inwardly facing surface of said support member.
According to a further aspect of the present invention a turbine suitable for a gas turbine engine comprises a turbine casing enclosing means adapted to cooperate with said casing to define an annular gas passage, a stage of rotary aerofoil blades positioned within said annular gas passage and a shroud ring surrounding but not engaging said rotary aerofoil blades, said shroud ring comprising a ceramic material, adapted to constitute a portion of the radially outer wall of said annular gas passage and both radially supported from and radially spaced apart from said turbine casing by an annular array of upstanding filaments mounted on said turbine casing and so arranged as to define an annular brush seal.
Annular brush seals are known in the art and conventionally comprise an annular array of upstanding generally radially extending resilient filaments which are anchored at either of their radially inner or outer ends by a support member.
The free ends of the filaments engage the peripheral surface of a member so that a seal is provided between the peripheral surface of the member and the filament support.
The upstanding filaments may be anchored by clamping or alternatively by constituting part of a woven structure such as a velvet-like fabric.
Since the shroud ring is radially supported from and radially spaced apart from the turbine casing by a brush seal comprising a plurality of resilient filaments, it is free to move relative to the casing over a restricted range without the seal between the casing and shroud ring being broken. In particular the shroud ring and casing may expand or contract at differing rates without the seal between them being broken and also without any significant load transfer taking place between them.
The lack of any significant load transfer between the shroud ring and casing under a large range of thermal conditions means that the shroud ring may comprise a ceramic material which, under normal circumstances would not tolerate direct attachment to the casing. Since ceramics generally have low rates of thermal expansion, the use of a shroud ring which comprises a ceramic material is highly advantageous in the maintenance of small blade tip clearances which vary little during turbine operation. Thus whilst the rotary aerofoil blade stage may expand and contract radially during turbine operation, the tip clearances between the rotary aerofoil blades and shroud ring vary over a smaller range than is the case when conventional metallic shroud rings are utilised.
The turbine casing is preferably axially divided radially outwardly of the rotary aerofoil blade stage so as to define a circumferentially extending housing adapted to accommodate said shroud ring comprising a ceramic material and is additionally adapted to define an annuler chamber radially outwardly of said shroud ring housing, said annular brush seal being located within said annular chamber between the radially outer wall of said chamber and the radially outer surface of said shroud ring.
The annular brush seal preferably comprises a support member carrying at least one annular array of upstanding filaments which are inclined to the radii of said shroud ring.
The shroud ring may comprise a metallic ringshaped support member which is adapted to carry the ceramic portion of the shroud ring and also engage the annular brush seal.
The shroud ring may be supported by an annular brush seal comprising two or more annular arrays of filaments which are coaxially mounted, axially spaced apart and carried by the same support member.
If two or more annular arrays of filaments are utilised, the filaments of each annular array are preferably inclined to the radii of said shroud ring in a direction which is opposite to that of the filaments of its adjacent array.
The support member carrying the or each annular array of filaments is preferably mounted on the radially outer wall of said annular chamber defined by said turbine casing so that the free ends of said fiiament engage and support said shroud ring.
Said annular brush seal filaments are preferably formed from a nickel base alloy.
Said shroud ring preferably comprises an annular silicon nitride portion.
Said shroud ring may additionally comprise a further ceramic material interposed between said silicon nitride portion and said ring shaped support member.
Said further ceramic material may be so adapted that insulating air gaps are defined between said further ceramic material and each of said silicon nitride portion and said ring-shaped support member.
The invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 is a sectioned side view of a portion of a gas turbine engine incorporating a turbine in accordance with the present invention.
Figure 2 is a view on section line A-A of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a sectioned side view of an alternative form of the present invention.
Figure 4 is a view on section line B-B of Figure 3.
With reference to Figure 1 a gas turbine engine portion generally indicated at 10 comprises a combustion chamber 11 and a turbine 12. The turbine 12 in turn comprises a casing 13 which defines the radially outer wall of an annular gas passage 14. The passage 14 contains, in flow series, stages of stationary nozzle guide vanes 1 5, rotary high pressure aerofoil blades 16, low pressure stator vanes 1 7 and rotary low pressure aerofoil blades 1 8. The stages of rotary aerofoil blades 1 6 and 1 8 are mounted for rotation on discs 19 and 20 respectively.The nozzle guide vanes 1 5 and rotary aerofoil blades 1 6 constitute the high pressure section of the turbine 10 and the stator vanes 17 and rotary aerofoil blades 18 the low pressure section. The plafforms 21,22, 23 and 24 of the nozzle guide vanes 15, rotary aerofoil blades 16, stator vanes 17 and rotary aerofoil blades 1 8 respectively define the radially inner wall of the gas passage 14.
The turbine casing 13 is axially divided radially outwardly of the rotary high pressure aerofoil blade array 1 6 to provide a circumferentially extending housing 25 for a silicon nitride shroud ring 26. The housing 25 is of sufficient axial length to permit the shroud ring 26 to float radially with respect to the axis of rotation of the turbine 10. The walls of the housing 25 extend radially outwardly to cooperate with a generally T-shaped cross-section ring 27 so that together they define an annular chamber 28. The radially outer wall 29 of the chamber 28 is provided with a recess 30 which accommodates a support ring 31 carrying two annular arrays of upstanding generally radially inwardly extending nickel base alloy filaments 33 and 34. The free ends of the filaments 33 and 34 engage and support the radially outer surface of the shroud ring 26 so that the shroud ring 26 is radially spaced apart from the turbine casing 13 but is located axially by the walls of the housing 25. Thus the filaments 33 and 34 and support ring 31 constitute a brush seal which provides the sole radial support for the shroud ring 26.
The filaments 33 whilst being generally radially extending, are inclined to the radii of the shroud ring 26 as can be seen in Figure 2. The filaments 34 are also inclined to the radii of the shroud ring 26 but in the opposite direction. Thus together the filaments 33 and 34 oppose any tendency for the shroud ring 26 to rotate in either a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
The filaments 33 and 34 serve a dual role.
They firstly support the shroud ring 26 from the turbine casing 13 in such a manner that any radial growth or contraction of the turbine casing 1 3 due to thermal expansion or contraction is not transmitted to the shroud ring 26. Thus any alterations in the radial distance between the turbine casing 13 and the shroud ring 26 arising from relative radial expansion or contraction results in the filaments 33 and 34 flexing in the manner of springs so as to accommodate those alterations. Consequently little load transfer occurs between the turbine casing 13 and the shroud ring 26, thereby permitting the shroud ring 26 to be formed from a brittle material such as silicon nitride. It will be appreciated, however, that the present invention is generally applicable to shroud rings comprising any convenient ceramic material.
Since ceramics in general and silicon nitride in particular have low coefficients of thermal expansion, they can be expected to dimensionally alter very little during turbine operation. It follows from this that during turbine operations, the clearance between the tips of the rotary aerofoil blades 1 6 and the shroud ring 26 effectively only vary by the amount that the blades 16 and their associated disc 1 9 thermally expand and contract in a radial direction. Thus tip clearances are unaffected by the amount that the turbine casing 1 3 may thermally expand or contract during turbine operation.
The second role served by the filaments 33 and 34 is in providing an axial gas seal across the shroud ring 26. Thus during the operation of the turbine 1 2 some of the hot exhaust gases directed by the stage of nozzle guide vanes 1 5 onto the stage of rotary aerofoil blades 1 6 escape through the housing 25 and into the annular chamber 28.
The filaments 33 and 34 prevent these gases from passing across the annular chamber 28 and re-entering the annular gas passage downstream of the rotary aerofoil blade stage 1 6.
Consequently the only gas leakage across the rotary aerofoil blade stage 1 6 is across the blade tips.
In certain instances, the temperatures which are encountered in a gas turbine engine turbine are so high that the silicon nitride heats up to such an extent that the filaments 33 and 34 may be in danger of heat damage. In such circumstances it is preferred to utilise a shroud ring which has improved heat insulation properties. Such a shroud ring 26a is shown in Figures 3 and 4.
The shroud ring 26a comprises a silicon nitride ring portion 36 which is similar to the previously described shroud ring 26. However the radially outer surface of the silicon nitride ring portion 36 is provided with an annular array of ceramic blocks 37. The annular array of ceramic blocks 37 is surrounded in turn by a metallic ring-shaped support member 38 which serves to retain the ceramic blocks 37 in position around the silicon nitride ring portion 36.
The ceramic blocks 37 are provided with cutout portions 39 and 40 on their radially inner and outer surfaces respectively. These cut-out portions 39 and 40 cooperates with the silicon carbide ring portion 36 and the ring shaped support member 38 respectively to define insulating air gaps 41 and 42. Thus the air gaps 41 and 42 together with the ceramic blocks 37 ensure that the filaments 33 and 34 do not overheat.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the high pressure stage of a turbine, it will be appreciated that the invention is in fact applicable to any turbine stage.
It will also be appreciated that whilst the present invention has been described with reference to the mounting of a shroud ring within the turbine of a gas turbine engine, it does have broader applications. Thus in its broadest aspect, the present invention relates generally to the mounting of circular cross-section components by means of an array of upstanding filaments which are so arranged as to define a brush seal.
Moreover the array of upstanding filaments could be mounted in a support member or alternatively on the component itself so that the free ends of the upstanding filaments engage the support member.
