Abstract

Each shroud-band segment comprises circumferential sealing ribs 5, 6, 7 in a conventional manner and also has at least one cooling-air distribution duct 8 a , 8 b , 8 c extending substantially in the peripheral direction. Cooling-air bores 8f, lead from the distribution duct 8 c on the trailing-edge side to the trailing edge of the shroud- band segment, and also a number of branch ducts 10 lead from the distribution duct to the leading flank of the trailing sealing rib 7. This reduces the leakage flow through the gaps between the sealing ribs and the adjacent wall of the casing or duct.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Turbinenschaufel-Anordnung mit einem gekühlten Deckband, das zumindest eine umlau­ fende Dichtrippe sowie in jedem einer Turbinenschaufel zugeordneten Deckband-Segment einen im wesentlichen im Umfangsrichtung verlaufenden Kühlluft-Verteilkanal auf­ weist, von dem mehrere Kühlluftbohrungen zur Abströmkante des Deckbandsegmentes führen.The invention relates to a turbine blade arrangement with a chilled shroud that is at least one umlau fender sealing rib as well as in each of a turbine blade assigned shroud segment an essentially in Cooling air distribution channel extending circumferentially points from which several cooling air holes to the trailing edge of the shroud segment.

Zum Stand der Technik wird beispielshalber auf die WO 94/11616 oder die US 4,940,388 verwiesen. Dabei zeigt die letztgenannte Schrift ein Deckband-Segment mit einem sog. Zaun, der winkelig zur Turbinen-Längsachse verläuft. Bei üblicher Gestaltung ist die Dichtwirkung eines derartigen Zaunes zur Reduzierung der Leckageströmung zwischen Deckband und angrenzender Kanalwand zwar günstiger als die einfachen in Umfangs­ richtung umlaufenden Dichtrippen, jedoch bedingt dieser Zaun einen unverhältnismäßig hohen Fertigungsaufwand.The state of the art for example to WO 94/11616 or US 4,940,388 referred. The latter font shows Cover band segment with a so-called fence, which is angled to Turbine longitudinal axis runs. With usual design the sealing effect of such a fence for reduction the leakage flow between the shroud and the adjacent one Channel wall is cheaper than the simple ones in scope direction of the circumferential sealing ribs, but this requires Fence a disproportionately high manufacturing effort.

Maßnahmen aufzuzeigen, mit Hilfe derer auch ohne Zaun bei Vorsehen einer üblichen Dichtrippe, ggf. mit einer Radialdichtung, eine ausreichende Reduzierung der Lecka­ geströmung erreicht werden kann, ist Aufgabe der vorlie­ genden Erfindung.Show measures with the help of those without a fence Provide a usual sealing rib, possibly with a Radial seal, adequate leakage reduction flow can be achieved is the task of the present invention.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe sind mehrere von der anström­ seitigen Flanke der Dichtrippe zum Kühlluft-Verteilkanal führende Stichkanäle vorgesehen.To solve this problem, several are from the inflow flank of the sealing rib to the cooling air distribution duct leading branch channels are provided.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbil­ dungen sind Inhalt der Unteransprüche und gehen auch aus der folgenden Erläuterung eines bevorzugten Ausführungs­ beispieles hervor. Dabei zeigt Fig. 1 einen Schnitt durch ein Deckband-Segment, während in Fig. 2 die Aufsicht auf dieses Deckband-Segment dargestellt ist.Advantageous further developments are the content of the subclaims and are also apparent from the following explanation of a preferred embodiment. Here, FIG. 1 shows a section through a shroud band segment, while in FIG. 2, the plan view is displayed on this shroud segment.

Mit der Bezugsziffer 1 ist ein Deckband-Segment einer nur bruchstückhaft dargestellten Turbinenschaufel 2 bezeich­ net. Dieses Deckband-Segment 1 bildet zusammen mit den Segmenten der benachbarten Turbinenschaufeln wie bekannt ein umlaufendes Deckband. Dabei gilt es, den Spalt zwi­ schen dem Deckband sowie der in Fig. 1 lediglich schema­ tisch dargestellten Kanalwand 3 möglichst optimal abzu­ dichten, d. h. eine durch den Spalt 3 hindurchströmende, mit Pfeilen 4 dargestellte Leckageströmung möglichst ge­ ring zu halten. Wie üblich ist jedes Deckband-Segment 1 daher mit in Umfangsrichtung orientierten Dichtrippen 5, 6, 7 versehen, derart, daß mit den Dichtrippen der benachbarten Deckband-Segmente ebenfalls umlaufende Dichtrippen 5, 6, 7 gebildet werden. Jede einzelne der Dichtrippen 5, 6, 7 stellt dabei ein Strömungshindernis für die Leckageströmung 4 dar.With the reference numeral 1 , a shroud segment of a turbine blade 2, which is only shown in fragments, is designated net. As is known, this shroud segment 1 forms, together with the segments of the adjacent turbine blades, a circumferential shroud. It is important to seal the gap between the shroud and the duct wall 3 shown schematically in FIG. 1 as optimally as possible, ie to keep a leakage flow flowing through the gap 3 , represented by arrows 4 , as possible. As usual, each shroud segment 1 is therefore provided with sealing ribs 5 , 6 , 7 oriented in the circumferential direction, such that circumferential sealing ribs 5 , 6 , 7 are also formed with the sealing ribs of the adjacent shroud segments. Each of the sealing ribs 5 , 6 , 7 represents a flow obstacle for the leakage flow 4 .

Wie ersichtlich besitzt die beschriebene Turbinenschau­ fel-Anordnung ein gekühltes Deckband 1, d. h. in jedem Deckband-Segment 1 ist ein System 8 von kühlluftführenden Kanälen vorgesehen, die mit Kühlluftkanälen 9 innerhalb der Turbinenschaufel 2 in Verbindung stehen. Im einzelnen weist das gezeigte Deckband-Segment drei im wesentlichen in Umfangsrichtung verlaufende Kühlluft-Verteilkanäle 8a, 8b, 8c auf, die an ihren Enden beispielsweise durch Schweißen verschlossen sind. Vom Kühlluft-Verteilkanal 8a zweigen eine Vielzahl von Kühlluftbohrungen 8d ab, die zur Oberfläche des Deckband-Segmentes 1 führen. In ver­ gleichbarer Weise sind die beiden Kühlluft-Verteilkanäle 8b, 8c über eine Vielzahl von Kühlluftbohrungen 8e mit­ einander verbunden. Schließlich führen weitere Kühlluft­ bohrungen 8f vom Kühlluft-Verteilkanal 8c zur Abström­ kante 1a des Deckband-Segmentes und münden an dieser Ab­ strömkante 1a in einer wirbeldüsenartigen Ausbildung.As can be seen, the described turbine blade arrangement has a cooled shroud 1 , that is, in each shroud segment 1 , a system 8 of cooling air-carrying channels is provided, which are connected to cooling air channels 9 within the turbine blade 2 . In detail, the shroud segment shown has three cooling air distribution channels 8 a, 8 b, 8 c which run essentially in the circumferential direction and which are closed at their ends, for example by welding. A plurality of cooling air bores 8 d branch off from the cooling air distribution duct 8 a and lead to the surface of the shroud segment 1 . In a comparable manner, the two cooling air distribution channels 8 b, 8 c are connected to one another via a plurality of cooling air bores 8 e. Finally, further cooling air bores 8 f from the cooling air distribution channel 8 c to the trailing edge 1 a of the shroud segment and open at this trailing edge 1 a in a vortex-like configuration.

Wie ersichtlich liegt der Kühlluft-Verteilkanal 8c im Be­ reich der abströmseitigen Dichtrippe 7 des Deckband-Seg­ mentes 1. Ausgehend von der anströmseitigen Flanke 7a dieser Dichtrippe 7 führen mehrere Stichkanäle 10 zum Kühlluft-Verteilkanal 8c. Über diese Stichkanäle 10 ge­ langt aufgrund der herrschenden Druckverhältnisse im Spalt zwischen dem Deckband-Segment 1 sowie der Kanalwand 3 einerseits und im System 8 der die Kühlluft führenden Kanäle andererseits ein Teil derjenigen Leckageströmung 4, die zuvor die Dichtrippe 6 passiert hatte, in den Kühlluft-Verteilkanal 8c und vermengt sich hierin mit der dort vorhandenen Kühlluft-Strömung. Dabei stellt diese Kühlluftströmung ein zusätzliches Strömungshindernis für die Leckage-Strömung 4 dar. Insbesondere gilt dies auch, wenn abhängig von den jeweiligen Druckverhältnissen ein Teil des im Kühlluft-Verteilkanales 8c vorhandenen Kühl­ luftstromes über die Stichkanäle 10 in den Bereich zwi­ schen die beiden Dichtrippen 6, 7 gelangt.As can be seen, the cooling air distribution channel 8 c in the area of the downstream sealing rib 7 of the shroud segment 1 . Starting from the upstream flank 7 a of this sealing rib 7 , several branch channels 10 lead to the cooling air distribution channel 8 c. About these branch channels 10 ge reaches due to the prevailing pressure conditions in the gap between the shroud segment 1 and the channel wall 3 on the one hand and in the system 8 of the channels leading the cooling air, on the other hand, part of that leakage flow 4 , which had previously passed the sealing rib 6 , into the cooling air -Distribution channel 8 c and mixes here with the cooling air flow there. This cooling air flow represents an additional flow obstacle for the leakage flow 4. In particular, this also applies if, depending on the respective pressure conditions, part of the cooling air flow present in the cooling air distribution channel 8 c via the branch channels 10 in the area between the two sealing ribs 6 , 7 arrives.

Stets bewirkt die Kühlluft-Strömung im Kühlluft-Verteil­ kanal 8c eine Reduzierung der Leckage-Strömung 4 im Be­ reich der Dichtrippe 7. Dabei wurden beste Ergebnisse er­ zielt, wenn jedem im Kühlluft-Verteilkanal 8c mündenden Stichkanal 10 eine Kühlluftbohrung 8f von im wesentlichen gleichem Durchmesser - dieser betrug für die Kühlluftboh­ rungen 8f sowie die Stichkanäle 10 jeweils 1,6 mm - im wesentlichen gegenüberliegend abzweigend zugeordnet ist. Jedoch kann dies sowie weitere Details durchaus abwei­ chend vom gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel gestaltet sein.The cooling air flow in the cooling air distribution channel 8 c always causes a reduction in the leakage flow 4 in the area of the sealing rib 7 . In this case, the best results were he aims if any in the cooling air distribution duct 8 c opens branch channel 10 is a cooling air hole 8 f of substantially equal diameter - this was for the Kühlluftboh stanchions 8 f as well as the branch channels 10 are each 1.6 mm - substantially opposite branching assigned. However, this and other details can be designed deviating from the embodiment shown.
