Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for a turbomachine, in particular a steam turbine, for sealing a Gap between a mobile and a stationary one Component, one of which is on a flanking the gap Surface bears an abrasion layer.
  • sealing tapes arranged axially one behind the other - including labyrinth seals called - used. These seals are characterized by sealing tapes arranged transversely to the flow, a gap that is usually several millimeters wide close almost completely. It is accepted that the sealing tapes sometimes during transient processes brush against the component opposite them and thereby wear yourself slightly.
  • labyrinth seals are used both in blading and in turbine construction Piston and shaft seals used.
  • a similarly acting special form of these seals is a honeycomb seal. This has on one side of the Gaps, mostly on the side fixed to the housing, one one Recreated honeycomb structure on the open surface a leakage flow through a multitude of small vortices in is hampered by the honeycomb structure. On flow resistance generated thereby prevents a free flow Flow in the through the honeycomb structure on a Side limited channel.
  • the US-PS 4,177,004 is already a turbine known in which there is a gap between a turbine blade and one encompassing these in the circumferential direction, in one Sealing the suspended ring of the housing. This arrangement is designed so that the turbine blade itself occasionally the ring that surrounds her. To be threatened The ring with one material is to avoid damage occupied, which causes no wear on the turbine blade.
  • the invention is based on the object, the amount of unused equipment flowing past the turbine blade - For example water vapor - without special apperatives Effort and without affecting operational security further decrease.
  • This object is for an arrangement of the solved type in that a component to be sealed in the area of the Crevice bears an abrasion layer, which as of her opposite component at least partially removable, porous covering is executed.
  • a porous abrasive layer in connection with its opposite Sealing tapes are the favorable properties a labyrinth seal and a honeycomb seal together connected. Because of the risk of intrusion the sealing tape in the facing surface is the Effectiveness of the sealing arrangement surprisingly significant increased. This makes using surprisingly simple and a significant improvement in economic resources Sealing performance achieved. Another benefit is the increased thermal shock resistance due to the porosity, which with increasing proportion of voids also with growing Flexibility of the covering goes hand in hand.
  • the surface opposite the covering is at least one parallel arranged to the direction of movement of the movable component, the gap closing, protruding like a cutting edge Sealing lip from a sealing tape, which when the Component slightly penetrates the covering and this partially ablates and that the thickness of the covering is equal to that 0.5 to 0.1 times the width of the gap flanked by it is.
  • the covering contains a mixture of a mineral and a metallic and / or evaporable or gasifiable component.
  • composition of the covering contains this granular material parts according to their at least partial Removal from the topping at its free Surface has depressions.
  • the covering preferably on that flanking the gap arranged at rest.
  • the sealing tape at their free ends preferably up to 0.2 to 0.5 mm, tapered.
  • the component 1 on the other side of the gap 3 opposite component 2 is preferred in the operating state dormant and bears one designed as a rubbing layer 7 Covering.
  • the covering has a thickness corresponding to that 0.5 to 0.1 times the width of the gap 3 and consists of a porous or foamy material, for example made of a foamed metal or a mixture of one mineral and a metallic component and / or contains a gasifiable or vaporizable component.
  • a leg 8 facing the covering of the L-shaped in cross section Sealing tape 5 grazes the covering and is on his slightly tapered end immersed in the coating. Thereby is the energy requirement during a brushing or one Penetration of the sealing tape 5 in the covering on a very limited small value.
  • the thickness of the sealing tape 5 is around 0.2 mm in its tapered area and lies about the size of the width of a channel 9, the between the sealing tape 5 and that shown by the covering Abstreif Anlagen 7 is formed and through which a leakage current 10 flows out of steam.
  • the flow resistance for the leakage flow 10 in the channel 9 is not simply by its length and its Cross section determined, but is due to the bumps in the surface of the surface significantly increased. This is thereby achieved that even within the short channel 9 and despite its comparatively narrow cross-section, a large number of small and very small vortices within the leakage flow are enforced in this area. Above all, this is one Consequence of the execution of the invention as a rubbing layer 7 applied covering.
  • FIGS. 2 and 4 have both in Component 1 and in component 2 sealing tapes 5, of which one each in the gap 3 between the two neighboring ones Components 1, 2 in the direction of the opposite Component 1 or 2 extends.
  • Fig. 2 since in the solution accordingly Fig. 2 only the component 2 with an abradable layer 7 is provided, the effect according to the invention is only for the sealing tapes 5 in the opposite component 1 reached.
  • the solution according to FIG. 4 works with each of the sealing tapes on both sides of the gap 3 a porous coating as a rubbing layer 7 together.
  • Fig. 5 shows a seal between a turbine shaft as moved component 1 and a shroud 11, the shroud 11 ends of guide vanes 12 supports. This is the gap 3 facing side of the shroud 11 executed and carries a on their axially parallel sub-areas Covering as a rubbing layer 7. Each step of the cover tape 11 stands at least one sealing tape 5.
  • the shroud 11 is composed of segments that together in the circumferential direction give the turbine shaft a complete ring.
  • FIG. 6 is an illustration of a seal between one Housing part as a resting component 2 and a shroud 13, the supports the ends of blades 14 against each other.
  • the one Component 2 facing side of the shroud 13 is stepped executed and each of the axially parallel step surfaces provided with a covering as a rubbing layer 7.
  • Sealing tape 5 is opposite.
  • the cover band 13 is also made of segments composed of each other to form a complete Complement the ring.
  • coverings designed according to the invention as a rubbing layer 7 is particularly suitable for use with Steam turbines, but is the same in all other flow machines can be used advantageously.
