Definitions

  • the invention relates to a gas turbine with a guide and with a blade ring in a gas channel and with a Housing and axially secured against rotation against each other sliding funnel-shaped guide parts as a carrier of rings forming an outer jacket of the gas channel.
  • Gas turbines are often not only in their starting phase, but also subject to changing loads even in continuous operation. This has especially with regard to that of individual components assume a transient temperature Operation as a result. To avoid damage to the turbine the individual components are therefore usually clamped in such a way that they are unhindered thermally induced dimensional changes can execute.
  • Turbine losses due to cross currents over their blade tips to minimize as much as possible are the smallest possible radial gap between the blade tips and these opposite guide surfaces. Because both the blades and their rotor as well as guide blades and their carriers as well as an all-connecting housing expand differently in time with each load change and / or shrink, there is an optimal radial Gap over the blade tips only for very few of any number of stationary operating states. The These gas turbines are therefore often operated with a not optimized gap width and therefore with a not optimized efficiency.
  • the invention is based on the object of a gas turbine system to develop further in such a way that with her over Variety of operating conditions an optimal blade tip gap is given, so that a basic requirement for Achieving good efficiency is guaranteed.
  • This task is the one specified for a gas turbine kind solved according to the invention, in which at least one of the funnel-shaped guide parts controlled axially by a motor is movable. Appropriately serve as a motor Variety of hydraulic on the circumference of the guide part Press. However, every other type of drive is Content of this invention.
  • the particular advantage of this arrangement lies in the possibility of the blade tip gap actively set by moving the guide part axially. at the limitation of the active adjustability to axial movements is advantageous due to the funnel-shaped shape given the conicity of the guide part, because due to this taper, any axial displacement will result the same also a change in the substantially radial looking at blade tip gap.
  • An embodiment of the invention is based on a drawing explained in more detail. The only figure of this drawing shows a longitudinal section through a turbine between a propellant and exit.
  • Blade rings 2 with a plurality of blades 3 wedged.
  • One by vane rings 4 with a variety gas flow 6 guided by guide vanes 5 expands through a Gas channel 7 and drives the blades 3.
  • the gas channel 7 has an annular cross section and is at its pressure side end with a hot gas chamber 8 connected from which compressed and heated gas Arrow direction is driven to a gas outlet opening 9.
  • a radially inner boundary of the gas channel 7 is from Hubs 10 of the rotor blades wedged on the turbine shaft 1 2 and carried by the inner ends of the guide vanes 5, non-rotating hubs 11 of the guide vane rings 4 educated. Joints between the hubs 10 and the hubs 11 are sealed by labyrinth seals.
  • a radially outer boundary of the gas channel 7 has one funnel-shaped, conical shape and is defined by rings 12 and 13 educated.
  • the rings 12 and 13 are funnel-shaped Guide parts 14 and 15 worn, the rings 12 the free
  • the ends of the blades 3 lie opposite one another and the rings 13 hold the outer ends of the guide vanes 5 and thus the wear 4 of these vane ring formed. Gaps between the rings 12 and 13 are separated by suitable Sealed sealing rings not shown.
  • the guide parts 14 and 15 are thick-walled, very rigid and on in cross section preferably rectangular blocks 16 axially slidably mounted.
  • the blocks 16 are in a housing 17th anchored and each of the guide parts 14 and 15 engages his both ends in a wreath from a variety of blocks 16, so that tilting for the guide parts 14 and 15 as well is excluded, like radial movements.
  • the housing 17 is as stiff as the guide parts 14 and 15 and carries on the inside, apart from the blocks 16 per guide part 14 or 15 a rigid rib 18.
  • This rigid rib 18 is in each case provided axially between the rings of blocks 16, which are assigned to the same guide part 14 or 15.
  • the rigid one Rib 18 is particularly practical in the axial direction not deformable.
  • Each of the guide parts 14 and 15 carries one radially outward protruding, comparatively thin-walled stop rib 19, which on the hot gas chamber 8 side of the associated rigid rib 18 with one of its free end supported bead 20 supports.
  • a reinforcement 21 is arranged, which is also the rigid Rib 18 is facing, but shorter in the axial direction than the bead is 20.
  • the guide parts 14 and 15 are in the gas outlet opening 9 facing area radially outwards through a cross section preferably comprises trapezoidal stiffening rib 22, the one radially oriented, the associated rigid Rib 18 has opposite stop surface 23. Between the rigid ribs 18 and their opposite Stop surface 23 are even on the circumference of the associated guide part 14 or 15 distributes a large number arranged by hydraulic presses. Piston 24 of these presses are based directly on the rigid rib 18 and Associated cylinders 25 of the presses lie on the stop surface 23 of the stiffening rib 22. An annular space between the Housing 17 and the guide parts 14 and 15 is membrane-like Partitions 26 divided into chambers.
  • the arrangement according to the invention now enables a targeted, active adjustment of just the width of this gap. To this For this purpose, this width is measured by sensors, not shown. If you want to reduce the gap width then by the motor represented by the presses Guide part 14 and / or 15 in the direction of the gas outlet opening 9 moved.
  • the stop rib 19 resiliently clamped so that they are in the opposite direction required movement the guide member 14 or 15 carrying them pushes back towards the hot gas chamber 8.
  • This task is achieved by the same guiding part 14 or 15 associated presses together have an axial force something 10 times that of gas flow 6 due to operational reasons exerted on the relevant guide member 14 or 15 axial force equivalent. Both axial forces act in the direction the gas outlet opening 9 and add up.
  • Deformation energy is used when adjusting a guide part 14 or 15 in the direction of the gas outlet opening 9 saved and serves in an opposite movement to generate a restoring force.
  • This restoring force is in any position of the associated guide part 14 or 15 larger than that due to the operation of the gas stream 6 on this applied axial force.
  • the restoring force is preferably about 2 to 3 times as large as the operational axial force.
