- the components shown are intended to belong to a stage of a low-pressure turbine of a gas turbine engine and correspond to a so-called cut-off design.
- This design aims at noise reduction at the turbine exit and is based on the principle that the number of upstream vanes 15 in the blade ring is significantly higher than the number of downstream blades 5 in the blade ring.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Rotor einer Strömungsmaschine mit mindestens einer Scheibe und mit mehreren lösbar mit der Scheibe verbundenen Laufschaufeln, wobei die Schaufel-Scheiben-Verbindung eine formschlüssige Profilierung aufweist und durch eine axiale oder vorwiegend axiale Relativbewegung von Laufschaufel und Scheibe herstellbar und lösbar ist, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a rotor of a turbomachine with at least one disc and with a plurality of detachably connected to the disc blades, wherein the blade-disc connection has a form-fitting profiling and by an axial or predominantly axial relative movement of blade and disc produced and solvable, according to the preamble of
Rotoren mit einer derartigen Schaufel-Scheiben-Verbindung entsprechen dem Stand der Technik und werden bei Gasturbinentriebwerken regelmäßig eingesetzt. Diese Technik hat den Vorteil, dass einzelne Schaufeln im Beschädigungsfall leicht und schnell ausgetauscht werden können, im Gegensatz zur sogenannten Bliskbauweise. Die lastübertragenden Flächen der formschlüssigen Verbindung sind bevorzugt in Schwalbenschwanzform (dovetail) oder in Tannenbaumform (fir tree) profiliert, wobei die erste Form hauptsächlich im Verdichterbereich, die zweite Form hauptsächlich im Turbinenbereich zur Anwendung kommt.Rotors with such a blade-disc connection correspond to the state of the art and are regularly used in gas turbine engines. This technique has the advantage that individual blades can be easily and quickly replaced in the event of damage, in contrast to the so-called Bliskbauweise. The load-transmitting surfaces of the positive connection are preferably profiled in dovetail or fir tree, the first form being used mainly in the compressor area, the second shape mainly in the turbine area.
Demgegenüber besteht die Aufgabe der Erfindung darin, einen Rotor mit einer lösbaren Schaufel-Scheiben-Verbindung vorzuschlagen, wobei Letztere festigkeits- und gewichtsmäßig optimiert ist.In contrast, the object of the invention is to propose a rotor with a detachable blade-disc connection, the latter being optimized in terms of strength and weight.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die in Anspruch 1 gekennzeichneten Merkmale gelöst, in Verbindung mit den gattungsbildenden Merkmalen in dessen Oberbegriff. Erfindungsgemäß weisen die profilierten Schaufelfüße und/oder der profilierte Scheibenrand im axial mittleren Bereich Aussparungen auf. Dadurch wird im mechanisch weniger belasteten Bereich der Schaufel-Scheiben-Verbindung in erheblichem Maße Material und somit Gewicht eingespart, ohne das Verformungsverhalten, Schwingungsverhalten und die Lebensdauer des Rotors negativ zu beeinflussen. Durch das verringerte Massenträgheitsmoment ist der Rotor leichter zu beschleunigen und zu verzögern. Ggf. können die Scheibe als solche, angrenzende Wellen etc. filigraner und leichter ausgefüllt werden.This object is achieved by the features characterized in
Bevorzugt weisen die profilierten Schaufelfüße und der profilierte Scheibenrand im axial mittleren Bereich korrespondierende Aussparungen auf, welche einen in Umfangsrichtung um den Scheibenrand herum verlaufenden, torusartigen Hohlraum bilden.The profiled blade feet and the profiled disk edge preferably have corresponding recesses in the axially central region, which form a torus-like cavity running around the edge of the disk in the circumferential direction.
Diese und weitere bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen des Rotors sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.These and other preferred embodiments of the rotor are characterized in the subclaims.
Die Erfindung wird anschließend anhand der
Im oberen Bereich der Figur ist der Fußbereich einer Laufschaufel 6 mit sogenannter Cutoff-Auslegung dargestellt. Das Schaufelblatt geht nach unten in eine innere Plattform 14 über, mit deren Unterseite der profilierte Schaufelfuß 10 verbunden ist. Erfindungsgemäß weist der Schaufelfuß 10 im axial mittleren Bereich eine gewichtsreduzierende Aussparung 12 auf. Die axiale Erstreckung des Schaufelfußes 10 kann, wie dargestellt, stromaufwärts und stromabwärts der Aussparung 12 etwa gleich sein. Ebenso ist es möglich, den in Betrieb stärker belasteten Bereich des Schaufelfußes axial länger, d. h. mit mehr tragender Fläche, auszuführen. In letzterem Fall wird die Aussparung 12 entsprechend aus der axialen Mitte näher zu einem axialen Ende des Schaufelfußes 10 verschoben.In the upper part of the figure, the foot of a
Im unteren Bereich der Figur ist der Randbereich einer korrespondierenden Scheibe 4 mit einem profilierten und erleichterten Scheibenrand 9 dargestellt. Die Aussparung 11 teilt den profilierten Scheibenrand 9 in einen stromaufwärtigen und einen stromabwärtigen Bereich. Bezüglich der axialen Erstreckung dieser beiden Bereiche gelten die obigen Aussagen zum Schaufelfuß 10 entsprechend. Ausgehend vom rechten Bereich des Scheibenrandes 9 erstreckt sich ein ringförmiger Flansch mit seinem Querschnitt vorwiegend vertikal nach unten, wobei ein Wuchtgewicht an diesem befestigt ist.In the lower part of the figure, the edge region of a
Zur Montage der Laufschaufel 6 an der Scheibe 4 wird der Schaufelfuß 10 in axialer bzw. vorwiegend axialer Richtung von stromaufwärts oder stromabwärts in den komplementär profilierten Scheibenrand 9 eingeschoben. Falls die axiale Erstreckung der Aussparungen 11 und 12 ausreichend groß ist, kann die Laufschaufel 6 zur Montage beispielsweise mit dem rechten Bereich ihres Schaufelfußes 10 zunächst radial in die Aussparung 11 gesteckt werden, wobei sich der linke Bereich des Scheibenrandes 9 in die Aussparung 12 bewegt. Danach genügt eine relativ kleine, axiale Relativbewegung zwischen Laufschaufel 6 und Scheibe 4, um die Montage-Sollposition zu erreichen. Eine dann erforderliche, axiale Fixierung, z. B. mittels Blechen, Nieten, Schrauben etc. ist dem Fachmann geläufig und der Einfachheit halber nicht dargestellt. Im montierten Zustand bilden die in Umfangsrichtung zumindest annähernd fluchtenden Aussparungen 11 und 12 einen torusartigen Hohlraum, welcher erhebliche Gewichtseinsparungen ermöglicht.To mount the
Es sei erwähnt, dass es auch möglich ist, Aussparungen nur am Scheibenfuß oder nur am Scheibenrand vorzusehen, wobei die Gewichtseinsparung dann aber deutlich geringer ausfällt.It should be noted that it is also possible to provide recesses only at the disk base or only at the edge of the disk, but the weight saving then but significantly lower.
Zur Herstellung der Aussparungen 11, 12 sei gesagt, dass diese spanabhebend, z. B. durch Bohren, Drehen, Fräsen, Räumen und/oder Schleifen, und/oder elektrisch, z. B. durch Funkenerosion, und/oder elektrochemisch, z. B. durch ECM und/oder PECM, gefertigt werden können. Eine Oberflächenverfestigung der Aussparungen 11, 12 ist beispielsweise durch Festwalzen und/oder Kugelstrahlen möglich. Zum Schutz gegen Korrosion, Oxidation und/oder Sulfidation sind entsprechende Beschichtungen der Aussparungen 11, 12 anwendbar.For the preparation of the
