Definitions

  • the publication US 2012/051 900 A1 discloses a vane grille with sidewall contouring in which a platform surface between the pressure side of one of the airfoils and the suction side of another of the airfoils each has a protrusion and a recess which together form an axially extending arcuate channel.
  • the second airfoil may be partially based on the further survey.
  • An embodiment has proved to be advantageous in which the further elevation has its highest point (s) on a borderline between the second blade (or its suction side) and the platform surface.
  • the platform surface may be convex or concave.
  • FIG. 1 is schematically illustrated in plan view (with radial viewing direction) an exemplary, developed embodiment of a blade grid segment 1 according to the invention. It comprises airfoils 20, 30, which each have a pressure side and a suction side, and a platform 10 according to the invention with a platform edge 10a (with respect to the intended main flow direction X) and a downstream platform edge 10b.
  • the platform may be formed in one piece or, for example, in two parts (not shown), in particular it may comprise two parts, of which in each case one of the blades 20, 30 protrudes.
  • the blades 20, 30 define an axial grid width g by the distance, measured in the axial main flow direction X, of their leading edges 23, 33 from their trailing edges 24, 34 on the platform surface.
  • the platform surface has one extending to the suction side 31 of the other (second) airfoil 30, in the FIG. 1 Again, illustrated by contour lines depression 13 with a lowest point 14.
  • the airfoil 30 is partially (namely in its front region) in the recess 13th
  • the highest point 12 and the lowest point 14 lie in an intermediate strip Z of the platform surface.
  • the inflow-side and the outflow-side boundary of the intermediate strip Z run parallel to the inflow-side platform edge 10a.
  • FIG. 2 shows an alternative embodiment of an unwrapped blade grid segment according to the invention 1 'in plan view (with a radial viewing direction). It includes like that in FIG. 1 shown blade airfoils 20, 30 and a platform 10 according to the invention with a platform surface and a (based on the intended, axial main flow direction X) upstream platform edge 10a and a downstream platform edge 10b.
  • blade grid segment 1 also has the platform surface of in FIG. 2 shown blade lattice segment 1 'extending to the pressure side 21 of the one (first) blade 20 elevation 11' with a highest point 12 'and extending to the suction side 31 of the other (second) blade 30 recess 13' with a lowest point 14th '.
  • the highest point 12 'of the elevation and the deepest point 14' of the depression are both in the intermediate strip Z, which is defined by the distances a, b as described above, ie at least 30% and at most 60% of the axial grid width g downstream of Leading edges 23, 33 of the blades 20, 30 arranged.
  • the inflow-side platform edge 10a covers the elevation 11 'in a section 11'a.
  • the inflow-side platform edge 10a therefore also has a (in the FIG. 2 not shown) contour by (as a graph of a one-dimensional function) in the area 11 'a has a local maximum.
  • a blade lattice segment 1, 1 'of a blade lattice of a turbomachine which comprises at least two airfoils g defining a blade widths 20, 30 and a platform 10 with a platform surface and an upstream platform edge 10a.
  • the platform surface has a raised to the pressure side 21 of a first of the blades 20 elevation 11, 11 'and extending to the suction side 32 of the other of the blades 30 recess 13, 13'.
  • At least one highest point 12, 12 'of the elevation 11, 11' and at least one lowest point 14, 14 'of the recess 13, 13' lie at least 30% and at most 60% of the axial grid width g downstream of the Leading edges 23, 33 of the blades 20, 30.
  • the elevation 11, 11 'and the recess 13, 13' each zoom up to the upstream platform edge 10a zoom.
