摘要:
A method for warming the rotor of a gas turbine during extended periods of downtime comprising feeding ambient air to an air blower; extracting compressed air from the air blower; feeding a portion of the compressed air to one side of a heat exchanger and steam (typically saturated) from e.g. a gas turbine heat recovery steam generator; passing the resulting heated air stream from the exchanger into and through into defined flow channels formed within the rotor; continuously monitoring the air temperature inside the rotor; and controlling the amount of air and steam fed to the heat exchanger using a feedback control loop that controls the amount of air and steam feeds to the exchanger and/or adjusts the flow rate of heated air stream into the rotor.

A gas turbine engine including a compressor section, a combustor section, and a turbine section operating to produce a power output during a first mode of operation. A heat retention and distribution system is provided to the engine wherein the heat retention system operates in a second mode of operation, following a shutdown of the engine, to maintain an elevated temperature in components of each of the compressor section, the combustor section and the turbine section in order to effect (1) a reduction in an effective cyclic life consumption of the components and extend a maintenance interval associated with the effective cyclic life consumption, and (2) clearances by maintaining a higher vane carrier temperature with time during a non-power producing mode and more uniform temperature of most stationary components in the circumferential orientation.

A wheel member includes a body having a first surface that extends to a second surface through an intermediate portion. The body includes an outer diametric surface and a central bore. A first plurality of purge circuits are formed in the body. The first plurality of purge circuits extend from a first end to a second end through the body. The first plurality of purge circuits are arranged to direct a first purge flow in a first direction. A second plurality of purge circuits are formed in the body and fluidly isolated from the first plurality of purge circuits. The second plurality of purge circuits extend from a first end portion to a second end portion through the body and are arranged to direct a second purge flow in a second direction, that is distinct from the first direction, to establish a cross-over purge flow system.

A rotor disk assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a rotor disk with a circumferentially intermittent slot structure that extends radially outward relative to an axis of rotation. A heat shield has a multiple of radial tabs engageable with the circumferentially intermittent slot structure to provide axial retention of the cover plate to the rotor disk.

A turbine rotor includes a high- and low-temperature side rotor base materials. The high- and low-temperature materials include concavities and grooves. The turbine rotor has an enclosed space formed by the concavity of the high- and low-temperature materials being disposed opposingly, and a gap formed by the grooves of the high- and low-temperature materials being disposed opposingly. The turbine rotor contains a buildup welding section formed between the high- and low-temperature materials, which has the same composition as that of the high- or low-temperature material, and has a penetration bead on the enclosed space side, and the gap contains a weld metal filled therein. Thus, a stable penetration bead can be formed in a dissimilar material welded rotor combining two kinds of alloy materials with different thermal properties, and then generation of a non-welded portion of a butting section that becomes a start point of fracture can be suppressed.
摘要:
A compressor compresses air to produce compressed air. A mixture of fuel and the compressed air is combusted in a combustor to produce combustion gas. The combustion gas is supplied to a turbine to obtain rotational power. High-temperature gas accumulated in a space partitioned by an exhaust-side bearing portion that rotatably supports a turbine shaft and an exhaust diffuser is discharged through an exhaust gas passage. The high-temperature gas is sucked into the exhaust gas passage by exhaust gas flowing in the exhaust diffuser.
摘要:
A high-pressure compressor (12), in particular in a gas turbine (10), has a compressor rotor (17) which is surrounded by a stator (18, 19) thereby forming a main flow channel (25) and which is delimited at the compressor outlet by an end face (30) substantially extending in the radial direction, along which end face cooling air (21) is conveyed in the radial direction for the purpose of cooling. A prolonged service life is achieved in that the end face (30) is provided with a first system (23, 24) for improving the heat transfer between the cooling air (21) and the end face (30).
摘要:
A gas turbine engine has, in flow series, a compressor section, a combustor, and a turbine section. The engine further has a cooling system which diverts a cooling air flow received from the compressor section to a heat exchanger and then to the turbine section to cool a component thereof. The cooling air flow by-passes the combustor and is cooled in the heat exchanger. The cooling system has a valve arrangement which regulates the cooling air flow. The engine further has a closed-loop controller which estimates and/or measures one or more temperatures of the cooled component, compares values derived from the estimated and/or measured temperatures with one or more corresponding targets, and issues a demand signal to the valve arrangement based on the comparison and a value of the demand signal at a previous time step.
摘要:
A hub structure includes an annular body and a flow guide unit. The annular body has a top end and a receiving space. The flow guide unit is disposed at the top end of the annular body. At least one raised section is formed on one face of the flow guide unit opposite to the receiving space. A motor set is disposed in the receiving space. When the motor set operates, the annular body and the flow guide unit are driven to rotate around the axis of a shaft rod. At this time, airflow is conducted through the raised section into the receiving space to dissipate the heat generated by the motor set. Accordingly, the temperature of the motor set can be effectively lowered to prolong the lifetime of the motor set.

A gas turbine includes ring segments and isolation rings that surround a channel for high-temperature gas W from an outer peripheral side, blade rings formed in an annular shape on the outer peripheral side of the ring segments and the isolation rings, and supporting members fitted into fitting concave portions recessed from the end faces of the blade rings in the direction of the axis and supporting the ring segments and the isolation rings. An inner wall surface of the fitting concave portion has a first inclined surface that inclines so as to narrow gradually from an opening edge of the fitting concave portion toward the inside of the blade ring in the direction of the axis, and the supporting member has a second inclined surface that inclines so as to correspond to the first inclined surface.
