摘要:
An extraction unit for a steam turbine includes an end plate mounted downstream of a selected stage of a steam turbine, the end plate sealing the selected stage from the atmosphere, and an extraction pipe passing through the end plate for extracting steam from the selected stage.

Supports for a first casing of a turbomachine are disclosed that each include a thermal control system to control thermal expansion thereof. The thermal control system may include: a sealed duct surrounding a support column of the turbomachine, the duct being coupled to a source of a cooling fluid flow, and/or a hollow leg supporting the inner casing on the support column with a conduit supplying operative fluid, e.g., steam, from a stage of turbomachine to the hollow leg.

A remote adjustment and measurement system for a steam turbine nozzle assembly is disclosed. In one embodiment, a steam turbine casing segment is disclosed including: a horizontal joint surface; a pocket having a first opening at the horizontal joint surface and a second opening substantially opposing the first opening; and a path accessible from a radially outward surface of the steam turbine casing segment, the path fluidly connected to the second opening of the pocket.
摘要:
A seal assembly having a flexible cloth seal which includes a shim assemblage surrounded by a cloth assemblage. A first tubular end portion, such as a gas turbine combustor, includes a longitudinal axis and has smooth and spaced-apart first and second surface portions defining a notch therebetween which is wider at its top than at its bottom and which extends outward from the axis. The second surface portion is outside curved, and a first edge of the cloth seal is positioned in the bottom of the notch. A second tubular end portion, such as a first stage nozzle, is located near, spaced apart from, and coaxially aligned with, the first tubular end portion. The second tubular end portion has a smooth third surface portion which surrounds at least a portion of the first tubular end portion and which is contacted by the cloth seal.
摘要:
A seal joint including a sealing member for sealing segmented components of a gas turbine engine is spaced from the gas path to provide more effective cooling. The segments include radial extension flanges spacing the seal joint from the gas path. Various cooling arrangements are adaptable to the modified segments to provide for open or closed circuit impingement or convection cooling plus film cooling. Excessive thermal gradients are avoided as the entire corner of the segment is evenly cooled. Moreover, air usage at the joint is bounded by seal leakage with no extra dedicated cooling air.
