摘要： A rotor blade for a turbine of a gas turbine includes an airfoil. The airfoil may have a leading edge, a trailing edge, an outboard, and an inboard end that attaches to a root configured to couple the rotor blade to a rotor disc. The airfoil may have a cooling configuration that includes elongated cooling channels for receiving and directing a coolant through the airfoil. The rotor blade may further include: a tip shroud connected to the airfoil; outlet ports formed through an outboard face of the tip shroud that fluidly communicate with the cooling channels; and flow directing structure formed on the outboard surface of the tip shroud. The flow directing structure may be positioned relative to the outlet ports and configured for directing the flow of coolant discharged from the outlet ports. The rotor blade may be useful to reduce local tip shroud temperature as well as improved stage aerodynamic efficiency by reducing the coolant supply needed to maintain the component at desired temperature levels.

摘要： A turbine includes an inner casing, a rotor extending in a longitudinal direction, and rows of buckets transversely disposed on the rotor. A bearing cone covering a portion of the rotor and a flow guide extending from the inner casing define an annular passage for flow of exhaust gases. Exhaust gas movement is facilitated by a guide cap having a streamlined surface and situated in a downstream direction of the flow guide, a tip leakage flow injection channel to inject exhaust gases at the inner surface of the flow guide, an incline of the casing of the turbine surrounding the last stage buckets relative to the longitudinal axis, or use of a first portion of the annular passage with a substantially constant surface area and a second portion of the annular passage with a progressively increasing surface area.
