摘要:
A method for enhancing one or more performance parameters of a gas turbine having at least one row of clocked airfoils may generally include choosing a first, a second and a third row of airfoils where the third row is clocked relative to the first row. An unsteady computational fluid dynamics model may be used to determine at least one wake parameter of a working fluid flowing from the second row of the airfoils to the third row of the airfoils. At least one design parameter of the airfoils of the second row may be modified, and the unsteady computational fluid dynamics model may then be used to determine the effect of the airfoil design parameter modification on the at least one wake parameter. The effect on the wake parameter may be compared to a predetermined target range.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a turbomachine having a turbomachine blade and a stationary structural component. The turbomachine blade includes a tip shroud having a leading edge portion where the leading edge portion has a first surface. The stationary structural component is disposed about the turbomachine blade and includes a corresponding portion corresponding to the leading edge portion of the tip shroud, where the corresponding portion has a second surface, where the first surface and the second surface have generally parallel contours.
摘要:
An architecture making it possible to provide sufficient absorption of shocks for a power shaft while maintaining rigidity at front bearings so as to not compromise meshing of power teeth of a drive pinion. A compressible dynamic shock absorption is provided in alignment with a downstream shock absorber of an additional meshing. An assembly for dynamically absorbing shocks for a power shaft includes upstream and downstream bearings including power rollers mounted on two casings and flanking a speed-reducing teeth meshing. The downstream bearing is coupled to at least one additional roller bearing associated with a compressible shock absorber to form a downstream shock absorber axially offset relative to the upstream bearing opposite the teeth meshing. Both downstream bearings are connectable by a flexible frame mounted on the common casing. The architecture can be used for power-transmission shafts, for example supercritical shafts in turbine engines.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed toward systems including a turbomachine blade tip shroud having a pressure side portion and a suction side portion. The pressure side portion and the suction side portion are divided by a mean camber line of a turbomachine blade, and the pressure side portion has a greater surface area than the suction side portion.

A turbine blade includes an airfoil portion including a suction side having a suction side contour, a pressure side having a pressure side contour, a leading edge, a trailing edge and a tip portion, and a squeeler pocket formed in the tip portion. The squeeler pocket includes a first side wall and a second side wall. The first side wall includes a first internal surface having a first substantially continuous curvilinear profile and the second side wall includes a second internal surface having a second substantially continuous curvilinear profile. A bleed passage extends from the squeeler pocket towards the trailing edge. The first and second side walls are configured to deliver a substantially unobstructed fluid flow from the squeeler pocket to the bleed passage and limit the fluid flow spillage onto one of the pressure side and the suction side.

Turbine blade assemblies of a turbine include airfoils that are mounted on bases. The leading and/or trailing edges of the bases are provided with curved portions. Likewise, curved portions may be provided on leading and/or trailing edges of the angle wings of a turbine blade assembly. Also, curved portions may be provided on the leading and/or trailing edges of nozzle assemblies of a turbine.

A power generating turbine system that includes: a turbine that includes three sections, a high-pressure turbine section, a mid-pressure turbine section, and a low-pressure turbine section that each reside on a separate shaft; 2) an axial compressor that compresses a flow of air that is then mixed with a fuel and combusted in a combustor such that the resulting flow of hot gas is directed through the turbine, the axial compressor comprising a high-pressure compressor section and a low-pressure compressor section; 3) a two-pole generator; 4) a four-pole generator; 5) a first shaft that couples the high-pressure turbine section to the high-pressure compressor section such that, in operation, the high-pressure turbine section drives the high-pressure compressor section; 6) a second shaft that couples the mid-pressure turbine section to the high-pressure compressor section and the two-pole generator such that, in operation, the mid-pressure turbine section drives the high-pressure compressor section and two-pole generator; and 7) a third shaft that couples the low-pressure turbine section to the four-pole generator such that in operation the low-pressure turbine section drives the four-pole generator.

An instrumentation rake assembly comprises a rake tower capped at an immersed end and mated to a lead carrier at a base end. The rake tower comprises a curved wall oriented along a longitudinal axis and supporting a plurality of probe holders. The curved wall has an inner surface defining an internal passage for carrying instrumentation from the probe holders to the lead carrier. In another aspect, an instrumentation rake assembly comprises a plurality of rake towers, each having a base end and an immersed end, and each rake tower being coupled at its immersed end to one or more other rake towers.
