    摘要: A system for operating a turbine includes a rotating component and a non-rotating component separated from the rotating component by a clearance. A first actuator is connected to the non-rotating component, and the first actuator comprises a shape-memory alloy. A method for operating a turbine includes sensing a parameter reflective of a clearance between a non-rotating component and a rotating component and generating a parameter signal reflective of the clearance. The method further includes generating a control signal to at least one actuator based on the parameter signal and moving at least a portion of the non-rotating component relative to the rotating component to change the clearance.

    摘要: A system for passively controlling clearance in a turbine engine comprises a static assembly arranged circumferentially about an engine rotor assembly and defining a gap between a tip end of the rotor assembly and an adjacent inner surface of the static assembly. The static assembly includes a gap control member that defines the inner surface, is exposed to the engine working fluid, and comprises a shape memory material selected and preconditioned to deform in a pre-selected manner in response to a temperature of the engine working fluid. Alternatively, airfoil blades of the rotor assembly include a gap control member. A method for passively controlling clearance in a turbine engine comprises assembling the engine so as to define an initial set of build clearances, operating the engine to observe running clearances, configuring a gap control member comprising a shape memory material and re-assembling the engine with the gap control member.
