摘要:
The second-stage buckets have airfoil profiles substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in inches in Table I wherein Z is a perpendicular distance from a plane normal to a radius of the turbine centerline and containing the X and Y values with the Z value commencing at zero in the X, Y plane at the radially innermost aerodynamic section of the airfoil and X and Y are coordinate values defining the airfoil profile at each distance Z. The X and Y values may be scaled as a function of the same constant or number to provide a scaled-up or scaled-down airfoil section for the bucket. The second-stage wheel has sixty buckets.

A damper pin for a bucket damper slot in a turbine includes slot insertion ends shaped to fit into the bucket damper slot, and at least a first scallop section formed or machined between the slot insertion ends and shaped to receive a bucket shank pocket radial contour at bucket Hi-C. A second scallop section may also be formed or machined diametrically opposed and anti-symmetrical to the first scallop section between the slot insertion ends.
摘要:
A process for producing a rotor, the rotor formed thereby, as well as turbines in which such a rotor is installed. The rotor is formed by casting an ingot to have first and second regions formed of different alloys that intermix during casting to define a transition zone therebetween. The ingot is forged to yield a rotor forging that contains axially-aligned first and second alloy regions and a transition zone therebetween. The effects of the transition zone can be mitigated by modeling the transition zone and then off-center machining the forging so that the axis of rotation of the machined monolithic rotor is more centrally located with respect to the transition zone.
摘要:
A monolithic rotor comprising first and second rotor regions axially aligned within the monolithic rotor and a transition zone therebetween. The first and second rotor regions are formed of different alloys and the transition zone having a composition that differs from and varies between the first and second rotor regions. The first rotor region is located within a high pressure region of the monolithic rotor and is formed from an alloy chosen from the group consisting of CrMoV low alloy steels, martensitic stainless steels containing about 11 to about 14 weight percent chromium, Fe—Ni alloys, and nickel-base alloys. The second rotor region is located within a low pressure region of the monolithic rotor and is formed from an alloy chosen from the group consisting of NiCrMoV low alloy steels and martensitic stainless steels containing about 11 to about 14 weight percent chromium.

摘要:
A method of processing a rotor. The rotor is formed by casting an ingot to have first and second regions formed of different alloys that intermix during casting to define a transition zone therebetween. The ingot is forged to yield a rotor forging that contains axially-aligned first and second alloy regions and a transition zone therebetween. A three-dimensional approximation of the transition zone is generated, which can be used to predict the effects of the transition zone on the dynamic performance of a rotor machined from the forging.
摘要:
A gas turbine has buckets rotatable about an axis, the buckets having angel wing seals. The seals have outer and inner surfaces, at least one of which, and preferably both, extend non-linearly between root radii and the tip of the seal body. The profiles are determined in a manner to minimize the weight of the seal bodies, while maintaining the stresses below predetermined maximum or allowable stresses.
摘要:
A tuning rib is added preferably in the aft cavity of a cored turbine bucket to alter the bucket's natural frequencies. The tuning rib may be a solid rib or a segmented rib and is particularly suited for altering high order frequency modes such as 2T, 4F and 1-3S. As such, detrimental crossings of natural bucket frequencies and gas turbine stimuli can be avoided to thereby improve the reliability of a gas turbine without impacting other features of the bucket that are important to the performance of the gas turbine.
