摘要: A centrifugal impeller shroud assembly has a dynamically moveable impeller shroud for encasing a rotatable centrifugal impeller and resolving misalignment between the impeller shroud and the rotatable centrifugal impeller. The assembly comprises a static casing, an impeller shroud, a shroud arm, and a thermal member. The shroud arm is coupled between the casing and the impeller shroud. The thermal member is coupled to the impeller shroud and has a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) lower than the CTE of the shroud. The shroud arm comprises a flexible portion configured to flex responsive to a differential pressure across the shroud arm.

摘要: A compressor shroud assembly is disclosed comprising a dynamically moveable impeller shroud, a static compressor casing, an air piston mounted between said impeller shroud and said compressor casing, and a clearance control system. The air piston effects axial movement of said impeller shroud responsive to a supply of actuating air. The clearance control system regulates the pressure of actuating air in said air piston and comprises a supply conduit having a supply modulating valve and a discharge conduit having a blowoff check valve. The blowoff check valve is set to open at a predetermined differential pressure between pressure of the air piston and pressure of the supply of actuating air.
