摘要:
Cooling air passages are formed in the wall of an exhaust casing connected to a turbine casing of a gas turbine. Low pressure air extracted from the low pressure stage of an air compressor of the gas turbine is supplied to the cooling air passage from the portion near the downstream end of the exhaust casing. Cooling air flows through the cooling air passage toward the upstream end of the exhaust casing and then flows into an annular cavity formed in the turbine casing near the portion corresponding to the last turbine stage. Therefore, the metal temperature of the exhaust casing near the upstream end (near the joint between the exhaust casing and the turbine casing) is lowered by the cooling air and, as cooling air of a relatively high temperature is supplied to the cavity in the turbine casing, the metal temperature of the turbine casing near the downstream end becomes higher than that provided by a conventional cooling system. Therefore, the difference between the metal temperatures of the turbine casing and the exhaust casing becomes very small and the thermal stress exerted on the exhaust casing due to the temperature difference can be largely reduced.

A gas turbine moving blade steam cooling system in which leakage of steam for cooling a moving blade is prevented and thermal stress at a blade root end portion is mitigated. Each end portion of a blade root portion (3) of the moving blade (1) is projected so as to form a projection portions (4a, 4b). A steam passage 5 is provided between the projection portions (4a, 4b) and a steam supply port 5a and a steam recovery port (5b) are provided downwardly with the respect to the steam passage 5. The steam supply port (5a) connects to a steam supply passage (20) and the steam recovery port (5b) connects to a steam recovery passage (21). Steam is supplied from the steam supply port (5a) into a blade interior and is recovered through the steam recovery port (5b). Side surface seal plates (6, 7 and 8) are provided for preventing steam leakage. The steam cools the moving blade (1) and can be recovered without leakage and stress concentration due to heat at the projection portions (4a, 4b) of the blade root end portion.

A bolt has a male screw with a surface hardening portion that has an increased surface hardness and that is applied with a compressive residual stress. The male screw is formed by cutting the bolt, and performing a process to provide at least on the surface of the male screw of the bolt the surface hardening portion that has increased hardness and that is applied with a compressive residual stress. As a result, the fatigue resistance of the male screw is improved and the bolt is effective for use in a portion where the male screw is subject to a repetitive stress.
摘要:
A number of air-transpiration holes (4) are provided at a leading edge portion (2) of a cooled blade (1). Cooling air flowing through a cooling air passage (15) formed inside of the blade blows out to the blade surface of the leading edge portion (2) of the cooled blade (1) by way of the air-transpiration holes (4), to thereby shower-head cool the surface of the leading edge portion (2). The air-transpiration holes (4) are formed so as to extend substantially orthogonal to the leading edge surface of the cooled blade (1) such that the acute-angled portions are eliminated, whereby thermal stress is reduced and cracking is prevented.
摘要:
An air separator for a gas turbine, in which cracks are prevented from occurring at a flange portion of the air separator due to fretting fatigue. The air separator (20) has a cylindrical split structure formed by two separator members (20-1 and 20-2), of which one of the separators (20-1) is mounted on a rotor (1) whereas the other separator member (20-2) is mounted on a disc portion (7) on a side of a moving blade (2) by bolts (28) extending through bolt holes (23) formed in a flange portion (22). Cooling air from a compressor enters a space (6) from a duct (5) and passes to a passage (32) from a clearance (33) so that it is fed to air feed holes (43) and radial holes (44) of the disc portion (7). Alternatively, air holes (50) are provided in the flange portion (22) in the form of circumferential slots for covering a plurality of radial holes to feed the cooling air homogeneously so that a prior art air separator of an existing plant can be replaced.

The present invention provides a stationary blade of integrated segment construction, in which a thermal barrier coating can be applied to the whole blade surface and excessive stress can be avoided in a shroud. A plate seat connector is provided at each end face portion of an inside shroud and an outside shroud attached to outside and inside ends of gas turbine stationary blade. Several stationary blades are integrated by joining the plate seat connectors of the adjacent shrouds by means of bolts and nuts to provide a stationary blade of integrated segment construction.

A movable gas turbine blade includes a platform (10) which is provided with a groove (15). The groove is located on a blade trailing side of the platform. Also, the groove is rounded and has a depth which does not enter a stress line of the platform caused by a load on the blade. The groove functions to suppress a high thermal stress arising at a connection portion of a blade trailing edge and the platform of the gas turbine air cooled moving blade during unsteady (start and stop) operation of the turbine.
