摘要:
A sealing element (30) for a turbine of a gas turbine engine includes a radially inner surface region provided with an integrally formed seal structure (38) comprising a plurality of radially inwardly projecting walls (40). The walls may be abradable and may define cells (44) for receiving an abradable sealing material.

The adjoining edges of bucket covers are sealed one to the other. A brush seal projecting from a stationary shroud overlies the bucket covers. A joint at which the adjacent covers sealingly engage each other precludes radial outflow of high pressure fluid into bristles of the brush seal, preventing radial and axial deflection of the bristles and consequent failure of the bristles. The joints between the covers may comprise lap or tongue-and-groove joints.

A base plate and honeycomb member disposed at the inner circumference side of an inside shroud are fixed to the inside shroud, at a phase deviation in the peripheral direction, with respect to the inside shroud, so as to plug the missing range of seal member, out of gaps between adjacent inside shrouds, and therefore leakage of purge air from the missing range of seal member is prevented without adding new constituent members.

The invention relates to a gas turbine seal, comprising a metallic component (1) with a durable or erosion-resistant ceramic coating (2) and an abradable ceramic layer (18) which is arranged thereon in locally delimited fashion, a bond layer (5) being arranged on the surface (4) of the metallic component (1), to which bond layer the durable or erosion-resistant ceramic coating (2) is applied as a covering layer. The invention is characterized in that the bond layer (5) comprises separate, adjacent spherical rivets (6) or mushroom-shaped rivets (6) which have a web (7) and a head (8). These rivets form individual metal islands with numerous undercuts (12), around which there is a continuous ceramic network. It is possible to produce very thick layers which have a good bond strength, the ceramic not being flaked away even in the event of introduction of radial/tangential forces, sickle-shaped contact or locally high overheating/frictional heat, and a good sealing action being achieved.

A gas turbine engine includes a non-rotatable member that includes a honeycomb seal that reduces wear to rotor seal teeth disposed within the gas turbine engine. The gas turbine engine also includes a rotatable annular member including a sealing assembly disposed between rotor and stator components. The rotatable annular member includes seal teeth that extend radially outward from the rotatable annular member. The stator components include a non-rotatable member that includes a honeycomb seal that extends radially inward. The honeycomb seal is fabricated from a material that has a melting temperature less than approximately 2000° F.

In a steam turbine, a combined brush and labyrinth seal is provided between a diaphragm web and a sealing surface on a rotatable component radially outwardly of the rotor surface. The contact between the brush seal and sealing surface lies along an axially upstream projecting flange of an annular platform such that heat generated by frictional contact between the bristles and the sealing surface has minimal effect on the rotor surface and hence rotor dynamics. A backup labyrinth seal is provided between the web and platform. Additionally, axially upstream projecting flanges are provided on the downstream buckets and which flanges are spaced radially outwardly of the rotor surface and lie in registration with the diaphragm web. Labyrinth teeth seal between the diaphragm web and the bucket flanges serving as a backup seal.

The present invention provides, in one embodiment, an annular turbine seal for disposition in a turbine between a rotatable component having an axis of rotation and a turbine housing about the same axis of rotation. The turbine seal has a plurality of arcuate seal carrier segments that have an abradable portion secured to the seal carrier segments. In addition, at least one spring is disposed on the seal carrier segment to exert a force and maintain the seal carrier segment adjacent to the rotatable component.

The coating of abradable material presents cavities opening out into the surface of the coating, the cavities extending over a fraction of the thickness of the coating and being defined by walls which form a plurality of continuous paths at the inside surface of the annular portion between the axial end faces thereof, and which form an angle of not less than 5° relative to the general direction of end portions of blades that might come into contact with the abradable material.

A ceramic matrix composite (CMC) component for a combustion turbine engine (10). A blade shroud assembly (30) may be formed to include a CMC member (32) supported from a metal support member (32). The CMC member includes arcuate portions (50, 52) shaped to surround extending portions (46, 48) of the support member to insulate the metal support member from hot combustion gas (16). The use of a low thermal conductivity CMC material allows the metal support member to be in direct contact with the CMC material. The gap (42) between the CMC member and the support member is kept purposefully small to limit the stress developed in the CMC member when it is deflected against the support member by the force of a rubbing blade tip (14). Changes in the gap dimension resulting from differential thermal growth may be regulated by selecting an angle (A) of a tapered slot (76) defined by the arcuate portion.
摘要:
The knife edge air seal ring of a gas turbine is modified to receive a replacement or second seal ring portion having a wire brush seal. The replacement or wire brush air seal ring is mounted with the existing knife edge air seal mounting ring at a location so that the existing mounting ring may be used, while providing adequate strength and structural support for installation of the second, wire brush seal ring. The replacement seal ring may be provided with knife edge seals as well, if desired.
