In an assembly method for a turbine, measured shape data is acquired by measuring a shape for each of a plurality of casing components in a state in which the plurality of casing components are not fastened to each other. self-weighted state shape data, which is shape data when self-weight is applied, is created for each of the plurality of casing components. A reference shape model is corrected based on a difference between the measured shape data of a target measurement part and the self-weighted state shape data of the target measurement part. By using the corrected shape model, fastened state shape data, which is shape data in a state in which the plurality of casing components are fastened to each other, is estimated for each of the plurality of casing components.

Furthermore, a nut may be aligned with the ball stud bore and movably attached to the VTG lever prior to extending the ball stud through the ball stud bore, wherein the ball stud engages with the nut and fastens the ball stud to the VTG lever to operatively couple the VTG lever to the actuator linkage.

A clearance control assembly for a gas turbine engine that defines an axial direction and a radial direction and includes a stage of rotor blades and a shroud hanger. The assembly includes a case configured to be positioned outward along the radial direction from the stage of rotor blades when installed in the gas turbine engine. The case is further configured to be engaged with the shroud hanger at a first location when installed in the gas turbine engine. The assembly also includes a baffle positioned outward along the radial direction from the case to define a chamber therebetween. The baffle has a forward end and an aft end. The forward end of the baffle is engaged with the case to form a first seal and the aft end of the baffle is engaged with the case to form a second seal. The baffle, the case, or both define an inlet to allow a fluid to enter the chamber and the case defines an outlet to allow the fluid to exit the chamber.

Disclosed is an arrangement for coupling a fairing panel to an engine casing. The arrangement includes a pair of rigid brackets having a specific stiffness, wherein the pair of rigid brackets couple a first side of the fairing panel to a first side of the engine casing. The arrangement further includes a pair of flexible brackets comprising a first flexible bracket having a first stiffness and a second flexible bracket having a second stiffness more than the first stiffness. Moreover, the first stiffness and the second stiffness are less than the specific stiffness of the pair of rigid brackets. Furthermore, the pair of flexible brackets couple a second side opposite to the first side of the fairing panel to a second side opposite to the first side of the engine casing.

A method for provisionally ensuring the functional capability of a housing of a machine in the event of damage to the housing, the housing having a housing upper part and a housing lower part, which are detachably fastened to each other by housing flanges and by threaded bolts that extend through the housing flanges and are secured by nuts, the damage to the housing being at least one crack in one of the housing parts, which extends toward the other housing part. The housing is reinforced by support plates, which are each fastened to the outside of the housing flanges. A housing is reinforced by support plates of this type.

An exhaust gas turbocharger assembly includes a turbocharger, an actuator, and a bolted connection for releasably securing the actuator housing on a housing flange of the turbocharger housing. The bolted connection includes a through opening, an aperture bounded at the circumference by an internal thread made of a metal, and a fit bolt with a bolt body which merges axially into a bolt head. The bolt body has a first axial body section with an external thread formed in a manner complementary to the internal thread of the aperture, and a second axial body section arranged axially between the bolt head and the first body section. The fit bolt engages through the through opening of the actuator housing in the internal thread of the aperture with the external thread to clamp the actuator housing between the housing flange of the turbocharger housing and the bolt head of the fit bolt.

The invention relates to an assembly for an aircraft turbomachine, comprising a central element (1) for the ejection of gas, and a connecting flange (9) interposed between, upstream, a gas outlet (22a) made of metal for a turbomachine, and, at the downstream end, the central element (1). The connecting flange comprises an annular portion (9a) and flexible tabs (11) having axially: a first end (111a) where the tab is connected to the said annular portion, and a second free end (111b), projecting radially inwardly with respect to the first end and to which said tab is attached with the central element (1).

An assembly or disassembly method for a casing of a steam turbine in which an inner casing is installed in an outer casing, and the inner casing and the outer casing are fixed at a fixing position, wherein when the inner casing is assembled or disassembled in a state where the fixing position and a gravity center of the inner casing are at different positions in an axial direction of the inner casing, a tilt adjusting jig is interposed between the outer casing and the inner casing so that the assembly or disassembly of the casing is performed while maintaining a tilt of the inner casing with the tilt adjusting jig.
