TURBINE CASING FOR GAS TURBINE ENGINE
A casing assembly includes first case with a first case body at least partially disposed in a hot section. The first case body has a first case flange and the first case body adjacent to the first case flange is resiliently deformable. A second case downstream of the first case has a second case body with a second case flange extending radially outwardly to a radially-outer wall defining an outer diameter of the second case flange. The first case flange abuts the radially-outer wall of the second case flange. The second case has struts extending radially from an inner end to an outer end. The leading edge portion at the outer end of each of the struts has an axial position defined along the center axis that is similar to an axial position of the second case flange.
Manufacturing method of turbine casing
There is provided a manufacturing method of a turbine casing capable of easily realizing improvement of reliability. A manufacturing method of a turbine casing according to an embodiment is a manufacturing method of a turbine casing which includes an outer casing formed of ferritic heat resistant steel and an inner casing disposed inside the outer casing and formed of austenitic heat resistant steel, and in which an exhaust hood to which a working medium after performing work in turbine stages is exhausted, is covered by the inner casing. Here, the inner casing is manufactured by using members produced by at least either forging or rolling.
GUIDE VANE ASSEMBLY FOR A TURBOMACHINE
The present invention relates to a guide vane assembly for a turbomachine, having an adjustable vane, which can be adjusted in order to alter an angle of attack, and an adjusting element, by way of which the adjustable vane can be adjusted, wherein the adjustable vane and the adjusting element are connected to each other in a connecting region, and wherein the adjustable vane and the adjusting element adjoin each other in the connecting region at a break edge.
BLADE CONTAINMENT ASSEMBLY FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE
A blade containment assembly for a gas turbine engine comprises a casing having a first casing member surrounding a set of rotor blades and a second casing member extending axially from the first casing member. The first casing member has an outer annular wall welded to the second casing member at a weld joint disposed in a blade containment zone of the casing and an inner containment ring spaced radially inwardly from the outer annular wall and extending axially from a first location forward of the weld joint to a second location aft of the weld joint.
Moving blade of a turbo machine and method for producing the same
A rotor blade of a turbomachine, having a blade root, a blade airfoil which has a flow leading edge, a flow trailing edge, and flow-guiding surfaces extending between the flow leading edge and the flow trailing edge. The blade root and a radially inner section of the blade airfoil are made of a steel material, and a radially outer section of the blade airfoil is made of a more lightweight material.
Manufacturing method for cylindrical parts
A method includes mounting a hollow cylinder on a turntable, positioning an additive-manufacturing deposition tool at a surface of the hollow cylinder, and rotating the hollow cylinder on the turntable while depositing material on the hollow cylinder with the deposition tool. Further, a method includes making an opening in a wall of the hollow cylinder, forming a part to fit in the opening, and welding the part to the hollow cylinder such that the part fills the opening. The hollow cylinder has an inner radius and an outer radius, and the part is formed with an inner radius of curvature and an outer radius of curvature substantially similar to the inner radius and outer radius, respectively, of the hollow cylinder when the part is positioned in the opening.
METHOD OF MANUFACTURING TIAL ALLOY IMPELLER AND TIAL ALLOY IMPELLER
A method of manufacturing a TiAl alloy impeller includes a blank preparation step in which a blank of the TiAl alloy impeller is prepared, wherein the blank has a shaft portion and a plurality of blades, and a thickness of an outer edge of each of the blades of the blank is set so as to be larger than a thickness of an outer edge of a blade of the TiAl alloy impeller, and an additional work step in which an additional work is performed on each of the blades of the blank. In the additional work step, the additional work is performed on a first surface of a portion that includes at least the outer edge of each of the blades or the first surface and a second surface of the portion thereof.
