A turbomachinery component with a surface that includes a bounded wear coat, the component includes: a body; a contact surface defined by the body; a recess extending into the body and communicating with the contact surface; and a wear coat positioned in the recess.

A tip shroud includes a pair of opposed, axially extending wings configured to couple to an airfoil at a radially outer end thereof. The tip shroud also includes a tip rail extending radially from the pair of opposed, axially extending wings. Tip shroud surface profiles may be of the downstream and/or upstream side of the tip rail, a leading Z-notch of the tip shroud, and/or downstream radially inner surface of a wing. The surface profiles may have a nominal profile substantially in accordance with at least part of Cartesian coordinate values of X and Y, and perhaps Z and a thickness, set forth in a respective table. The radially inner surface of the wing may define a protrusion extending along the radially outer end of the airfoil, the suction side fillet, and a radial inner surface of the wing to an axial edge of the wing.

A shroud segment including a forward radial wall, an aft radial wall and at least one interlocking subcomponent. The forward radial wall, an aft radial wall and the at least one interlocking subcomponent are each formed of a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) including reinforcing fibers embedded in a matrix. The shroud segment further including an interlocking mechanical joint joining each of the forward radial wall and the aft radial wall to the at least one interlocking subcomponent. Methods are also provided for joining the forward radial wall and the aft radial wall to the at least one interlocking subcomponent using an interlocking mechanical joint.

A rotating machine includes a rotating body rotatably supported in a casing; a rotor blade fixed to an outer peripheral portion of the rotating body; a stator blade arranged on a downstream side in a fluid flow direction with respect to the rotor blade and fixed to an inner peripheral portion of the casing; a sealing device arranged between the inner peripheral portion and a front end of the rotor blade; a swirling flow generation chamber provided in the casing on the downstream side from the sealing device along a circumferential direction of the rotating body; and guiding members provided in the swirling flow generation chamber along a radial direction of the rotating body and in the circumferential direction at predetermined intervals. The swirling flow generation chamber has a wall surface located on the downstream side from an edge of the stator blade on an upstream side.

A sealing device according to at least one embodiment includes not less than three arc-shaped fins arranged in an axial direction. The arc-shaped fins include: a first fin which is one of two outermost fins located on an outermost side in the axial direction; a second fin disposed adjacent to the first fin in the axial direction; and at least one third fin disposed opposite to the first fin across the second fin in the axial direction. It is preferable that the third fin is disposed to be inclined with respect to a radial direction such that a tip end portion is located on a side of the first fin in the axial direction relative to a base end portion, and the third fin has a larger inclination angle than the first fin or the second fin with respect to the radial direction.

The present invention relates to a rotating blade for a turbomachine, having a blade element and a shroud, wherein the shroud is profiled at a peripheral side, i.e., when observed in a tangential section, has a contact flank that is oriented axially, at least proportionally, and has a free flank that is also oriented axially, at least proportionally, and is in fact opposite the contact flank, wherein, when observed in the tangential section, an intermediate segment between the contact flank and the free flank has a first curvature in a first transition segment to the contact flank and has a second curvature in a second transition segment to the free flank, wherein the first curvature is greater than the second curvature.

A blade for a turbomachine includes a blade root portion for securing the blade to a rotatable annular outer drum rotor. The blade root portion includes one or more radial retention features for radially retaining each of the blade root portions within the rotatable annular outer drum rotor. Further, at least one of the radial retention feature(s) includes at least one sealing member integrated therewith.

The invention concerns an inter-blade profile (14) for a turbine runner blade, said inter-blade profile (14) comprising a profile (16), and a plug (18), forming a basis of the profile (16) and intended for being inserted into a corresponding hole (21) made in a blade.

A tip shroud may include a platform to couple to an airfoil having a pressure side and a suction side. A front tip rail and a rear tip rail extend radially from the platform with each including a downstream side, an upstream side, and an origin(s). Each of the downstream side and the upstream side of the rear tip rail and the downstream side of the front tip rail has a shape having a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y, Z set forth in a respective table and originating at a selected origin. The Cartesian coordinate values are non-dimensional values of from 0% to 100% convertible to distances by multiplying the X, Y, Z values by a minimum rear tip rail X-wise extent expressed in units of distance. The X, Y, Z values are connected by lines to define each respective surface profile.

The present invention relates to a rotor blade arrangement for a turbomachine, with a rotor blade which has a sealing tip radially on the outside, and with a seal arrangement, wherein the seal arrangement forms a radially inwardly open cavity, in which the sealing tip is arranged, to which end the seal arrangement has a first sealing element, namely a first seal carrier with a first run-in coating, and a second sealing element, wherein the first run-in coating delimits the cavity radially on the outside, and the second sealing element delimits the cavity in an axial direction, and wherein the first and the second sealing element are assembled.
