SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SHIMMING A BEVEL GEAR IN AN IGB ON A GAS TURBINE WITHOUT REMOVAL OF THE BEVEL GEAR

A method for shimming a thrust bearing for an accessory power take off shaft to obtain optimal meshing of bevel gears within the internal gearbox (IGB) without disassembly of the IGB is enabled by relocating the thrust bearing from the engine sump. The accessory gearbox (AGB) is driven from a power off-take from the turbine spool via the IGB. The radial position of the power take-off bevel gear is established by a radial position of the thrust bearing attached to the exterior of the casing via a housing. Candidate shims are selected from a set each having different thicknesses, the shims are formed of two halves and placed between the housing and the engine casing to adjust the radial position of the thrust bearing and consequently the power take-off bevel gear, without requiring the disassembly of the IGB.

Alignment tool and method for aligning heavy machinery and equipment

Embodiments of the disclosure provide a tool and method for alignment adjustment of machinery. The tool may include a bottom plate, a top plate oriented in parallel planes, a low friction intermediate element between bottom plate and top plate, and a hydraulic actuator or electro-mechanic actuator arranged between the bottom plate and the top plate and capable of moving the top plate relative to the bottom plate.

Mobile electric power generation system

A system for providing mobile electric power includes a first transport including an inlet plenum and a generator, a second transport including a gas turbine, and a turbine exhaust unit, and a third transport including a generator exhaust air handling system, a combustion air handling system, and a turbine enclosure air handling system. The first transport, the second transport, and the third transport are separate transports that are independently movable in a transportation mode. In an operation mode, the first transport and the second transport are connected to each other such that a first end side of the first transport faces and is connected to a first end side of the second transport, and the inlet plenum mounted on the first transport is connected to an intake of the gas turbine mounted on the second transport. In the operation mode, the third transport is positioned at a predetermined distance relative to the connected first and second transports such that a first longitudinal side of the third transport faces a first longitudinal side of the first transport and a first longitudinal side of the second transport.

Locking spacer assembly, corresponding blade assembly, method for installing a locking spacer

A locking spacer assembly for filling a final spacer slot in a disk groove between platforms of adjacent blades of a blade assembly in an industrial gas turbine engine is presented. The locking spacer assembly includes a first side piece, a second side piece, a mid piece and a bolt. The bolt is disposed into the mid piece to position the mid piece in a radial position in an assembled state. The mid piece contacts the first side piece and the second side piece in the assembled state to prevent axial movements of the first and second side pieces in the disk groove. The bolt prevents a radial movement of the mid piece.
