Casing arrangement for a gas turbine
The present invention relates to a gas turbine casing arrangement having a gas turbine casing element (10), a guide-vane ring with an outer ring (20), and a coated ring (30), which lies radially opposite a rotor grid (40) adjacent to the guide-vane ring, whereby an intermediate ring (50) by a downstream front face (51) engages behind an upstream stop (61; 61′) fixed in place on the casing element, and by an upstream front face (52) of a radial flange (53) of the intermediate ring engages behind a downstream stop (22) fixed in place on the outer ring, in order to secure the guide-vane ring axially at the gas turbine casing element in the direction of through-flow.
