Cooling the rotor of an axial gasturbine

The multi-stage turbine (1) drives a compressor (10) mounted on a common shaft (13). The shaft part between turbine and compressor is a drum (14) enclosed by a cover (15) forming a ring channel (20) containing a labyrinth seal (21) which seals against the cover (15). The drum cover together with the...

Zusammenfassung:The multi-stage turbine (1) drives a compressor (10) mounted on a common shaft (13). The shaft part between turbine and compressor is a drum (14) enclosed by a cover (15) forming a ring channel (20) containing a labyrinth seal (21) which seals against the cover (15). The drum cover together with the end side (18) of the turbine rotor (3) define a radially wheel side chamber (19). At least one separate pipe (22) leading the rotor cooling air from the compressor to the end side of the rotor is connected to the wheel side chamber by at least two vortex nozzles (23). Cooling devices (24) are provided from the rotor and rotor vane rim. The entire cooling air on the rotor side for the turbine is removed from the compressor at the compressor outlet.
