Method for cleaning turbine blades under operation conditions, corresponding turbocharger and turbine

A method for cleaning a number of turbine blades (13, 28) of a turbine (11) under operation conditions by means of a cleaning fluid (21) which is sprayed onto the turbine blades (13, 28) by a number of nozzles (14) is disclosed. The method is characterised in that the cleaning fluid (21) is distribu...

Zusammenfassung:A method for cleaning a number of turbine blades (13, 28) of a turbine (11) under operation conditions by means of a cleaning fluid (21) which is sprayed onto the turbine blades (13, 28) by a number of nozzles (14) is disclosed. The method is characterised in that the cleaning fluid (21) is distributed to the nozzles (14) such that only a fraction of the nozzles (14) is used at any one time to spray the cleaning fluid (21) onto the turbine blades (13, 28). Furthermore, a turbine (11) comprising a number of rotor blades (13), a number of stator blades (28) and a number of nozzles (14) is described. Each nozzle (14) is connected to a cleaning fluid supply (24). The turbine (11) further comprises at least one distribution unit which is designed such that the cleaning fluid can be distributed to only a fraction of the nozzles (14) at any one time. Moreover, a turbocharger comprising an inventive turbine (11) is disclosed.
