    摘要: The invention relates to a method and a set of balance weights for balancing a rotor, particularly of a turbomachine, on which a plurality of balance weights, which are distributed over the periphery, can be arranged for balancing an imbalance. A set of balance weights, in particular plate-shaped weights, with a predetermined number of groups of balance weights, is used for balancing the rotor. Each of the balance weights of every group of balance weights has an identical weight that is assigned to this group and a shape assigned to this group, which differs in basic shape and/or thickness of the balance weights from the balance weights of the other groups.

    摘要: An exhaust gas treatment device, an aircraft propulsion system and method for treating an exhaust gas stream are provided. The exhaust gas treatment has a condenser, which condenses at least a portion of water contained in the exhaust gas stream from the turbomachine and thereby releases a first energy; an evaporator, which evaporates at least a portion of the water condensed in the condenser and thereby absorbs a second energy, which is extracted from the exhaust gas stream from the turbomachine; a turbine, which is driven by steam output by the evaporator and expands the steam; a fan, which can be driven by the turbine and feeds the condenser ambient air in order that it absorb the first energy; and at least one exhaust apparatus, out of which the ambient air given off by the condenser and/or a dehumidified exhaust gas stream is exhausted from the condenser.

    摘要: A method is described for reducing contrails during operation of an aircraft (100, 100′) having a heat engine 10. The method includes inducing a condensation of moisture contained in the exhaust gas (A) of the heat engine by mixing at least a portion of the exhaust gas with ambient air (U) of the aircraft as well as separating the condensed-out water on the aircraft. Also described is an aircraft (100, 100′) having a heat engine (10). The aircraft includes at least one nozzle (30) which is adapted for conducting exhaust gas (A) from the heat engine of the aircraft at least partially into ambient air (U) of the aircraft and thus to produce a gas mixture, and at least one separator device (40) for separating condensed-out water from the gas mixture.

    摘要: A lever assembly forming part of a vane actuating mechanism and serving to connect a stator vane of a turbomachine to an actuating ring of an actuator is provided. The lever assembly is adapted such that an actuating lever of the lever assembly is moved in a first mounting direction transversely to a vane stem of the stator vane extending radially relative to a longitudinal machine axis of the turbomachine and is thereby positioned laterally against the vane stem, and that the actuating lever is radially form-fittingly locked to the vane stem by a locking piece in a second mounting direction. An assembly method and a turbomachine is also provided.
