    摘要: A rotor for a gas turbine is disclosed which includes alternating first and second set of rotor blades, the first set of rotor blades having a baseline profile and the second set of rotor blades having a profile with a cutback relative to the baseline profile, the cutback removing a portion of the baseline profile surrounding a maximum deflection point of a selected natural vibration mode. The cutback may be a tip trailing edge cutback at a span position located a distance away from the hub of at least 75% of the total span length. The selected natural vibration mode may be a natural vibration mode higher than the 1st natural vibration mode, more specifically may be the 3rd or 6th natural vibration mode.

    摘要: There is disclosed a diffuser pipe assembly having: a plurality of diffuser pipes circumferentially distributed around the central axis and configured for diffusing a flow of compressed air received from an impeller, the diffuser pipes having a diffuser conduit for directing the flow of compressed air, the diffuser conduit curving between an inlet end and an outlet end along a conduit axis, the diffuser conduit having a baseline surface, a first subset of the diffuser pipes having aero-dampers protruding from the baseline surfaces of their diffuser conduits such that the diffuser pipes of the first subset have a natural vibration frequency different than a natural vibration frequency of at least a second subset of the diffuser pipes.

    摘要: A rotor for a gas turbine is disclosed which includes alternating first and second set of rotor blades, the first set of rotor blades having a baseline profile and the second set of rotor blades having a profile with a cutback relative to the baseline profile, the cutback removing a portion of the baseline profile surrounding a maximum deflection point of a selected natural vibration mode. The cutback may be a leading edge cutback at a span position located a distance away from the hub between 20% and 50% of the total span length. The selected natural vibration mode may be a natural vibration mode higher than the 1st natural vibration mode, more specifically may be the 5th natural vibration mode.

    摘要: There is disclosed a brush seal assembly including at least one annular bristle pack. The at least one annular bristle pack extends circumferentially around a central axis of the brush seal assembly. The at least one annular bristle pack has bristles extending along longitudinal axes from roots to free tips. The bristles extend toward a cylindrical plane of a the seal land. Projections of the free tips on the cylindrical plane define a bristle tip projection surface being non-axisymmetric. A method of operating a brush seal assembly is also disclosed.
