摘要: A method of damping vibrations in a seal includes inserting a first wave spring between a first beam and a second beam of the seal. The seal can be for a gas turbine engine and can include a full hoop outer ring, a shoe coupled to the full hoop outer ring via the first beam (e.g., an outer beam) and the second beam (e.g., an inner beam), and the first wave spring in contact with the first beam and the second beam.

摘要: The present disclosure is directed to a gas turbine engine including a turbine rotor, a turbine frame at least partially surrounding the turbine rotor, and an outer diameter seal assembly. The turbine rotor includes an inner shroud, an outer shroud, and at least one connecting airfoil coupling the inner shroud and the outer shroud. The outer shroud includes a plurality of outer shroud airfoils extended inward along a radial direction. The outer diameter seal assembly includes a sliding portion disposed between the turbine frame and the outer shroud of the turbine rotor. The outer diameter seal assembly defines a secondary tooth at the outer shroud radially inward of a longitudinal face of the sliding portion, and a primary tooth defined axially adjacent to a radial face of the sliding portion.

摘要: A turbine ring assembly includes ring sectors forming a turbine ring, and a ring support structure having two annular flanges, each ring sector having a portion forming an annular base with an inner face defining the inside face of the turbine ring and an outer face from which there project at least two tabs, the tabs being retained between the two annular flanges. Each tab of the ring sectors includes a projecting portion on its face situated facing one of the two annular flanges, this projecting portion co-operating with a housing present in the annular flange. Each tab of the ring sectors includes an opening in which there is received a portion of a retention element secured to the annular flange situated facing the tab. The retention element is made of a material having a thermal expansion coefficient that is greater than that of the material of the ring sectors.

摘要: An expander may include a longitudinal axis, an inner casing split horizontally along the longitudinal axis, an outer casing split horizontally along the longitudinal axis and spaced radially outward from and encompassing the inner casing. Each axial end of the outer casing may form a respective gland seal housing, and the outer casing and inner casing may define an exhaust chamber therebetween. A plurality of expansion stages including a rotor shaft may be disposed within the inner casing and configured to expand the working fluid received from a working fluid source. A plurality of seals may be disposed within each of the gland seal housings and mounted circumferentially about the rotor shaft. The plurality of seals may include an annular seal, a plurality of dynamically self-adjustable seals disposed outboard of the annular seal, and at least one dry gas seal disposed outboard of the plurality of dynamically self-adjustable seals.

摘要: A method for assembling a turbomachine, the turbomachine has an inner part for arranging in an outer case, which has a parting joint extending along an axis and is divisible into an outer-case upper part and an outer-case lower part. The inner part has rotor parts for rotating about the axis during operation and static components and has at least one seal extending in the circumferential direction for sealing a gap between the inner part and a sealing surface of the outer case. The method includes: providing the outer-case lower part, inserting the inner part into the outer-case lower part in a first axial position, joining the outer-case lower part and outer-case upper part, axially moving the inner part in the outer case in relation to the outer case from the first axial position into an axial end position such that the seal comes in contact with the sealing surface.

摘要: An engine or engine casing having an inner annular case and an outer annular case. The engine casing is formed using an additive manufacturing technique such that the inner annular case and outer annular case is formed surrounding a hollow inner annular cavity. The annular cavity includes a pin bank connecting the inner annular case and outer annular case. The pin bank improves heat transfer between the inner and outer annular case and provide structural support to the inner and outer annular case. By providing fluid flow through the annular cavity, the turbine casing can be cooled and the radius of the casing can be controlled through the regulation of fluid travelling within the annular cavity. By controlling the fluid flow though the annular cavity, the engine case may be cooled to regulate its temperature in a wide variety of operating conditions. Further, the regulation of fluid in the annular cavity allows for active clearance control of the spacing between the turbine blades or vanes and seals used in the turbine.
