Abstract: A rotor blade of an axial compressor includes: a blade root; and a blade leaf. The blade leaf has: a flow inlet edge, a flow outlet edge, a pressure side extending between the flow inlet edge and the flow outlet edge and a suction side extending between the flow inlet edge and the flow outlet edge, which together define a blade profile of the blade leaf in Cartesian coordinate values x, y and z such that first and second profile coordinates, or the coordinates x and y when joining via continuous arcs, each describe a smooth profile section on a radial section height along a third profile coordinate, or the coordinate value z, and the joining of the radial profile sections with a smoothing function describe the blade profile of the blade leaf.

Abstract: A compressor arrangement has a common shaft, an axial compressor having at least a single-stage, and a radial compressor having at least single-stage. Assemblies of the, or each, axial compressor stage on the rotor side and assemblies of the, or each, radial compressor stage on the rotor side are attached to a common shaft (4). A ratio between a maximum diameter of the shaft (4) in the region of the axial compressor (2) and a minimum radial impeller seat diameter of the shaft (4) in the region of the radial compressor (3) is between 1.5 and 3.0.

Abstract: A moving turbine blade includes a blade profile with inner cooling which extends out from a blade platform adjoined by a blade foot, the blade foot engaging with a turbine disk and having a radial cross-section with an area whose width increases towards the blade platform. A moving turbine blade of this type is configured in such a way as to enable the moving blade profile to be lengthened. To this end, the blade foot has a hollowed-out section which opens out in the direction facing away from the platform side and which has a widened cross section in the area of the blade foot whose width increases.

Abstract: A component can be subjected to hot gas. At least one duct is provided which can be subjected to a cooling fluid. The duct is bounded by two first walls opposite to one another. The walls include turbulators with the same direction of inclination. In order to avoid constrictions, the turbulators of the first wall have a different angle of inclination relative to a flow direction of the cooling fluid to the turbulators of the second wall.

Abstract: A method is for producing a turbine blade, in particular, a gas turbine blade, comprising a head, a foot, and a blade section, in addition to an internal canalization system, including individual channels through which coolant gas can pass along a flow path within the turbine blade. The turbine blade also includes a throttle device which influences the passage of the coolant gas without impairing the flow of the coolant gas in the intake area. The throttle device is located in the rear section of the flow path, and is positioned upstream of the exit openings.

Abstract: The turbine blade has an internal space through which a coolant fluid is guided and in which stiffening ribs are formed to reinforce and support the external walls. Coolant screens that reduce the cooling of the stiffening ribs, are arranged in front of the stiffening ribs in order to reduce thermal stresses. The turbine blade is preferably a gas turbine blade.
