  • Patent number: 5620308
    Abstract: A heavy-duty gas turbine includes a compressor; a combustion liner; a turbine blade in a single stage or multi-stages; and a turbine nozzle provided in correspondence to the turbine blade. The turbine blade has a dovetail secured to a turbine disk and has an overall length of not less than 180 mm, and it is made of a single-crystal Ni-base alloy whose .gamma. phase is a single crystal. Operating gas temperature is not less than 1400.degree. C., and metal temperature of a first blade is not less than 1000.degree. C. under working stress.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 7, 1995
    Date of Patent: April 15, 1997
    Assignees: Hitachi, Ltd., Tohoku Electric Power Co., Inc.

  • Patent number: 5611670
    Abstract: A gas-turbine moving blade made of a Ni-base superalloy containing less grain boundary strengthening elements, in which a blade portion is formed of a single crystal and the rest is formed of columnar crystals, and a gas turbine including the moving blade. A thermal efficiency of the gas turbine can be improved to 35% or more, and a thermal efficiency of complex power generation with a steam turbine can be improved to 45% or more.
