  • Patent number: 10883381
    Abstract: A ventilation flow path for guiding a compressed gas flowing between two blade rows adjacent in an axial direction to an interior of a compressor rotor shaft is formed in the compressor rotor shaft. The ventilation flow path has an introduction part, a plurality of branch parts, and a collection part. The introduction part guides the compressed gas flowing between the two blade rows into the compressor rotor shaft. The plurality of branch parts branch out from the introduction part, and are formed in mutually different positions in the axial direction. The collection part is connected to each of the plurality of branch parts. The compressed gas flows into the collection part after passing through the plurality of branch parts, and then, the compressed gas that has flowed in flows outside through the collection part.

  • Patent number: 10876405
    Abstract: A removal device includes a base, a push rod, a rod-moving mechanism and a rod guide. The base is restrained immovably in a first direction. The push rod can protrude from a front surface of the base toward a front side. The rod-moving mechanism is installed on the base. The rod-moving mechanism moves the push rod toward the front side. The rod guide is attached to the base. The rod guide guides movement of the push rod by the rod-moving mechanism in a second direction that forms an acute angle with respect to the first direction.

  • Patent number: 10859258
    Abstract: A spray nozzle and a deaerator each include an external cylinder provided with a plurality of jetting outlets on an outer circumference portion thereof, an inner cylinder that is supported inside the external cylinder so as to be movable in an axial center direction and is provided with a plurality of first communication holes capable of communicating with the jetting outlets, and an open-close valve that includes a shaft coupled to the inner cylinder and a valve body provided at a distal end portion of the shaft and capable of opening and closing a distal opening of the external cylinder. The spray nozzle and the deaerator thus structured provide improved performance by preventing an increase in pressure loss occurring regardless of a jet flow amount.

  • Patent number: 10858996
    Abstract: A gas turbine startup method and device wherein low-pressure, medium-pressure, and high-pressure air bleed flow paths supply compressed air bled from low-pressure, medium-pressure, and high-pressure air bleed chambers, respectively, of a compressor as cooling air to a turbine. Low-pressure, medium-pressure, and high-pressure exhaust flow paths discharge the compressed air in the low-pressure, medium-pressure, and high-pressure air bleed flow paths, respectively to the turbine exhaust system, and the low-pressure, the medium-pressure, and the high-pressure exhaust flow paths are provided respectively with a low-pressure exhaust valve, a medium-pressure exhaust valve, and a high-pressure exhaust valve. When the gas turbine starts up, the high-pressure exhaust valve is opened before the startup state of the gas turbine reaches a region in which rotation stall occurs.
