Abstract: A device for heating a cylindrical component of given diameter is disclosed. The device includes at least two heaters each delivering a stream of hot gas and emerging in an annular chamber. The inside diameter of the annular chamber is slightly greater than the diameter of the cylindrical component. The device may be used for heating a metal journal in which a bearing ring for an inter-shaft bearing in a double-body turbomachine is mounted.

Abstract: A method of assembly of a turbomachine that includes a first module and a second module with a second shaft assembled by a bearing, the bearing including an outer ring shrink-fitted inside a journal integral with the first module and an inner ring integral with the second shaft. The second module is assembled on the first module by engagement of the second shaft, with the inner ring, inside the journal. The method includes a step of inserting the second module in the first module up to a determined distance such that the first and second modules are only partially assembled. The second shaft is centered with respect to the journal, the centering being controlled on the basis of measuring distance deviations with respect to a reference on the journal. The journal is expanded by heating its outer surface. After the step of expanding, the second module is displaced inside the first module so as to complete the assembly. This displacement step is started based on a predetermined temperature.
