Abstract: A combustor arrangement, the combustor arrangement being annular and being arranged about an axis, the axis defining an axial direction, having an annular housing to house a plurality of burners and an annular combustion chamber, the burners arranged circumferentially about the axis inside the annular housing, wherein an annular space is defined between the housing, the burners and the annular combustion chamber, the annular space arranged to guide a compressed fluid. A plurality of stiffening plates, each arranged within the annular housing, wherein two adjacent ones of the burners are separated by one of the stiffening plates. A combustor separating wall arrangement separates the annular space from the annular combustion chamber provides openings for the burners. The stiffening plates are arranged angled and connected to the combustor separating wall arrangement and two boundary walls of the housing, and further plates extend into the annular space.

Abstract: A rotor for an axial flow turbomachine is provided, having a number of a plurality of disc-shaped or drum-shaped rotor components and at least one pin-shaped tie-rod extending through the rotor components, wherein a counter-bearing is screwed onto each of the projecting ends of the tie-rod for axially bracing the rotor components arranged therebetween. The tie-rod has at least two axially adjacent tie-rod elements which are each connected to one another in a detachable manner by connector. Elastic stretching characteristics of the two tie-rod elements are matched to each other such that, with the rotor components being clamped between the two counter-bearings, a clamping of the counter-bearing and the connection element and the rotor components arranged therebetween is at least partially released.

Abstract: A method for assembling and disassembling a rotor having a number of rotor components of an axial flow turbomachine and such a rotor is provided. The rotor has a number of a plurality of disc-shaped or drum-shaped rotor components and at least one pin-shaped tie-rod extending through the rotor components, wherein a counter-bearing is screwed onto each of the projecting ends of said tie-rod for axially bracing the rotor components arranged therebetween. In order to achieve shorter service intervals, a connector is screwed onto the tie-rod between both counter-bearings, wherein, after the release of one of the two counter-bearings, the rotor components arranged between the connector and the other of the two counter-bearings are braced with each other by the connector.
