  • Publication number: 20160032745
    Abstract: A turbine includes a rotor shaft having a plurality of rotating blades mounted on the rotor shaft, a bearing assembly rotatably supporting the rotor shaft, a casing forming a passage of a fluid and to include a space in which the rotating blades are disposed so that thermal energy of the fluid is converted into mechanical energy by rotation, a foundation fixedly supporting the bearing assembly, and a packing device installed in the rotor shaft for sealing between the casing and the rotor shaft and supported by the foundation. The casing comprises a connection unit extended toward the packing device and fixed to the casing so that a location of the connection unit is relatively changed with respect to the packing device. Accordingly, there is an advantage in that the leakage of a fluid is reduced because a clearance between the packing device and the rotor shaft is reduced.
