Abstract: A refrigerant supplied from a refrigerant supply pipe flows into a first space, being a passage of the refrigerant, from a space between first stage and second stage rotor disks. The refrigerant supplied to the first space is guided to second, third and forth spaces through a gap between a spindle bolt and a bolt hole, during which the rotor disks are warmed up or cooled. In the second stage rotor disk, a refrigerant through hole axially penetrating this rotor disk is provided near the center thereof. The refrigerant flowing into the first space passes through the refrigerant through hole to flow into the second space, to thereby promote the convection in the first, second, third and fourth spaces and equalization of temperatures in the rotor disks.

Abstract: A rotary shaft axial elongation measuring method and device enable accurate measuring of rotary shaft axial elongation regardless of the amount of the elongation. Grooves (10, 12), arranged opposite to each other in a turned V shape along the axial direction, are provided in a rotational surface of the rotary shaft (1) whose axial elongation is to be measured. A sensor (14) is arranged opposite the rotational surface of the rotary shaft (1). The sensor (14) generates pulses upon passing of the groves (10, 12) following rotation of the rotary shaft (1). As a circumferential interval between the grooves (10, 12) differs according to the axial directional position of the rotary shaft (1), if the positions of the grooves (10, 12) at the position of the sensor (14) change due to the axial elongation, the interval of the pulses generated by the sensor (14) changes. Thus, by the change in the pulse generation interval, the axial elongation is measured.
