Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for joining adjacent sections of a compressor diaphragm. A splitline jumper is positioned within a recessed portion of a seal ring segment of the adjacent compressor diaphragms. The splitline jumper is sized and oriented so as to prevent axial movement of the compressor diaphragms relative to each other and also to prevent rotational movement of the seal ring relative to the diaphragm.

Abstract: A gas turbine (10) has an annular exhaust gas casing (16) which is arranged at the outlet of the turbine at a distance from the supporting foundation (22) and includes an outer shell (20a). Sagging of the exhaust gas casing (16) is avoided by supporting devices (26, 27, 28), each with a predetermined supporting direction, being arranged between the foundation (22) and the outer shell (20a) of the exhaust gas casing (16) for absorbing deformations of the exhaust gas casing (16), which are fastened by one end on the outer shell (20a) of the exhaust gas casing (16) and supported by the other end on the foundation (22), and by each of the supporting devices (26, 27, 28) having a pre-loaded spring support (30) which acts in a supporting direction.
