Abstract: A rotating shaft lifting jig is inserted between a rotating shaft of a rotary machine and a bearing stand surrounding the outer periphery of at least a lower part of the rotating shaft. The jig for lifting the rotating shaft includes: a pedestal which is supported on an inner peripheral surface of the bearing stand; and a jack part which is disposed between the pedestal and the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft and extends/contracts in the radial direction. The radial dimension of the pedestal is smaller than a radial clearance between the rotating shaft and the bearing stand. A rotor receiver having a cylindrical surface conforming to the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft is provided between the jack part and the rotating shaft. The rotor receiver is provided with a plurality of support members in directions different from the direction of the jack part.

Abstract: A two-shaft gas turbine includes a high-pressure turbine having an annular gas-passage outlet, a low-pressure turbine having an annular gas-passage inlet, an annular intermediate duct that connects the gas-passage outlet to the gas-passage inlet, a bearing that supports a rotor of the high-pressure turbine and that is attached to a bearing case, and a plurality of struts that support the bearing case. The struts are arranged radially along the circumference of the bearing case so as to extend though the intermediate duct in a space between an outer peripheral surface of the bearing case and an inner peripheral surface of a casing wall that surrounds the intermediate duct. The intermediate duct has strut covers through which the struts extend and which function as first-stage stator blades for the low-pressure turbine.

Abstract: A gas turbine includes a cooling-air transfer system. The cooing-air transfer system extracts part of air discharged from a compressor to a chamber, and transfers the part of air as cooling air to a rotor disk. The cooling-air transfer system includes a plurality of tubular nozzles independently arranged in a circle inside the chamber to surround a rotor, and a seal disk having seal-disk cooling conduits arranged in a circle around the axis of the rotor so as to receive cooling air ejected from the tubular nozzles. The cooling-air transfer system swirls the cooling air ejected from the tubular nozzles.

Abstract: A combustor for a gas turbine has an arrangement to form a layer of cooling-air on an inner surface of a liner of a combustion chamber. This layer of the cooling air extends from a fuel nozzle block of the combustor toward a downstream side with respect to the liner.

Abstract: In a tail tube seal structure of gas turbine, a U-shaped groove is provided at one side of a tail tube seal where a flange of a tail tube outlet is fitted, and a pi-shaped groove is provided at other side of the tail tube seal where a gas pass side flange end is fitted, thereby composing the seal of the connection area. Inclined cooling holes are drilled in the tail tube seal in addition to the cooling holes existing conventionally. The cooling air flows in from the inclined holes and cools the gas pass side of the groove due to the film effect. Therefore, the difference in thermal expansion between the groove and flange end is decreased, the wear of this area is decreased, and the reliability of the seal is enhanced.

Abstract: A ring (100) for forming a cooling-air layer is attached to the liner (11) of a combustion chamber, to supply cooling air fed from a compressor from a cooling-air supply hole (41). During the operation of a gas turbine, the cooling air is allowed to flow from a gap (51) formed between the ring (100) and the inner surface of the liner (11) of the combustion chamber, to form the cooling-air layer on the inner surface of the liner (11) of the combustion chamber.

Abstract: In a combined cycle power generation plant in which a gas turbine is cooled by steam, pressure loss of the cooling steam is prevented from increasing and the cooling steam is recovered efficiently. The gas turbine's stationary blade or moving blade is provided with a plurality of mutually independent passages which are arranged in parallel, whereby pressure loss of the cooling steam can be reduced.

Abstract: In gas turbine split rings, end faces having bent surfaces are formed in flanges. Adjoining split rings are coupled together with a groove therebetween to form a cylindrical split ring. Notches are formed in the flanges. These notches are sealed by inserting a seal plate into the notches of adjoining split rings. A hole for passing cooling air is drilled obliquely in the flange. Cooling air is allowed to flow out along the direction of rotation (of the turbine). This cooling air cools the outlet of the groove due to the effect of film cooling. Because of such cooling, high temperature gas is prevented from staying in this area, cooling effect is enhanced, and hence burning of the end portions can be prevented.

Abstract: The present invention provides a stationary blade of integrated segment construction, in which a thermal barrier coating can be applied to the whole blade surface and excessive stress can be avoided in a shroud. A plate seat connector is provided at each end face portion of an inside shroud and an outside shroud attached to outside and inside ends of gas turbine stationary blade. Several stationary blades are integrated by joining the plate seat connectors of the adjacent shrouds by means of bolts and nuts to provide a stationary blade of integrated segment construction.

Abstract: A gas turbine stationary blade unit in which two stationary blades are formed in a single segment by divided shrouds functions to lessen the occurrence of cracks. Two stationary blades 1a, 1b are fixed to an outer shroud and an inner shroud, respectively. Each shroud is divided into two sections 2a, 2b and 3a, 3b. Flanges 4a, 4b are provided to connect the section together by bolts via boltholes 7. Likewise, flanges 5a, 5b are provided to form a similar connection or joint. If the two stationary blades 1a, 1b are fixed in a single segment by the shrouds which are not divided, a restraining force becomes larger, local stress occurs due to thermal stress and the frequency of crack occurrence increases. However, since the shrouds are divided respectively into two parts and jointed together by bolts, the crack occurrence is lessened. Also, pinholes are provided in opposing faces at the divided portion of the shrouds.

Abstract: In a cooling air passage in a gas turbine stationary blade shroud a groove at a shroud end face is formed to extend along the shroud end face. An open portion of the groove is covered by a plug so as to form a cooling air passage. A cooling air passage in which the work accuracy is remarkably enhanced can thus be very easily worked. Preferably the cooling air passage is formed by electric discharge machining (EDM). The same process can be used to form an open portion of the groove, as well as any desired turbulators. The open portion of the groove is closed by a plug which is brazed or welded in place.
