Abstract: A method for supplying an excitation current to an excitation winding of a rotor of a three-phase generator of a system for producing a three-phase alternating voltage to be fed into a power network. A pulsed excitation current is supplied to the excitation winding if a rotational frequency of the rotor deviates from a network frequency of the power network.

Abstract: A three-phase generator for an installation for generating a three-phase alternating voltage, has a two-pole rotor having two magnetic poles, wherein the magnetic poles are arranged irregularly and offset to one another on the periphery with respect to a rotor rotational axis of the rotor

Abstract: Disclosed is a hot-gas-conducting housing element for a hot-gas-conducting housing of a gas turbine system encompassing a compressor, a turbine, and a turbine rotor. The hot gas-conducting housing element is embodied so as to surround a protective shaft jacket placed around the turbine rotor and conduct a hot gas to the turbine. The hot gas-conducting housing element comprises: — at least one hot gas inlet; — an opening facing the turbine; — a section for conducting the hot gas from the at least one hot gas inlet to the opening facing the turbine, said conducting section being provided with an inner housing hub which is configured so as to surround the protective surface facing the protective shaft jacket. Said rib extends in the circumferential direction, protrudes from the circumferential surface, and is disposed in the zone of the circumferential surface bordering the opening that faces the turbine. The rib and/or the inner housing hub is/are fitted with cooling fluid ducts.

Abstract: A combustion chamber wall in a combustion chamber is proposed, The chamber wall has a support structure with a number of heat shield which are attached to the support structure with the aid of a fastening unit. The fastening unit encompasses a spring device which is fixedly connected to the support structure and is composed at least of a spring that is mounted in a jacket. The spring is secured against falling out on the side facing away from the combustion chamber by a first removable retainer. The interior of the spring device is provided with an axial hole for accommodating the fastening unit. The spring is secured against falling out on the side facing the combustion chamber by a second removable retainer. The spring device can be dismounted on the side facing the combustion chamber.

Abstract: A thermal shielding brick is useable for lining a combustion chamber wall. The thermal shielding brick has a hot side, which can be exposed to a hot medium a wall side located opposite the hot side, and a peripheral side that is joined to the hot side and to the wall side. A damping element is placed on the peripheral side and effectively prevents fragments from detaching from the thermal shielding brick if broken. A combustion chamber having an inner combustion chamber lining, includes the thermal shielding bricks. Further, a gas turbine, includes the combustion chamber.

Abstract: Disclosed is a lining for inner walls of combustion chambers having essentially plate-shaped shielding elements arranged on the inner walls so as to leave a gap. To introduce efficient sealing off against the penetration of hot gases, porous flow barriers capable of being inserted into the gap between adjacent shielding elements are used. The flow barriers are effective in reducing the air demand. The reduction in the air demand has a positive effect on the stability of the burner flames, the effectiveness of the machine and the pollutant emissions and makes it possible to have a further increase in performance, while adhering to maximum given material temperatures.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat-shield brick, in particular for lining a combustion chamber wall, comprising a hot side that can be exposed to a hot medium, a wall side that lies opposite said hot side and a peripheral side that lies adjacent to the hot side and the wall side and that has peripheral lateral face. A tensioning element, pre-stressed in the peripheral direction is provided on the peripheral side, whereby a compressive stress generated perpendicularly to the peripheral lateral face. The invention also relates to a combustion chamber comprising a combustion chamber lining, which has heat-shield bricks of this type and to a gas turbine comprising a combustion chamber.
