Abstract: A blade arrangement on a wall of a fluid flow path of a turbomachine includes a locating channel disposed in the wall and having undercut flanks. A plurality of blades each having a blade-side root section corresponding to the undercut flanks. A plurality of intermediate filling pieces correspond to the undercut flanks and separate each of the blade-side root sections. The plurality of blade-side root sections and intermediate filling pieces are seated in a form-fitting manner and fixed in a force-locking manner in the locating channel. The plurality of intermediate filling pieces fill out the locating channel so as to form a gas flow-side surface essentially free of a disturbing contour between the blade-side root sections. Each of the plurality of intermediate filling pieces includes a threaded hole disposed essentially perpendicular to a base of the channel. A screw is disposed in the threaded hole.

Abstract: A hot gas duct, such as a combustion casing in a gas turbine engine, includes a duct splitter held within the hot gas duct in at least three, preferably four, locations spaced around a peripheral edge of the duct splitter. At least one, preferably two, of the holding locations each comprise a generally cylindrical mounting that projects through a wall of the hot gas duct to engage an edge portion of the duct splitter by means of a slot formed in a circular face of the mounting. Mutually contacting surfaces of the slot and the duct splitter comprise hard face coatings to combat wear due to vibration and differential thermal expansion and contraction. The mountings have cooling holes that penetrate the mounting, so that coolant can flow through the mountings and into the interior of the hot gas duct to cool the mountings and the hard face coatings.

Abstract: In an injection device for the ON-LINE wet cleaning of compressor, the liquid cleaning agent is injected via a nozzle into the flow passage upstream of the compressor. The nozzle is a molecular atomizer which is mounted in the casing wall of the compressor in such a way that it can be adjusted in a three-dimensional manner in a ball-and-socket joint and can be maintained, adjusted or even exchanged during the operation of the machine.
