Abstract: A method for starting up a web-fed printing press is disclosed. In an embodiment, the method includes: a) a first start-up sequence is executed while using predetermined preset parameters that are specific to the printing press and/or the print job for the color register adjustment, cut-off compensator control and the ink density control; b) the web-fed printing press is subsequently stopped, where copies printed during the first start-up sequence are evaluated with respect to the color register, the cut-off compensator and the ink density, and where the preset parameters are adjusted as a function of this evaluation while the printing press is stopped; c) following this, a second start-up sequence is executed, where the preset parameters that are adjusted during the standstill are not used for printing until defined printing press speeds are reached and/or exceeded.

Abstract: A suspension arrangement for the casing shroud segments of the high-pressure turbine of a jet engine with inclination or graduation of the rotor blade tips (4) includes spaced apart attaching hooks (11) formed onto the casing shroud segments (2) which engage an axial retaining groove (13) on the turbine casing (1) on the upstream side and which are axially retained in the downstream direction by a retaining ring (14) arranged in a retaining ring groove (15) formed onto the turbine casing. In the retaining ring groove (15), assembly pockets (19) are provided on the downstream side, with the assembly pockets (19) agreeing with the distance and dimensioning of the attaching hooks (11), so that—with the rotor installed—axial travel (s2) of the casing shroud segments (2) is reduced and handling clearance is increased, when the casing shroud segments (2) are installed.

Abstract: With a door seal for a gas turbine engine, a gap (3) existing between an axially symmetrical component (1) and an assembly formed by several segments (2) is sealed by seal doors (11), which are held via retaining holes (10) at retaining bolts (9) on one of the components, the seal doors (11) being pressed against sealing edges (5, 7) of the two components, with the sealing edges (5, 7) being disposed at a certain distance from each other. The retaining bolts and holes are located outside the pressure surface (A) of the seal doors, formed between the two sealing edges, thus preventing cooling air losses via a gap remaining between the retaining bolts and bores.

Abstract: On a two or multi-stage turbine, expansion rings are provided in all stages at the sides of the rotors for passive, continuous running gap control whose thermal expansion and contraction behavior corresponds to that of the rotors and which are connected to radially moveable upstream and downstream stator vanes (5, 7). The downstream stator vanes are assembled to the upstream stator vanes via a bridge (16; 17, 18) which is axially and circumferentially fixed and located flexibly in the radial direction on the outer casing (10) of the turbine. The stator vanes (6) arranged between the rotor disks are integrally connected to the bridge or, as separate components, held axially and circumferentially on the bridge to take up rolling and tilting moments.

Abstract: A passive internal control system for rotor blade tip clearance of a high-pressure turbine is based on inner rings that expand in a radial direction under the influence of heat and radially adjust the clearance delimited by liner segments (9) on the casing side. It comprises a radially expandable U-shaped downstream inner ring (10) mounted to inner platforms (7b) of guide vanes (7) on a side where the rotor does not have a static bearing, said ring providing expansion compensation in the axial and peripheral directions and forming a torsion box (8) with struts (13, 14) that absorbs rolling and tilting moments.

Abstract: On an aircraft engine with a shroudless rotor wheel arranged in a flow duct, the flow duct includes a shroud segment (1) formed by a ceramic rubbing coating (3) which, while having good thermal conductivity, is highly-temperature resistant, attaches firmly to the metallic substrate (2) and is abradable by the tips of the rotor wheel to form a sealing gap as narrow as possible, this rubbing coating, owing to the lack of self-insulation, being coolable from a free side of the metallic substrate and, therefore, permitting for working gas temperatures occurring in high-pressure turbines and coating thicknesses sufficient for abrasion.
