Abstract: A rotary machine includes a first flange in which a first hole portion is formed, a second flange disposed to face the first flange via an abutting surface and having a second hole portion formed therein, and a stud bolt inserted into a first hole portion and a second hole portion and fastened to a female screw of the second hole portion, wherein the thickness of the second flange is larger than the thickness of the first flange.

Abstract: Flanges of half bodies provided in a compressor casing are fastened by multiple bolts and a multi-hole washer shared by two or more adjacent bolts. When F is fastening force, T is a thickness of the washer, ? is a distribution angle of the fastening force, Rb is a radius of the bolt, R is a radius of a distribution range of the fastening force on a bearing surface, A is an area of the distribution range on the surface, a is an area of a distribution range of the fastening force on a mating surface of the flange, and R=Rb+T·tan ? and A=?R2 are established, F/A is lower than yield strength of each of a flange material and a multi-hole washer material, and F/a is equal to or higher than predetermined surface pressure determined based on pressure of fluid inside the casing.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a fluid apparatus with flanges that are fastened together may include the following steps: fastening the flanges with a fastening member; introducing a fluid into an internal space of the fluid apparatus, and plastically deforming portions of the flanges that form seats for receiving the fastening member and portions of the flanges that form mating surfaces with pressure of the fluid being applied; releasing the fastening member and correcting at least the mating surfaces out of the seats and the mating surfaces; and refastening the flanges.
