Abstract: A rotor disk assembly for a gas turbine maintains a sealing capability even though adjacent labyrinth arms are dislocated from each other due to torsion or similar relative movement by thermal expansion or by rotation of the rotor disks of the gas turbine. The rotor disk assembly includes a plurality of rotor disks axially assembled to each other, the plurality of rotor disks including adjacent rotor disks coupled to each other by Hirth parts. Each rotor disk includes two labyrinth arms that extend axially and bilaterally and are located on the rotor disk more radially outward than the Hirth parts, and a first labyrinth arm of the two labyrinth arms having an end surface in which a receiving groove for receiving a seal ring is formed.

Abstract: A sealing structure for a gas turbine includes a turbine rotor disk, a turbine blade coupled the turbine rotor disk, and an interstage disk interposed between adjacent turbine rotor disks. The turbine blade includes a blade circumferential surface protruding axially and extending in a circumferential direction of the turbine rotor disk and mutually engaging with a disk circumferential surface formed circumferentially on the turbine rotor disk. The interstage disk includes a rim portion and a groove formed in the rim portion. A plurality of static ring seals are mounted in the groove, each static ring seal facing toward the blade circumferential surface and the disk circumferential surface. The static ring are configured such that an outer circumferential surface of all the static ring seals contact the blade circumferential surface and the outer circumferential surface of at least one of the static ring seals does not contact the disk circumferential surface.

Abstract: A turbine, a gas turbine including the same, and a method of assembling and disassembling the same, capable of ensuring stable sealing performance as well as facilitating assembly and disassembly are provided. The turbine may include a rotor disk having a lower hook, a plurality of turbine blades installed on an outer peripheral surface of the rotor disk, each of the turbine blades having a blade hook located above the lower hook, and a retainer sealing a cooling passage defined between the turbine blade and the rotor disk and supported by the blade hook and the lower hook.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a gas turbine which includes a cooling system provided with cooling air supply paths bypassed through an outside casing and, more specifically, to a gas turbine including a cooling system and a cooling method, wherein, in order to supply cooling air to a plurality of turbine blades and other devices provided to the inside of the gas turbine, cooling air supply paths are not provided to the rotor center shaft of the gas turbine but provided around the outer casing of the gas turbine so as to achieve the increased effect in the aerodynamic efficiency of the compressor and the turbine. According to the above structure and method, it may be possible to provide the cooling air supply paths not to the rotor center shaft of the gas turbine but around the outer casing of the gas turbine, thereby finally achieving the increased effect in the aerodynamic efficiency of the compressor and the turbine.
