Abstract: The present invention is to reduce the load on a control device by reliably classifying vibration modes of a rotor, thereby facilitating stabilization design of a magnetic bearing. The present invention includes: magnetic bearings including electromagnets provided at one end and the other end of a rotor to contactlessly support the one end and the other end of the rotor by the magnetic attraction forces of the electromagnets; and displacement sensors that measure an inclination at the one end of the rotor and an inclination at the other end of the rotor, in which the magnetic attraction forces of the electromagnets are controlled based on the inclinations measured by the displacement sensors.

Abstract: In a centrifugal compressor, for the purpose of preventing the positions of a diaphragm and a head flange in a radial direction from moving with respect to a casing, preventing the unstable vibration of the rotor and enabling an efficient and stable operation even on high-pressure conditions, there is provided a barrel-shaped centrifugal compressor including a casing, a diaphragm located in the casing to define a flow channel, and a head flange attached to the end of the casing by a shear key, wherein in the inner peripheral surface of the casing and the outer peripheral surface of abutment portions of the diaphragm and the head flange in which they are abutted on the inner peripheral surface of the casing, sliding key grooves which are vertical to the surfaces are provided at least two portions in a peripheral direction, and sliding keys are provided in the key grooves.

Abstract: A turbomachinery includes a labyrinth seal (2) to prevent unstable vibration of a rotor formed by dividing the seal into segments (7) in a circumferential direction and combining the segments (7) whose comb teeth (5) differ in height. The labyrinth seal (2) preferably includes two kinds of segments (7) whose comb teeth (5) differ in height for each kind of segment, and the segments (7a) of the greater comb tooth height are arranged in a certain reference direction on a cross section right-angled to a rotational axis, and in a direction opposite to the reference direction, and the segments (7b) of the smaller comb tooth height are arranged in a direction right-angled to the reference direction, and in a direction opposite to that right-angled to the reference direction.

Abstract: A labyrinth seal is provided that can suppress the occurrence of an unequal pressure pattern in the seal, suppress unstable vibration of a rotating shaft and ensure sealing performance. The labyrinth seal includes a seal ring 13 and a plurality of seal fins 11. Ring-like cavities 12 are defined on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 2 with the seal ring 13 and the seal fins 11. The ring-like cavities 12 suppress a leakage flow LS moving along the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 2. Void portions 14 are each provided on the outer circumferential side of the cavity 12 in the seal ring 13 so as to extend in the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft 2 and communicate with the cavity 12 at circumferential intervals to temporarily relieve a leakage flow from inside the cavity in the circumferential direction.

A turbomachinery according to this invention includes a labyrinth seal 2 formed by dividing the seal into segments 7 in a circumferential direction and combining the segments 7 whose comb teeth 5 differ in height. The labyrinth seal 2 preferably includes two kinds of segments 7 whose comb teeth 5 differ in height for each kind of segment, and the segments 7a of the greater comb tooth height are arranged in a certain reference direction on a cross section right-angled to a rotational axis, and in a direction opposite to the reference direction, and the segments 7b of the smaller comb tool height are arranged in a direction right-angled to the reference direction, and in a direction opposite to that right-angled to the reference direction.

Abstract: The present invention provides a centrifugal compressor that inhibits possible leakage while reducing a destabilizing fluid force generated in a seal to prevent the possible instable vibration of a rotor. The centrifugal compressor includes a casing, a rotor rotatably installed in the casing and having an impeller, and seals provided in the clearance between the casing and the rotor to prevent a fluid from leaking through the clearance from a high pressure side to a low pressure side. The rotor rotates to compress gas. For example, the balance piston seal is composed of a damper seal with a plurality of holes and a labyrinth seal with an annular parallel groove; the damper seal and the labyrinth seal are continuously provided. The damper seal is disposed on the high pressure side in a leakage flow direction. The labyrinth seal is disposed on the low pressure side in the leakage flow direction.
