Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a housing structure for a turbomachine, in particular for a gas turbine or an aircraft engine.
  • turbomachines such as gas turbines or aircraft engines
  • air is drawn along a flow channel, compressed, and combusted in a combustion chamber along with fuel, and then the combustion gases are discharged through the flow channel, thereby driving in a turbine rotors.
  • the flow channel is circumferentially surrounded by a housing structure, wherein in particular in the region of the combustion chamber and the subsequent turbine, prevail by the combustion gases very high temperatures in the flow channel, so that surrounding the flow channel housing structure must be efficiently cooled in order to achieve that the lowest possible operating temperatures are present in order to use materials with lower requirements for high-temperature properties.
  • cooling air is passed into the area of the outer housing structure in order to bring about heat dissipation.
  • insulators and heat shields are used in such housing structures to protect the outer components from excessive temperatures.
  • the solution should be easy to implement.
  • the invention is based on the consideration that through cavities in the housing structure a pressure equalization in the axial direction, ie along the flow direction of the hot gas in the flow channel can be effected by the pressure equalization corresponding gas flows are caused, such as the outflow of hot gas from the flow channel in the housing structure or the inflow of cooling air from the housing structure in the flow channel.
  • a pressure equalization in the axial direction ie along the flow direction of the hot gas in the flow channel can be effected by the pressure equalization corresponding gas flows are caused, such as the outflow of hot gas from the flow channel in the housing structure or the inflow of cooling air from the housing structure in the flow channel.
  • the present invention proposes to provide an axial seal in a corresponding cavity between an inner housing wall and an outer housing wall of a housing structure of a turbomachine, so that an axial pressure equalization is prevented as much as possible.
  • the axial sealing at least two areas are created in a cavity, which are arranged one behind the other in the axial direction.
  • the axial sealing takes place in such a way that different pressure conditions can be established in the regions which correspond to the different pressure conditions in the flow channel along the axial direction. This means, for example, that the pressure in the flow channel before a blade stage is higher than after a blade stage, so that correspondingly in a cavity in the housing structure in a region axially corresponding to the region before a blade stage, the pressure ratios are higher than in a region corresponding in position to a blade stage in its axial position ,
  • the axial seal can be arranged in an axial position in the cavity, which corresponds to the axial position between an inlet edge and a trailing edge of a blade, in particular between a first and a second sealing tip of a blade.
  • the leading edge of the blade upstream is understood as the leading edge, which therefore first comes into contact with the flowing hot gases.
  • the trailing edge is the last region of the blade at which the flow gases leave the blade again.
  • axial seals for a cavity In addition to a single axial seal for a cavity of course, several axial seals for a single cavity can be provided and a plurality of cavities with axial seals.
  • the axial sealing can be realized by a cooperating with structural components sealing element, such as a flexible, heat-resistant sealing cord, which can cooperate with appropriately provided sealing walls.
  • structural components sealing element such as a flexible, heat-resistant sealing cord, which can cooperate with appropriately provided sealing walls.
  • other suitable structural components for producing the axial seal can be provided.
  • the cavity which is provided with the axial seal, may be a cavity disposed directly on the inner housing wall, which may be separated from the outer housing wall and in particular spaced apart.
  • that cavity is provided with an axial seal, which is arranged radially inwardly on the inner housing wall.
  • the cavity may be an annular space around the flow channel circumferential cavity or a cavity which is provided only in segments around the flow channel.
  • such cavities can be provided with axial seals, which have a cooling air supply.
  • the attached figure shows in a purely schematic way a part of a housing structure according to the invention in a sectional view.
  • the partial sectional view of the attached figure by an aircraft engine shows an outer housing wall 1 and an inner housing wall 2, which annularly surround a flow channel 15, in the blades 4 and vanes 5 are arranged.
  • the inner housing wall 2 is formed by a lining with a scuffing pad 3, wherein sealing tips 6, 7, which may also be referred to as sealing fins, are arranged on the moving blade 4 in order to provide, together with the scraper pad 3, a seal which may also be referred to as "outer Air seal "is called.
  • seal carrier 8 or heat shields 9, 10 are arranged, which should ensure that the outer housing wall 1 is as low as possible temperature, so as to select the material for the outer housing wall 1 not be limited by taking into account certain operating temperatures.
  • a cavity 11 is formed, which extends along the inner housing wall 2 and which is at least separated from the outer housing wall 1 by the heat shield 10, and at least partially by the outer housing wall 1 is spaced.
  • the cavity 11 is arranged in an annular manner around the flow channel 15 and is formed substantially closed, that is, that no defined openings are provided. Nevertheless, it comes due to the conditions prevailing in the flow channel 15 conditions and by the strong temperature change between operation and non-operation of the turbomachine and consequent structural conditions to a flow of hot gas from the flow channel 15 into the cavity 11. In addition, ambient air or in the Housing structure guided cooling air also penetrate into the cavity 11. Moreover, it is conceivable that the cavity 11 is also designed to guide cooling air and has corresponding openings for the entry of cooling air.
  • a seal is provided in the cavity 11, which comprises two sealing plates 12, 13 and a sealing cord 14, wherein the axial seal 12, 13, 14 divides the cavity 11 into two areas 16, 17.
  • the axial seal with the sealing walls 12 and 13 and the sealing cord 14 is arranged in an axial position corresponding to the axial position between the first and front sealing tip 6 and the second or rear sealing tip 7, so that the first region 16 with the flow channel in front of the Blade 4 corresponds, while the second region 17 corresponds to the region of the flow channel 15 after the blade.
  • the seal 12,13,14 ensures that in the areas 16, 17 different pressure conditions can be adjusted, as in the flow channel in the area in front of the blade 4 and in the area after the blade 4. This avoids that in the cavity 11th a pressure equalization between an axially forward position and an axially rearward position may occur, which could cause exchange flows between the hot gas passage and a possible cooling air flow.
  • the amount of hot gas that flows from the flow channel into the housing structure thus also reducing losses of cooling air, so that the efficiency of the machine is increased, and the temperatures in the housing structure can be lowered, or less cooling air is needed.
