Turbomachine, especially gas turbine
View Patent ↗A turbomachine with at least one combustion chamber and at least one turbine which lies downstream of it. The turbine has at least one support element and a lining element connected to the support element and formed as a heat shield. A gap sealed by means of a seal, is formed between the at least one combustion chamber and the turbine, an exchangeable insert is arranged in the gap on the end face on the support element and protects at least the support element against hot gases which penetrate into the gap, and against oxidation which is associated with it.
1. A turbomachine comprising:
at least one combustion chamber;
at least one turbine lying downstream to the combustion chamber, a gap disposed between the at least one combustion chamber and the at least one turbine;
a support element having an end face facing the gap;
a lining element connected to the support element and forming a heat shield over the support element;
an exchangeable insert disposed in the gap, the exchangeable insert covering the end face of the support element so as to be exposed to hot gases and the exchangeable insert abutting the lining element so as to protect the support element against the hot gases;
a seal retained on the exchangeable insert and configured to seal the gap; and,
wherein the exchangeable insert is more oxidation-resistant than the support element.
2. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the exchangeable insert includes a plurality of circle segments.
3. The turbomachine as recited in claim 2 , wherein the plurality of circle segments includes two semicircular rings.
4. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the exchangeable insert engages in an undercut on the support element side.
5. The turbornachine as recited in claim 1 , further comprising at least one fastening device and wherein the exchangeable insert is retained on the end face of the support element using the least one fastening device.
6. The turbomachinc as recited in claim 1 , wherein the exchangeable insert has at least one of a wear-resistant coating and a temperature-resistant coating.
7. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the at least one combustion chamber includes a first combustion chamber and a second combustion chamber and wherein the gap is disposed between the turbine and at least one of the first combustion chamber and the second combustion chamber.
8. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the exchangeable insert carries the seal.
9. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the seal is a membrane seal.
10. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the seal includes a plurality of circle segments.
11. The turbomachine as recited in claim 10 , wherein the plurality of circle segments includes two semicircular rings.
12. The turbomachine as recited in claim 10 , wherein the circle segments overlap in the circumferential direction.
13. The turbomachine as recited in claim 10 , wherein each circle segment is fixed on the exchangeable insert.
14. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , further comprising an axially open step on the exchangeable insert and wherein the seal is disposed in the axially open step.
15. The turbomachine as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of detachable retaining elements and wherein the seal is retained in the axially open step using the detachable retaining elements.
