Turbine stator for aircraft turbine engine including a vibration damping device
View Patent ↗A turbine stator for an aircraft turbine engine is disclosed. The turbine stator includes a stator wall supporting a high pressure air injector fixed on the downstream side, and an annular abradable element support. The lower radial end of the element support is fixed to the high pressure air injector and the upper radial end of the element support is fixed to the stator wall, such that they jointly delimit a cavity under pressure. The turbine stator also includes at least one vibration damping device located in the cavity under pressure. The vibration damping device is in contact with each of the two elements taken among the stator wall and the annular support.
1. A turbine stator for an aircraft turbine engine, comprising:
a stator wall supporting a high pressure air injector fixed on the downstream side;
an annular abradable element support designed to be contacted by a sealing labyrinth, the lower radial end of said support arranged on the downstream side of said stator wall being fixed to said high pressure air injector and its upper radial end being fixed to said stator wall, such that said annular support, said stator wall and said high pressure air injector jointly delimit a cavity under pressure,
at least one vibration damping device located in said cavity under pressure, said vibration damping device being in contact with each of the two elements taken among said stator wall and said abradable annular element support,
wherein said vibration damping device is in the form of a plate located in said cavity under pressure and with a first end fixed onto one of the two elements among said stator wall and said annular abradable element support, and a second free end, held in contact with the other of said two elements.
2. A turbine stator according to claim 1 , wherein said plate is an annular vibration damping plate centered on a longitudinal axis of the stator and located in said cavity under pressure, said first and second ends to corresponding to annular ends of said plate.
3. A turbine stator according to claim 2 , wherein said plate is perforated to allow air circulation through said plate it.
4. A turbine stator according to claim 2 , wherein said second end held in contact with said other of the two elements is shaped so has to have lobes bearing on said other of the two elements, and indentations, along a circumferential direction.
5. A turbine stator according to claim 2 , wherein said plate has a curved half cross-section.
6. A turbine stator according to claim 5 , a half cross-section of said plate has a general shape of a U or C shape.
7. A turbine stator according to claim 2 , wherein said turbine stator is designed such that in a half cross-section, a contact force between the second end and said other of the two elements is locally approximately orthogonal to a surface of said plate.
8. A turbine for an aircraft turbine engine comprising a stator according to claim 1 .
9. An aircraft turbine engine comprising a turbine according to claim 8 .
