Gas turbine and method for maintaining and inspecting the same
View Patent ↗A gas turbine includes a gas turbine body in which a rotor is rotated with the energy of combustion gas produced by combustion of fuel to take out rotational energy from the rotor, an inlet casing that is attached to the gas turbine body and that guides the air to a compressor section compressing the air, an air intake chamber that is connected to the inlet casing and that guides the air taken in from the atmosphere to the gas turbine body, and a notch so formed in the air intake chamber as to cover the entire range where the rotor passes or exists when the rotor is moved.
1. A gas turbine comprising:
a gas turbine body in which a rotating body is rotated with energy of combustion gas produced by combustion of fuel to take out rotational energy from the rotating body;
an air intake member that is attached to the gas turbine body and that guides the air to a compressor section compressing the air; and
an air intake chamber that guides the air to the compressor section via the air intake member, wherein
the air intake chamber includes a notch being formed on a wall surface thereof,
the air intake chamber has an opening so formed in the air intake chamber as to cover an entire range where the rotating body passes or exits when the rotating body is moved, and
the gas turbine further comprises a cover that is detachably provided to the opening to cover the opening formed in the air intake chamber.
2. The gas turbine according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a generator input shaft that is detachably and directly connected to the rotating body; and
a generator that generates electric power based on rotation of the generator input shaft.
3. The gas turbine according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a generator input shaft that is detachably connected to the rotating body through an intermediate shaft; and
a generator that generates electric power based on rotation of the generator input shaft.
4. The gas turbine according to claim 3 , wherein the intermediate shaft is formed with a hole.
5. A method for maintaining and inspecting a gas turbine configured to include a gas turbine body in which a rotating body is rotated with energy of combustion gas produced by combustion of fuel to take out rotational energy from the rotating body, an air intake chamber that is configured to prevent interference with the rotating body when the rotating body is moved and that is connected to the air intake member and guides the air taken in from atmosphere to the compressor section, an air intake member that is detachably connected to the air intake chamber and that guides the air to the compressor section compressing the air, an opening so formed in the air intake chamber as to cover an entire range where the rotating body passes or exists when the rotating body is moved, a generator input shaft that is detachably connected to the rotating body and to which rotation of the rotating body is transmitted, a generator that generates electric power based on rotation of the generator input shaft, and a cover that is detachably provided to the opening to cover the opening, the method comprising:
removing the cover;
removing the air intake member from the air intake chamber;
removing the generator input shaft from the rotating body; and
moving the rotating body in a direction away from a ground on which the gas turbine is placed.
6. The gas turbine according claim 1 , wherein the wall surface is located on a side from the air intake chamber opening to the air duct.
7. A gas turbine comprising:
a gas turbine body in which a rotating body is rotated with energy of combustion gas produced by combustion of fuel to take out rotational energy from the rotating body;
an air intake member that is attached to the gas turbine body and that guides the air to a compressor section compressing the air; and
an air intake chamber that is configured to prevent interference with the rotating body when the rotating body is moved and that is connected to the air intake member and guides the air taken in from atmosphere to the compressor section,
wherein the air intake chamber has an opening so formed in the air intake chamber as to cover an entire range where the rotating body passes or exits when the rotating body is moved, and
wherein the gas turbine further comprises a cover that is detachably provided to the opening to cover the opening formed in the air intake chamber.
