Temperature measurement in a gas turbine
View Patent ↗A gas turbine according to the invention includes a seal housing in which a leaf-shaped seal is provided and a detection end space, a gas introduction path, and a gas discharge path are also formed. The detection end space is formed at a position on the outside in a radial direction from a leaf-shaped seal, and the gas introduction path has an introduction port formed at a position further on the downstream side than the leaf-shaped seal and also has a radially extending portion extending toward the outside in the radial direction from the introduction port and an axially extending portion extending in the direction of an axis from an end portion of the radially extending portion and reaching the detection end space.
1. A gas turbine comprising:
a rotor that rotates around an axis of rotation;
a casing that covers the rotor so as to be rotatable; and
a vane fixed to the casing,
wherein the rotor has a rotor disk centered on the axis of rotation and a plurality of turbine blades fixed to the rotor disk and arranged in a circumferential direction with respect to the axis of rotation, in each of a plurality of stages arranged in an axial direction in which the axis of rotation extends, and a plurality of the vanes are disposed side by side in the circumferential direction on the upstream side of the plurality of turbine blades in each of the plurality of stages,
an upstream-side rim portion protruding to the upstream side and a downstream-side rim portion protruding to the downstream side are formed on the rotor disk of each of the plurality of stages,
an annular seal housing is fixed to the inside of the vane in a radial direction of the rotor,
an upstream-side seal member facing the downstream-side rim portion on the upstream side with respect to the annular seal housing is provided in the annular seal housing, and a detection end space in which a temperature detection end of a thermometer is accommodated, a gas introduction path which leads gas in a disk cavity between the annular seal housing and the upstream-side rim portion on the downstream side with respect to the annular seal housing and the downstream-side rim portion to the detection end space, and a gas discharge path that discharges gas, which has reached the detection end space, further to the downstream side than an introduction port of the gas introduction path are also formed in the annular seal housing,
the detection end space is formed at a radially outer position with respect to the upstream-side seal member, and
the introduction port of the gas introduction path is formed at a position further on the downstream side than the upstream-side seal member, and the gas introduction path has a radially extending portion which extends toward the outside in the radial direction from the introduction port, and an axially extending portion which extends from an outer end portion of the radially extending portion to the upstream side along the axis of rotation and reaches the detection end space.
2. The gas turbine according to claim 1 , wherein a downstream-side seal member facing the upstream-side rim portion and provided on the downstream side of the annular seal housing , and
the introduction port of the gas introduction path is formed at a position further on the upstream side than the downstream-side seal member.
3. The gas turbine according to claim 1 , wherein the upstream-side seal member is one of a brush seal and a leaf-shaped seal.
4. The gas turbine according to claim 1 , wherein the gas discharge path extends from the detection end space to the downstream side along the axis of rotation.
5. The gas turbine according to claim 4 , wherein a gas path forming hole which extends from the detection end space to the downstream side along the axis of rotation and in which a portion of an internal space forms the axially extending portion of the gas introduction path and the gas discharge path is formed in the annular seal housing , and
a partition member partitioning the internal space into the axially extending portion of the gas introduction path and the gas discharge path, where the partition member is inserted and mounted in the gas path forming hole.
