Turbine module for a turbomachine

1. A turbine module for a turbomachine, the turbine module comprising: a main channel to guide a main flow through the turbine module; a rotor blade; a stator vane, the rotor blade adjacent to and directly upstream of the stator vane, the stator vane including a stator airfoil and a platform, the stator airfoil being arranged downstream of the rotor blade in the main channel; and a cavity including an inlet for injecting a part of the main flow into the cavity and an outlet for a reinjection of the part of the main flow from the cavity into the main channel, the cavity being arranged at an axial position of the stator vane and radially offset from the stator airfoil; wherein the part of the main flow guided into the cavity is a leakage flow of the rotor blade adjacent to and directly upstream of the stator vane; and wherein an opening of the inlet is arranged at an upstream end of the stator vane at the platform of the stator vane.

2. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 , wherein an opening of the inlet is arranged at a wall surface radially delimiting the main channel.

3. The turbine module as recited in claim 2 wherein the wall surface is of the platform of the stator vane.

4. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 wherein the cavity is radially delimited by the platform.

5. The turbine blade as recited in claim 4 wherein the cavity is radially delimited by a wall surface of the platform radially opposite to another wall surface delimiting the main channel.

6. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 wherein an opening of the outlet is arranged at a minimum 20% of an axial chord length of the stator airfoil, the axial chord length being defined at a wall surface of the platform.

7. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 wherein an opening of the outlet is arranged at a maximum 99% of an axial chord length of the stator airfoil, the axial chord length being defined at a wall surface of the platform.

8. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 wherein the outlet includes inclined holes or slots for guiding the part of the main flow reinjected from the cavity into the main channel.

9. The turbine module as recited in claim 8 wherein a middle axis of at least one of the inclined holes or slots forms an angle of maximum 60° with a wall surface radially delimiting the main channel.

10. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 wherein an opening of the outlet is arranged in the stator airfoil.

11. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 further comprising a heat shield element arranged bordering the cavity, the heat shield element radially delimiting the cavity.

12. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 further comprising ribs for guiding the flow in the cavity and arranged in the cavity.

13. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 wherein the cavity includes an additional inlet for guiding an additional flow into the cavity, the additional flow being sourced externally outside the main flow.

14. A turbomachine comprising the turbine module as recited in claim 13 .

15. A method for operating the turbomachine as recited in claim 14 wherein the part of the main flow is guided into the cavity and reinjected from the cavity into the main channel.

16. The turbine module as recited in claim 1 wherein the outlet is upstream of a trailing edge of the stator airfoil and is oriented to reinject the part of the main flow from the cavity onto a surface of the stator airfoil.

17. The turbine module as recited in claim 16 wherein the part of the main flow reinjected from the cavity has a circumferential velocity.

18. The turbine module as recited in claim 17 wherein the part of the main flow reinjected from the cavity is directed towards the pressure side of the stator airfoil.

19. The turbine module as recited in claim 18 further comprising ribs for guiding the flow in the cavity and arranged in the cavity.
