A turbine rotor having an improved rotor tip, which has at least one cooling channel in the rotor blade, the cooling channel, in the region of its cuspidal point, having at least one locally limited constriction that is caused by a thickened portion at the end of a partition of the cooling channel.

Rotor-blade tip including cooling configuration

A method for repairing a damaged leading or trailing edge region of a metallic turbine blade, which has a suction-side blade wall, a pressure-side blade wall and a leading edge and a trailing edge, includes: removing the damaged leading or trailing edge region, with a cutout being formed; providing a replacement part which can be inserted in form-fitting fashion into the cutout and which restores the intended geometry of the turbine blade; inserting the replacement part in form-fitting fashion into the cutout in a predetermined insertion direction, and cohesively connecting the replacement part to the turbine blade, wherein mechanical connection of the replacement part and turbine blade using separate fastening elements is performed in addition to the cohesive connection.

Method for repairing a damaged leading or trailing edge region of a metallic turbine blade

A turbine blade tip, turbine blade and method where improved cooling is made possible by an improved cooling structure with cooling air holes inside a depression in a blade tip and a special arrangement of multiple cooling air holes which are supplied by a single cooling air channel inside a wall.
