A method for profiling a turbine rotor blade for an axial flow machine, having the following steps: providing a geometric model of a blade profile, having a camber line of a profile section of the turbine rotor blade; determining boundary conditions for a flow flowing around the turbine rotor blade; changing the camber line such that the flow which is adjusted by the boundary conditions produces the maximum of the difference of the isentropic mach number between the pressure side and the suction side of the turbine rotor blade in a blade section which extends from the blade trailing edge in the direction towards the blade leading edge and the length of which is 65% of the length S of the blade chord.

An ascertainment method for determining a final angle of vanes that are adjustable between an initial angle and the final angle and are part of a row of leading vanes which are arranged upstream of a row of trailing vanes of a compressor in a gas turbine, in order to prevent ice from forming in the compressor. During operation of the gas turbine, a current value of at least one process parameter is determined in a parameter ascertainment step, whereupon the final angle is defined in accordance with the value in a final-angle defining step, an aerodynamic speed being determined as the process parameter.

A ring diffuser for an axial turbomachine is provided. The ring diffuser includes an outer wall and an inner wall coaxial thereto, between which a diffuser channel extends in a ring shape along an axial extension from an inflow-side end diverging to an outflow-side end, wherein the inner wall and the outer wall each include a wall surface bounding the diffuser channel. In order to specify a diffuser channel that is tailored to an inflow that is uneven along the circumference and that facilitates a particularly efficient conversion of kinetic energy into static energy, a rotationally asymmetric wall surface bounding the diffuser channel on the inlet side is provided.

Ring diffuser for an axial turbomachine

An arrangement with a ring diffuser for an axial turbomachine, for example for a gas turbine, is provided. The ring diffuser includes an outer wall and with an inner wall coaxial thereto, between which a diffuser duct extends in ring form along an axial extent so as to diverge from an inflow-side end to an outflow-side end, the inner wall and the outer wall in each case including a wall surface delimiting the diffuser duct. In order to specify a diffuser duct which is adapted to an inflow uneven along the circumference and by means of which a specially efficient conversion of kinetic energy into static energy is possible, the wall surface which delimits the diffuser duct on the inlet side is rotationally asymmetrical.

A stator blade and a stator blade arrangement for a turbomachine which is exposable to axial throughflow is provided. Each stator blade is retained via a fixed clamping in a circumferential groove. For the fixed clamping, provision is made on one side of the blade root for a shaped piece with a threaded hole into which a tensioning screw, which is supported on the bottom of the circumferential groove, may be screwed.

A closing assembly for closing the gap remaining between the first and last blade of a blade ring that is inserted into a peripheral groove of turbomachinery is provided. The assembly includes at least two parts each of which can be hooked onto projections that form an undercut in the peripheral groove and includes a securing element, which secures the parts from becoming detached from the peripheral groove. For closing the remaining gap, the securing element is mounted to rotate about its longitudinal axis between the two parts and has a key head and a web. The web can be positioned by rotation is such a way that to fit the parts in the peripheral groove. The parts can be displaced in relation to one another and to secure the parts from being detached from the groove. The web can be placed against at least one lateral face of one of the parts.

Closing assembly for a blade ring of turbomachinery

A closing assembly is provided. The closing assembly closes the gap remaining between the first blade and the last blade of a blade ring that is inserted in a peripheral groove of a turbo machinery, the assembly consisting of at least two lateral parts, at least one of which may be hooked onto a projection that forms an undercut in the peripheral groove and at least one securing element, which secures the parts from coming detached from the peripheral groove. To provide a particularly reliable closing assembly, the securing element is configured as a pin, joining the parts of the closing assembly in a non-positive fit.
