Abstract
A method for disassembly of a rotor, in particular the front rotor of a gas turbine with a housing and a channel which diverges in a direction of flow and in which the rotor is arranged, is disclosed. An embodiment of the method includes axially displacing an outer sealing ring that is radially opposite the rotor, and whose minimum inside diameter is smaller than the maximum outside diameter of the rotor, against the direction of flow. Then, the rotor is axially displaced against the direction of flow, in particular out of the housing. A method for assembly of such a rotor, as well as a tool for the same, is also disclosed.
