Abstract
A honeycomb structure is arranged on a stator of a gas turbine and is arranged opposite the moving blades of the gas turbine. The honeycomb structure is composed of metal sheets in such a way that webs having double the sheet thickness are obtained and connections of single thickness are obtained between the webs. The angle &agr; between the circumferential direction of the stator and the webs of double thickness is 5° to 175°. This serves to avoid undesirable efforts such as, for example, overheating during friction at the honeycomb structure of the moving blades of the gas turbine.
