Abstract
A method is provided for adjusting the position of a rotor of a turbine. The turbine includes a first casing and a second casing. The second casing, in a bearing region of the rotor, has a fixed relative position, with regard to a rotor end, and is screwed to the first casing via a threaded connection. The method includes releasing the threaded connection; adjusting the relative position of the rotor to the first casing, which encloses the rotor in the flow region, by the relative position of the second casing to the first casing being adjusted; and refastening the threaded connection. Furthermore, a gas turbine or a steam turbine with such a device for adjusting the relative position of rotor and casing is also described.
