Abstract
Stator (1) for a gas turbine including a stator structure (2) having a continuous through-duct (3) for a gas through-flow, a circumferential member (6), which is arranged at a radial distance from the stator structure and is operatively coupled to the stator structure, and at least one member for maintaining the distance between the stator structure and the circumferential member. The spacing member has resilient characteristics in the radial direction of the stator.
Claims20
A stator for a gas turbine comprising:
- a stator structure having a continuous through-duct for a gas through-flow;
- a circumferential member arranged at a radial distance from the stator structure and that is operatively coupled to the stator structure;
- and
- at least one spacing member that maintains a distance between the stator structure and the circumferential member and being resilient in a radial direction of the stator.
1 more element
A stator for a gas turbine comprising:
- a stator structure and a surrounding member that is circumferentially disposed thereabout, the stator structure and the surrounding member undergoing different shape changes during the course of operation of the gas turbine so that variable spacing results between the stator structure and the surrounding member during the course of operation of the gas turbine;
- and
- a resilient spacing member attaching the surrounding member to the stator structure and adapted to accommodate the variable spacing caused between the stator structure and the surrounding member during the course of operation of the gas turbine.
