Cooling-air guidance in a housing structure of a turbomachine

Abstract

A housing structure for a turbomachine, the housing structure annularly surrounding, at least partially, a flow channel (14) in which guide vanes and rotor vanes are arranged. The housing structure has an inner wall (2) that delimits the flow channel and an outer wall (1) that is closed off vis-à-vis the environment. A heat-protection plate (3) is arranged on the radial outside of the inner wall, and insulation (4) is arranged between the heat-protection plate and the outer wall. At least one cooling-air channel (6) is formed between the insulation and the radial inside of the outer wall, the cooling-air channel (6) having at least one air-guiding element (5) resting against the insulation.
