Abstract
The present invention relates to a housing for a gas turbine compressor, having an operating duct for taking up several rows of rotating blades arranged one behind the other axially, wherein a wall of the operating duct has a first air bleed, wherein the housing has a cooling passage for cooling said operating duct wall by conveying air from the first air bleed to a first outlet passage for supplying at least one first bleed air consumer, wherein the first outlet passage is arranged downstream of the first air bleed, and wherein the operating duct wall has a second air bleed downstream of the first air bleed, and the housing has a discharge passage from said second air bleed to a second outlet passage for supplying at least one bleed air consumer.
