Method and apparatus for turbomachine active clearance control

A turbomachine with active clearance control comprising:

• a centrally disposed rotor;
• at least one row of rotating blades extending radially from the rotor, and each of the rotating blades having a rotor blade tip;
• a shell enclosing the rotor and rotating blades;
• at least one stator carrier split along a splitline into a first segment and a second segment, with at least one row of stator blades extending centripetally from the first segment and from the second segment, the at least one stator carrier adjustably housed within the shell and each of the stator blades having a stator blade tip, and with stator seals centripetally disposed on the first segment and second segment;
• and
• at least one displacement apparatus, each individual displacement apparatus in operable communication with the first segment and the second segment, and the at least one displacement apparatus is configured to move the first segment and second segment radially away from each other thereby providing active clearance control to the rotor blade tips and the stator blade tips.
