Example Embodiment

[0038] figure 2 with figure 1 Similar views show a first exemplary embodiment of a labyrinth seal according to the invention. with the basis figure 1 In each case, the sealing strip 13 on the stator side is arranged asymmetrically, in figure 1 , the sealing band 13 on the stator side is in each case arranged symmetrically in the center between the two sealing bands on the rotor side. The distance b from the seal band 13' on the stator side to the next adjacent seal band 14b on the rotor side on the right is the distance from the seal band 13' on the stator side to the next adjacent seal band 14a on the rotor side on the left part of a (the ratio of b to a is less than 1). figure 2 The labyrinth seal 25 is shown in the cold installed state. Also shown is the transient movement 28 of the sealing tip of the sealing band 13 on the stator side relative to the rotating part 12 . The overall motion from the cold state to the steady state is shown. The resulting transition 29...

Abstract

A labyrinth seal (25,...,27), for sealing the annular interspace (11) between the rotor (12) and the stator (10) of a steam turbine or gas turbine, comprises a multiplicity of sealing strips (13) which are arranged in series in the axial direction, are fastened on the stator (10) and project into the interspace (11), which sealing strips interact, with sealing effect, with rotor-side sealing elements (14, 19) which are arranged in a staggered manner. With such a labyrinth seal (25,...,27), an improved sealing effect is achieved by the sealing strips (13) in the cold installed state being offset in relation to a symmetrical position, wherein the offset has the reverse direction and the same amount as the distance (29) by which the sealing strip (13) is displaced relative to adjacent rotor-side sealing elements (14, 19) as a result of thermal expansions of the stationary and rotating components and support structure when being heated from the cold installed state to a hot steady-state operating condition.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of rotary thermodynamic machines. It relates to a labyrinth seal for sealing an annular gap between a stationary part and a rotating part of a rotating thermodynamic machine, in particular a steam or gas turbine. Background technique [0002] exist figure 1 A typical known interengaging labyrinth seal system is reproduced in detail in a very simplified form in . The labyrinth seal 24 shown here seals the annular gap 11 between the (inner) rotating part 12 and the stationary part 10 which surrounds it concentrically against a gas flow. The interengaging labyrinth seal 24 comprises both stator-side sealing strips 13 fastened on the stationary part 10 and rotor-side sealing strips 14 fastened on the rotating part 12, which are arranged in a staggered manner and In each case it engages radially in the gap of the opposite sealing strip. [0003] However, according to figure 1 The interengaging labyrinth seals present ...
