Pull broaching fir-tree slots of gas turbine is one of the most productive precision machining processes when machining simple surfaces or complex contours. Tool edge chipping and wear of uncoated broaching tool become a serious problem in the currently broaching of gas turbine discs. Therefore, tool coating can be used to improve the wear resistance of broaching tool. AlCrN-based coatings have been developed as a high hardness coating for cutters due to excellent resistance to oxidation which is higher than that of conventional coatings. However, few researches had paid attention to investigating AlCrN-based coating tool performance in the broaching process, especially in machining of heat-resisting material of heavy-duty gas turbine discs. In this paper, experiments of broaching heat-resisting material X12CrMoWVNbN1011 were investigated. In order to obtain suitable and ideal broaching tool, the AlCrN coated or uncoated T15 broaching tools were also compared. Cutting force, cutting temperature, and tool wear were measured in the broaching experiments. Results showed that: (1) with a little changed cutting load and tool edge radius, AlCrN-based coating was found to have more significantly influence in improving the tool life as comparing to uncoated tool. The similar wear forms was observed by comparing coated tool and uncoated tool. The conclusions of the study can help to improve heavy-duty gas turbine disc broaching process and broaching tool. (2) Owing to AlCrN coating’s unique combination of heat resistance and hardness, broaching tool could reach higher cutting performance levels. AlCrN coated tool compared with uncoated tool have much better performance in term of cutting strains or cutting temperature.

In this paper, the trailing edge film cooling flow field of a heavy duty gas turbine cascade has been studied by central difference scheme and multi-block grid technique. The research is based on the three-dimensional N-S equation solver. By way of analysis of the temperature field, the distribution of profile pressure, and the distribution of film-cooling adiabatic effectiveness in the region of trailing edge with different cool air injection mass and different angles, it is found that the impact on the film-cooling adiabatic effectiveness is slightly by changing the injection mass. The distribution of profile pressure dropped intensely at the pressure side near the injection holes line with the large mass cooling air. The cooling effect is good in the region of trailing edge while the injection air is along the direction of stream.

To evaluate the potential of the compressor of Sulzer’s Typ 3 gas turbine, a series of engine tests was analyzed with two computer codes. The comparison between measured and calculated performance map are given in the paper. The design goal was to find modifications, which can be applied easily to already operating engines. The simplest option-increase of shaft speed with the existing blades-would have caused high loss due to increased tip Mach number. The calculation revealed, that a newly designed first rotor blade is an appropriate modification to increase massflow and efficiency. No further change is required, because the calculations indicate, that all subsequent stages operate at near optimum incidence. The calculations were confirmed experimentally. The paper presents the new rotor blade and its influence on the compressor calculated and measured performance.

The peripheral speeds of the rotors of large heavy-duty gas turbines have reached levels which place extremely high demands on material strength properties. The particular requirements of gas turbine rotors, as a result of the cycle, operating conditions and the ensuing overall concepts, have led different gas turbine manufacturers to produce special structural designs to resolve these problems. In this connection, a report is given here on a gas turbine rotor consisting of separate discs which are held together by a center bolt and mutually centered by radial serrations in a manner permitting expansion and contraction in response to temperature changges. In particular, the experience gained in the manufacture, operation and servicing are discussed.

This paper describes the design of a 65,000-Hp heavy duty gas turbine for marine service, for land-based mechanical drive applications and for 50 Hz power generation. Operating experience of generically similar units was used to establish the high level of reliability and maintainability incorporated into this unit. This model series gas turbine will be available for commercial application in 1974.
