More Information
Summary:A torque transmission for a gas turbine rotor includes a plurality of adjacent rotating machine wheels 2. Each wheel 2 includes a first flange 10 on a first axial side and a second flange 14 on a second axial side. The first flange 10 has a plurality of first teeth extending around the circumference of the first flange and spaced by first slots, and the second flange 14 has a plurality of second teeth extending around a circumference of the second flange and spaced by second slots. The first teeth of a first wheel 2 are received in the second slots of a second, adjacent wheel 2 to transmit torque through shear of the teeth and the first flange 10 and the second flange 14 are engaged to transmit torque through friction between the flanges 10,14.
