Turbine and blade for the protection of the root from flow path hot gases

A turbine, and particularly a low pressure turbine is disclosed, which comprises a plurality of rotor members and spacers for arranged between rotor members, to avoid that an ingested gas flow from the hot gas flow path channel reaches the wheel space. The rotor members each include a deflector. The...

More Information
Summary:A turbine, and particularly a low pressure turbine is disclosed, which comprises a plurality of rotor members and spacers for arranged between rotor members, to avoid that an ingested gas flow from the hot gas flow path channel reaches the wheel space. The rotor members each include a deflector. The deflector is placed in correspondence with each spacer and deflects the ingested gas flow over the upper surface of the spacer, thus preventing it to heat up the roots of the blades.
