| Abstract | Several types of forces give a contribution to the axial thrust of gas turbines shafts: flow-path forces (due to blades, endwalls and shrouds of compressor and turbine rows), forces acting on the surfaces of rotor-stator cavities, disks forces (due to the different pressure levels in the rotating cavities inside the rotor), etc. As a rule, the estimation of the rotor thrust needs the handling of a large amount of output data, resulting from different codes. This paper presents a calculation tool to estimate the rotor axial thrust from the results of compressor, turbine and secondary air system calculations. Applications to heavy-duty gas turbines of different classes and sizes (namely two models of AEx4.3A F-class family, AE64.3A and AE94.3A, and the AE94.2 E-class gas turbines) are presented. On the basis of calculation results, in base load and part load operating conditions, guidelines to determine the rules of variation of axial bearing thrust and the relating scatter band are given. Pressure transducers were installed on the bearing pads of different gas turbines, in order to provide experimental data for the calibration of the calculation procedure. Comparison of experimental data with numerical results proves that the proposed calculation tool properly evaluates gas turbines rotor thrust and the axial bearing load. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
