Abstract (en)

The regulator consists of a crankcase member (7) situated between the ring (5) and a gas blower (10), having a cavity (16) which is connected through ducts (20,22) to the chambers before and after the ring which surround a gas circulation flow bounded by the ring, and with the cavity and ducts extending some distance from the ring. The cavity (16) is divided by a perforated partition (19) into front and rear sections (17,18) which are connected by the ducts to the forward and after chambers. The perforations in the partition are offset radially and peripherally relative to the ducts. The cavity is located in a stator ring supporting rib, and a variant of the design can have two ribs and two cavities.

Abstract (fr)

Agencement de réglage du diamètre d'un anneau (5) de turbomachine situé en face d'aubes mobiles (4) de rotor, et lié à un élément de carter (7). Ce dernier est creusé d'une cavité (16) communiquant à des chambres (21 et 23) autour de la veine (31) d'écoulement des gaz. Un léger courant d'air traverse la cavité (16), et il est suffisamment modéré pour que se développe une convection thermique qui uniformise la température de l'élément de carter (7) et de l'anneau (5) et donc le diamètre de celui-ci. <IMAGE>
