Abstract (en)

A turbine rotor including an elongated shaft having at least an HP region 12, the HP region having a first section supporting a stage 1 rotor wheel 14 and a second section supporting a stage 2 rotor wheel 16, the first section formed of a relatively higher-temperature-capability material and the second section formed of a relatively lower-temperature-capability material. Various mechanical couplings 26, 28, 30, 32 are described for securing the first and second sections.
