Abstract

A turbine vane and a gas turbine including the same are provided. The turbine vane including an airfoil; an outer shroud formed at a top of the airfoil; and an inner shroud including a stress canceling part formed at a bottom of the airfoil and configured to cancel a stress applied to the airfoil by flowing combustion gas.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An inner shroud of a turbine vane comprising:
a platform part configured to support a single airfoil;
a root part configured to be connected to a bottom surface of the platform part; and
a stress canceling part formed at a bottom of the single airfoil and configured to cancel a stress applied to the single airfoil by flowing combustion gas,
wherein the stress canceling part comprises a protrusion configured to protrude from a bottom of one surface of the root part and a recess configured to be recessed from a bottom of the other surface of the root part, the protrusion formed in the root part of one airfoil being inserted into and contacting the recess formed in the root part of an adjacent airfoil,
wherein the protrusion formed in the root part and the recess formed in the root part include inclined surfaces at predetermined angles,
wherein the stress applied to the single airfoil by the flowing combustion gas is canceled based on an upward displacement caused at the protrusion and a downward displacement caused at the recess during a normal operation of the turbine, and
wherein a cooling passage for cooling is formed inside the platform part and the root part.

2. The inner shroud of the turbine vane of claim 1 ,
wherein the angles of the inclined surfaces are 5° to 45°.

3. The inner shroud of the turbine vane of claim 1 ,
wherein if a length of the root part is 100, lengths of the protrusion and the recess are 5 to 30.

4. The inner shroud of the turbine vane of claim 1 ,
wherein if a height of the root part is 100, heights of the protrusion and the recess are 10 to 40.

5. A turbine vane comprising:
a single airfoil;
an outer shroud formed at a top of the single airfoil; and
an inner shroud including a stress canceling part formed at a bottom of the single airfoil and configured to cancel a stress applied to the single airfoil by flowing combustion gas,
wherein the inner shroud comprises a platform part configured to support the single airfoil and a root part configured to be connected to a bottom surface of the platform part, and
wherein the stress canceling part comprises a protrusion configured to protrude from a bottom of one surface of the root part and a recess configured to be recessed from a bottom of the other surface of the root part, the protrusion formed in the root part of one airfoil being inserted into and contacting the recess formed in the root part of an adjacent airfoil,
wherein the protrusion formed in the root part and the recess formed in the root part include inclined surfaces at predetermined angles,
wherein the stress applied to the single airfoil by the flowing combustion gas is canceled based on an upward displacement caused at the protrusion and a downward displacement caused at the recess during a normal operation of the turbine, and
wherein a cooling passage for cooling is formed inside the platform part and the root part.

6. The turbine vane of claim 5 ,
wherein the angles of the inclined surfaces are 5° to 45°.

7. The turbine vane of claim 5 ,
wherein if a length of the root part is 100, lengths of the protrusion and the recess are 5 to 30.

8. The turbine vane of claim 5 ,
wherein if a height of the root part is 100, heights of the protrusion and the recess are 10 to 40.

9. The turbine vane of claim 5 ,
wherein the root part is inserted into an annular U ring having a U-shaped cross section in a non-fixed manner, and the root part is slid radially inside the U ring based on an operating state of a gas turbine.

10. A gas turbine comprising:
a compressor configured to compress air drawn thereinto from an outside;
a combustor configured to mix fuel with air compressed by the compressor and combust a mixture of the fuel and the compressed air; and
a turbine including a turbine vane configured to generate power by combustion gas discharged from the combustor and to guide the combustion gas on a combustion gas path and a turbine blade configured to be rotated by the combustion gas on the combustion gas path,
wherein the turbine vane comprises
a single airfoil;
an outer shroud formed at a top of the single airfoil; and
an inner shroud including a stress canceling part formed at a bottom of the single airfoil and configured to cancel a stress applied to the single airfoil by flowing combustion gas,
wherein the inner shroud comprises a platform part configured to support the single airfoil and a root part configured to be connected to a bottom surface of the platform part, and
wherein the stress canceling part comprises a protrusion configured to protrude from a bottom of one surface of the root part and a recess configured to be recessed from a bottom of the other surface of the root part, the protrusion formed in the root part of one airfoil being inserted into and contacting the recess formed in the root part of an adjacent airfoil,
wherein the protrusion formed in the root part and the recess formed in the root part include inclined surfaces at predetermined angles,
wherein the stress applied to the single airfoil by the flowing combustion gas is canceled based on an upward displacement caused at the protrusion and a downward displacement caused at the recess during a normal operation of the turbine, and
wherein a cooling passage for cooling is formed inside the platform part and the root part.

11. The gas turbine of claim 10 ,
wherein the angles of the inclined surfaces are 5° to 45°.

12. The gas turbine of claim 10 ,
wherein if a length of the root part is 100, lengths of the protrusion and the recess are 5 to 30.

13. The gas turbine of claim 10 ,
wherein if a height of the root part is 100, heights of the protrusion and the recess are 10 to 40.

14. The gas turbine of claim 10 ,
wherein the root part is inserted into an annular U ring having a U-shaped cross section in a non-fixed manner, and the root part is slid radially inside the U ring based on an operating state of the gas turbine.
