Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A can annular industrial gas turbine engine, including: a single-piece rotor shaft spanning a compressor section ( 82 ), a combustion section ( 84 ), a turbine section ( 86 ); and a combustion section casing ( 10 ) having a section ( 28 ) configured as a full hoop. When the combustion section casing is detached from the engine and moved to a maintenance position to allow access to an interior of the engine, a positioning jig ( 98 ) is used to support the compressor section casing ( 83 ) and turbine section casing ( 87 ).
