Piping assembly and method for connecting inner and outer shell in turbine system

摘要

A piping assembly (50) and a method for connecting an inner shell (30) and an outer shell in a turbine system are disclosed. The piping assembly (50) includes an inner fitting (52) for connection to the inner shell (30) and an outer fitting (54) for connection to the outer shell. The piping assembly (50) further includes an attenuation member (56) extending between the inner fitting and the outer fitting and comprising an attenuation curve (58). The attenuation curve (58) permits movement of the attenuation member (56) in at least one of a longitudinal direction, a radial direction, or a tangential direction.
