<p>A gas turbine (30) of the axial flow type comprises a rotor with alternating rows of air-cooled blades (20) and rotor heat shields, and a stator with alternating rows of air-cooled vanes (21) and stator heat shields (27) mounted on inner rings (26), whereby the stator coaxially surrounds the rotor to define a hot gas path (22) in between, such that the rows of blades (20) and stator heat shields (27), and the rows of vanes (21) and rotor heat shields are opposite to each other, respectively, and a row of vanes (21) and the next row of blades (20) in the downstream direction define a turbine stage (TS), and whereby the blades (20) are provided with outer blade platforms (45) at their tips. An efficient cooling and long life-time is achieved by providing outer blade platforms (45), which comprise on their outside a plurality of teeth (46a-c) running parallel to each other in the circumferential direction and being arranged one after the other in the direction of the hot gas flow, whereby said teeth (46a-c) are divided into first and second teeth (46a; 46b-c), the second teeth (46b-c) being located downstream of the first teeth (46a), the first teeth (46a) are opposite to a downstream projection (33) of the adjacent vanes (21) of the turbine stage (TS), and the second teeth (46b-c) are opposite to the respective stator heat shields (27).</p> |
