METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MOUNTING STATOR BLADES IN AXIAL FLOW COMPRESSORS

摘要

An axial flow compressor and a method for mounting the stator blades in the compressor. The compressor is comprised of a stator casing having a rotor axially positioned therein. The casing has internal circumferential grooves into which the stator blades are equally spaced therein. Resilient spacers, e.g. leaf spring, are positioned within any spaces which might exist in the groove after all of the blades have been properly spaced around the groove.
