ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a gas turbine in which a proper clearance is kept between a rotor blade and a shroud for a long period of time from the operation start, so that damage to the rotor blade is less liable to occur. In a turbine portion of the gas turbine in accordance with the present invention, the rotor blade and the shroud face each other. At the tip end of the rotor blade is formed an abrasive layer, and on the inner peripheral surface of the shroud is formed a heat insulating layer. The abrasive layer is formed of a matrix and many abrasive particles dispersed in the matrix. The abrasive particles include protruding particles protruding from the matrix and embedded particles embedded in the matrix. In initial sliding of the rotor blade and the shroud at the early stage of operation, the inner peripheral surface of the shroud is ground by the protruding particles. After the protruding particles have disappeared, the inner peripheral surface of the shroud is ground by the embedded particles.
