ABSTRACT:
A turbomachine includes a casing having a rotor mounted therein. The casing includes an assembly with provisions for admitting a cooling medium. The assembly comprises a first member having opposed front and rear spaced, radially extending walls. A baffle member extends radially within a chamber defined by said spaced walls. The baffle member includes a plurality of equally spaced circumferential openings defining a fluid flow path for cooling medium injected into said chamber. If the fluid is in a saturated state prior to its injection into the chamber, the fluid is expanded into a superheated state at the chamber entrance. The fluid is directed by the baffle member to the outer diameter of the chamber, then radially inward through the flow path. The fluid exits from the first member through a circular gap having the top surface thereof defined by the lower inner surface of the rear wall of the first member.
