ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine power unit is disclosed in which the arrangement and configuration of parts is such as to save space and weight in order to provide a compact and self-contained assembly. An air-intake casing (2) supports the upstream end of a gas generator (3), the downstream end of which is integral with a power turbine (4). The stator casing (5) of the turbine (4) is connected to a cone (6) thermally insulated and completely inserted into any exhaust casing (7) having a vertical outlet, wherein the turbine exhaust is conveyed into the exhaust casing (7) by an annular diffusing cone (8). The turbine casing is supported on four legs (15, 16). In addition, the turbine rotor (10) and thus the turbine shaft (11) are overhangingly supported by an independent structure (12), the weight of which bears on the machine base (1) outside the exhaust casing (7) and away of the power turbine space.
