  • CMC materials have good mechanical properties making them suitable for use in structural elements and advantageously retain these properties at high temperatures.
  • the use of CMC materials has advantageously made it possible to reduce the cooling flow required during operation and therefore to increase the performance of turbomachines.

  • the existing solutions proposed may implement an assembly of a CMC ring sector with metal attachment parts of a ring support structure, these attachment parts being subjected to the hot flow. Consequently, these metal attachment parts undergo hot expansions, which may lead to mechanical stressing of the CMC ring sectors and their embrittlement.

  • both flanges of the ring support structure are elastically deformable or only one of the two flanges of the ring support structure is elastically deformable.

    dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Einhängeteile (19a; 19b; 29a; 29b) der Ringsektoren (1b; 1c) an der Ringstützstruktur (2) im Bereich axialer Abschnitte (16a; 16b) gehalten werden, die sich jeweils parallel zur axialen Richtung erstrecken, wobei diese axialen Abschnitte von einer Vielzahl von Einsätzen (35; 37) gebildet werden, die ohne Kaltspiel durch die ringförmigen Flansche hindurch in Eingriff stehen.
  2. Anordnung nach Anspruch 1, wobei die ringförmigen Flansche (11a; 11b) der Ringstützstruktur (2) die Einhängeteile (9) der Ringsektoren (1) über mindestens die Hälfte der Länge ℓ der Einhängeteile (9) umschließen.
  3. Anordnung nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, wobei die ringförmigen Flansche (21a; 21b) der Ringstützstruktur (2) die Einhängeteile (19a; 19b) der Ringsektoren (1b) zumindest im Bereich der äußeren radialen Enden (20a; 20b) der Einhängeteile (19a; 19b) umschließen.
  4. Anordnung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 3, wobei der Einhängeteil jedes Ringsektors in Form von sich radial erstreckenden Laschen (9a; 9b; 19a; 19b; 29a; 29b) vorliegt.
  5. Anordnung nach Anspruch 4, wobei die äußeren radialen Enden (10a; 10b; 20a; 20b) der Laschen der Ringsektoren nicht in Kontakt sind und wobei die Laschen der Ringsektoren zwischen sich ein inneres Volumen (V) zur Belüftung für jeden der Ringsektoren definieren.
  6. Anordnung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 3, wobei der Einhängeabschnitt jedes der Ringsektoren in Form einer Knolle (9) vorliegt.
  7. Anordnung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 6, wobei die Ringsektoren einen im Wesentlichen Ω-förmigen oder im Wesentlichen n-förmigen Querschnitt haben.
  8. Turbomaschine, umfassend eine Turbinenringanordnung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 7.
