Abstract

In order to provide a gas turbine and a gas bleeding method which can prevent the loss of drive power due to gas bleeding to the rotor disk, bleed gas is imparted with swirling flow in the same rotational direction as that of a first stage rotor disk by being passed through a set of TOBI nozzles which constitute a flow conduit therefor, and is supplied to this first stage rotor disk, with a portion of this bleed gas flow being bypassed and being supplied between first stage stationary blades and first stage moving blades.
