Abstract

An axial-flow turbine has turbine nozzles, a heat shield plate, a first communication hole formed in the turbine rotor and connected to the space, to flow a cooling medium, a first opening formed in at least any one of the two adjacent rotor disks, to be connected to the space, a second communication hole connected to the space through the first opening, to communicate with an implant unit of the turbine rotor blade in the rotor disk, a third communication hole connected to the second communication hole, to communicate along an effective length of the turbine rotor blade, a second opening formed in a side face of the turbine rotor blade, to be connected to the third communication hole, and a third opening formed in an outer circumferential end face of the turbine rotor blade, to be connected to the third communication hole.
