What does it mean to install a partition?
Thread Content
The upper partition is fixed to the upper half of the machine (or the upper partition) using countersunk screws. However, it is not fixed rigidly, allowing it to swing slightly around the center line, while the lower partition can be freely mounted on the lower casing. Considering thermal expansion, is the horizontal midplane of the partition slightly lower than the horizontal midplane of the casing? ? How should we understand it as not being fixed? ?

Read the text. Don’t fix it tightly; allow it to swing slightly.
The countersunk screw is fixed to the upper half, pressing only the housing without pressing the partition, allowing it to swing slightly around the center line.
It is mainly to ensure the free thermal expansion of the partition
A thermal expansion gap is sufficient; not fixing it in place ensures effective sealing at the mid-surface of the upper and lower partitions, which helps prevent air leakage between stages and maintains optimal performance
