A turbomachine has a shaft mounted in a shaft housing, and a rotor in a rotor housing at one end of the shaft, for compression, expansion, or transport of a working gas. The shaft is mounted by hydrostatic, gas-lubricated bearings that have a connector to a compressed gas line that is connected with a pressure region of the turbomachine. A portion of the gas that is passed from the pressure region is applied to the bearing. The shaft is mounted so that the bearing effect is at least extensively independent of the rotational speed of the shaft, thereby guaranteeing support of the shaft during startup of the turbomachine, and good rigidity and low sensitivity to pressure surge stresses. The pressure in the connector to the compressed gas line is at least 5 bar greater than the pressure in the region of the ventilation connector.

1. A turbomachine comprising: a shaft mounted in a shaft housing, said housing having a ventilation connector which is connected with a low pressure region of the turbomachine;at least one rotor disposed in a rotor housing, said rotor housing being overhung at one end of the shaft, for compression,
1. A turbomachine comprising: a shaft mounted in a shaft housing, said housing having a ventilation connector which is connected with a low pressure region of the turbomachine;at least one rotor disposed in a rotor housing, said rotor housing being overhung at one end of the shaft, for compression, expansion, or transport of a working gas; andat least two hydrostatic, gas-lubricated bearings for mounting the shaft in the shaft housing, said bearings having a connector to a compressed gas line that is connected with a pressure region of the turbomachine,wherein the bearings are each configured as combined axial/radial bearings,wherein a portion of working gas that is passed from the pressure region through the compressed gas line is applied to the bearings by way of a branched connector and blown into pockets for a radial bearing effect and axial bearing effect, by means of nozzles,wherein the pockets for the radial bearing effect interact directly with an assigned surface of the shaft and the pockets for the axial bearing effect interact directly with an assigned bearing disc disposed on the shaft, thereby guaranteeing support of the shaft even during startup of the turbomachine, and guaranteeing good rigidity and low sensitivity to pressure surge stresses independent of the speed of rotation,and wherein pressure in the connector to the compressed gas line is at least 10 to 20 bar greater than the pressure in the region of the ventilation connector and the pressure drop essentially occurs over the bearings. 2. A turbomachine according to claim 1, wherein there are two rotors, one disposed at each end of the shaft, and wherein one of said rotors is assigned to a compressor stage and the other of said rotors is assigned to an expansion stage of the turbomachine. 3. A turbomachine according to claim 2, wherein the compressed gas line is connected with a high-pressure region in advance of the expansion stage, and the ventilation connector is connected with a low-pressure region in advance of the compressor stage. 4. A turbomachine according to claim 1, further comprising a filter disposed in the compressed gas line. 5. A turbomachine according to claim 1, wherein the compressed gas line has a pressure regulator or an amount flow regulator, said pressure regulator or amount flow regulator being connected with an assigned control device which allows flexible adaption of the pressure or the amount of flow during operation.
