摘要:
Gas turbine engine compressor disk (10, 12) having a hot flowpath side (16); a shaft (14) having a first surface (13) positioned in the hot flowpath side (16); and a thermal barrier (20) applied to at least the first surface (13) of the shaft (14) wherein the thermal barrier is operable to maintain the temperature of the shaft below about 700°C (1300°F) when the hot flowpath side experiences a service operating temperature of from about 700°C (1300°F) to about 788°C (1450°F).
摘要:
A process of fabricating a rotating component (10) and components (10) formed thereby. The process includes fabricating preforms (22/32,24/34) corresponding to portions of the component (10). Each preform (22/32,24/34) has an interface surface (26) at which the preforms (22/32,24/34) can be joined to locate a first (12) of the portions (12,14) in a radially outward direction from a second (14) of the portions (12/14). The preforms (22/32,24/34) are then inertia welded together to form a profile (40) having a solid-state weld joint (28) containing a finer-grained material than other portions (32,34) of the profile (40). The profile (40) is then forged with dies (42,44) to produce a forging (60/70). At least one of the dies (42,44) has a recess (52,54) into which the finer-grained material from the weld joint (28) is expelled during forging to purge a joint region (68/78) of the forging (60/70) between the forging portions (62/72,64/74) of the finer-grained material. The joint region (68/78) contains grains distorted in an axial direction of the forging (60/70).
摘要:
A method for forming nickel base superalloy articles of manufacture by a combination of hot die forging, isothermal forging and heat treatment below and above the solvus.
摘要:
A method of forming a component from a gamma prime precipitation-strengthened nickel-base superalloy. The method entails formulating the superalloy to have a sufficiently high carbon content and forging the superalloy at sufficiently high local strain rates so that, following a supersolvus heat treatment, the component is characterized by a fine and substantially uniform grain size distribution, preferably finer than ASTM 7 and more preferably in a range of about ASTM 8 to 10.
摘要:
A superalloy has a composition of, in weight percent, from about 16.0 percent to about 22.4 percent cobalt, from about 6.6 percent to about 14.3 percent chromium, from about 1.4 percent to about 3.5 percent tantalum, from about 1.9 percent to about 4.0 percent tungsten, from about 1.9 percent to about 3.9 percent molybdenum, from about 0.03 percent to about 0.10 percent zirconium, from about 0.9 percent to about 3.0 percent niobium, from about 2.4 percent to about 4.6 percent titanium, from about 2.6 percent to about 4.8 percent aluminum, from 0 to about 2.5 percent rhenium, from about 0.02 percent to about 0.10 percent carbon, from about 0.02 percent to about 0.10 percent boron, balance nickel and minor amounts of impurities. The superalloy is advantageously utilized in aircraft gas turbine disks.
