A method of manufacturing a core for casting a component (20) can include manufacturing a core for at least partially forming an internal passage architecture of a component with a material including radiopaque particles. A method can include removing a material including radio opaque particles from an internal passage architecture of a component; and inspecting the component via radiographic imaging at gamma/X-ray wavelengths to detect residual material. A core for use in casting an internal passage architecture of a component can include a material with radiopaque particles dispersed therein.

摘要:
A method of forming a component (100) includes the steps of placing a core (110) into a mold (118,120) and pouring a component material (122) around the core (110). The component material (122) is allowed to solidify. The core (110) is then removed from within the material (122), leaving a component (100) having at least a first (102) and a second (104) cavity formed by the core (110). A first filler material (128) is moved into the first cavity (102), and a second filler material (126) is moved into the second cavity (104). The component (100) is inspected for the presence of an apparent residual core (132,138) within the first cavity (102) and the second cavity (104). The location is identified of the apparent residual core (132,138) from the core (110) based upon an identification of whether the location of the apparent residual core (132,138) is in the first (128) or second (126) filler materials.
