摘要:
A gas turbine engine component comprises a shroud, a U-channel, an internal cooling air passage and a U-channel cooling hole. The shroud comprises a forward face, an aft face, a first side face and a second side face. The U-channel is disposed in the aft face of the shroud. A gas path surface connects the forward face, aft face, first side face and second side face. A cooled surface connects the forward face, aft face, first side face and second side face opposite the gas path face. The internal cooling air passage extends through the shroud. The U-channel cooling hole extends into the first side face of the shroud adjacent the U-channel to intersect the internal cooling passage.

A method of fabricating an airfoil includes the steps of fabricating a first core including a first plurality of ribs defining a first plurality of passages of a completed airfoil, and fabricating as second core including a second plurality of ribs defining a second plurality of passages of the completed airfoil. The second plurality of ribs includes a plurality of standoffs. The plurality of standoffs set a spacing between the first plurality of ribs and the second plurality of ribs to define a spacing between the first plurality of channels and the second plurality of channels of the completed airfoil. The airfoil is then molded about the core assembly. Once completed, the core assembly is removed to provide a completed airfoil incorporating multiple microcircuits with a desired stability and structural integrity.

A method of assembling a blade array includes the step of inserting a blade having a platform into a rotor. The blade includes a pocket radially beneath the platform that includes an interference feature. The blade corresponds to one of first and second blades that are scaled versions of one another. The method includes the step of selecting a damper seal, and inserting the damper seal into the pocket. The damper seal corresponds to one of first and second damper seals. The first damper seal cooperates with the interference feature thereby permitting the first damper seal to fully seat within the pocket. The second damper seal is obstructed by the interference feature thereby preventing the second damper seal from fully seating within the pocket.

A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil including leading and trailing edges joined by spaced apart pressure and suction sides to provide an exterior airfoil surface extending in a radial direction. The trailing edge is arranged on an aft side of the turbine blade. A root supports a platform from which the airfoil extends and a cooling passage extends within the root in the radial direction to the airfoil. A lower wing is arranged beneath the platform on the aft side and extends in an axial direction to provide a U-shaped channel with the platform that extends in a circumferential direction. An impingement hole extends from the U-channel to the cooling passage.

A seal for a continuous casting furnace having a melting chamber with a mold therein for producing a metal cast includes a passage between the melting chamber and external atmosphere. As the cast moves through the passage, the cast outer surface and the passage inner surface define therebetween a reservoir for containing liquid glass or other molten material to prevent the external atmosphere from entering the melting chamber. Particulate material fed into the reservoir is melted by heat from the cast to form the molten material. The molten material coats the cast as it moves through the passage and solidifies to form a coating to protect the hot cast from reacting with the external atmosphere. Preferably, the mold has an inner surface with a cross-sectional shape to define a cross-sectional shape of the cast outer surface whereby these cross-sectional shapes are substantially the same as a cross-sectional shape of the passage inner surface.

A casting furnace for preheating and melting solid feed material includes a melting chamber with a melting hearth therein and a feed chamber in fluid communication with the melting chamber for conveying the solid material into the melting chamber. A heat source melts the feed material within the melting hearth and produces surplus heat used to preheat the solid feed material. Preferably, gas is heated by the heat source and moved into the feed chamber to preheat the feed material while it is conveyed toward the melting hearth. The heated gas is recycled back into the melting chamber to be re-heated therein and reused to preheat additional feed material in the feed chamber. Where the heat source in the melting chamber includes a plasma torch, the gas is recycled via the plasma torch, which ionizes the gas to create a plasma plume for melting the solid material.
