    Abstract: Methods are disclosed for fabricating heat exchangers and Heat Exchanger (HX) tubes, as are heat exchangers fabricated in accordance with such methods. In embodiments, the method includes the steps or processes of obtaining a Non-Equilibrium Alloy (NEA) feedstock powder comprised of an alloy matrix throughout which at least one minority constituent is dispersed. The first minority constituent precipitates from the alloy matrix when the NEA feedstock powder is exposed to temperatures exceeding a critical temperature threshold (TCRITICAL) for a predetermined time period. A cold spray process is carried-out to at least partially form the HX tubes from the NEA feedstock powder; and the HX tubes are subsequently installed in the heat exchanger. The HX tubes are exposed to a maximum temperature (TSPRAY_MAX) during the cold spray process, which is maintained below TCRITICAL to substantially preserve the non-equilibrium state of the NEA feedstock powder through cold spray deposition.

    Abstract: Embodiments of laminated stator cores suitable for usage in high temperature applications are provided, as are embodiments of methods for manufacturing high temperature laminated stator core. In one embodiment, the method includes obtaining a plurality of coated laminates each comprising a laminate over which a coating precursor layer is formed. The coating precursor layer contain inorganic dielectric particles having a softening point. The plurality of coated laminates are arranged in a laminate stack, which is then fired at temperatures equal to or greater than the softening point of the inorganic dielectric particles. During firing, a compressive force is applied to the laminate stack sufficient to consolidate the inorganic dielectric particles into a plurality of coherent interlaminate dielectric layers electrically insulating and bonding together the plurality of coated laminates as the high temperature laminated stator core.
