摘要:
A part including a substrate in which at least a portion adjacent to a surface of the substrate is made of a refractory material containing silicon, is protected by an environmental barrier formed on the surface of the substrate and having at least a self-healing layer containing a rare earth silicate. The self-healing layer is formed: for at least 90 mol %, by a system constituted by 30 mol % to at most 80 mol % of at least one rare earth silicate RE2Si2O7, RE being a rare earth, and at least 20 mol % to 70 mol % of manganese oxide MnO; and for at most 10 mol %, by one or more oxides other than MnO, having a eutectic point with SiO2 less than or equal to 1595° C.; the self-healing layer presenting a liquid phase having a self-healing function at least throughout the temperature range 1200° C. to 1400° C., while conserving a majority solid phase.

One aspect of the present disclosure includes a turbine vane assembly comprising a vane made from ceramic matrix composite material having an outer wall extending between a leading edge and a trailing edge and between a first end and an opposing second end; an endwall made at least partially from a ceramic matrix composite material configured to engage the first end of the vane; and a retaining region including corresponding bi-cast grooves formed adjacent the first end of the vane and a receiving aperture formed in the endwall; wherein a bond is formed in the retaining region to join the vane and endwall together.
摘要:
In some examples, a coating may include at least one feature that facilitates visual determination of a thickness of the coating. For example, the coating may include a plurality of microspheres disposed at a predetermined depth of the coating. The plurality of microspheres may define a distinct visual characteristic. By inspecting the coating and viewing at least one of the microspheres, the thickness of the coating may be estimated. In some examples, the plurality of microspheres may be embedded in a matrix material, and the distinct visual characteristic of the microspheres may be different than the visual characteristic of the matrix material. In other examples, the at least one feature may include at least one distinct layer in the coating system that includes a distinct visual characteristic, such as a color of the distinct layer.

A fragmenting nozzle system includes a first nozzle at least partially disposed within a second nozzle. The first nozzle includes an ablative shell, a syntactic foam support disposed between the ablative shell and the second nozzle, and an ignition system disposed at least partially within the syntactic foam support. For example, the ignition system is operable to generate a controlled-energy deflagration pressure wave that fragments the first nozzle but not the second nozzle.

A metal single crystal turbine component with internal passageways includes a polycrystalline turbine blade formed by additive manufacturing. The turbine component is remelted and directionally solidified to form the single crystal turbine component with internal passageways.
摘要:
An intermediate component with an internal passageway includes a solid metallic additively manufactured component with an internal passageway in a near finished shape. The component has voids greater than 0 percent but less than approximately 15 percent by volume and up to 15 percent additional material by volume in the near finished shape compared to a desired finished configuration. Also included are a ceramic core disposed within the internal passageway of the component and an outer ceramic shell mold encasing an entirety of the component, such that an entire external surface of the component is covered by the outer ceramic shell mold.

A rotating component includes an airfoil section with a free end, the airfoil section being formed of a composite core with a metallic skin and an abrasive coating applied to the free end.
摘要:
One embodiment includes a method to regenerate a component. The method includes additively manufacturing the component with at least a portion of the component in a near finished shape. The component is encased in a shell mold, the shell mold is cured, the encased component is placed in a furnace and the component is melted, the component is solidified in the shell mold, and the shell mold is removed from the solidified component.

Methods and materials for forming in-situ features in a ceramic matrix composite component are described. The method of forming a ceramic matrix composite component with cooling features, comprises forming a preform tape, laying up said preform tape to a desired shape, placing a high-temperature resistant fugitive material insert of preselected geometry in the preform tape of the desired shape, compacting the preform tape of the desired shape, burning out the preform tape of the desired shape, melt infiltrating the desired shape, removing the high-temperature resistant insert to form the cooling features during one of the burning out or the melt infiltrating or following the burning out or the melt infiltrating.
