摘要:
A method for additive manufacturing with multiple materials. First (48), second (50), and third (52) adjacent powder layers are delivered onto a working surface (54A) in respective first (73), second (74), and third (75) area shapes of adjacent final materials (30, 44, 45) in a given section plane of a component (20). The first powder may be a structural metal delivered in the sectional shape of an airfoil substrate (30). The second powder may be a bond coat material delivered in a sectional shape of a bond coat (45) on the substrate. The third powder may be a thermal barrier ceramic delivered in a section shape of the thermal barrier coating (44). A particular laser intensity (69A, 69B) is applied to each layer to melt or to sinter the layer. Integrated interfaces (57, 77, 80) may be formed between adjacent layers by gradient material overlap and/or interleaving projections.

Systems and methods are provided for real-time detection of the onset of stall in turbomachinery, such as compressor stall. The methods are capable of detecting and analyzing time of arrival of the chord of the blade at a sensor array to provide an indication of the onset of compressor stall. Systems for detecting the onset of compressor stall include: light sources; a plurality of linearly arranged optical fibers for transmitting light from the light sources and for receiving transmitted light reflected from a blade; a detector for measuring intensity of the reflected light; and a processor for analyzing the intensity of the reflected light to determine blade twist angle and from the blade twist angle identify onset of compressor stall. The invention can prevent the needless loss of life and assets caused by compressor stall that may lead to unexpected catastrophic failure of an engine.

A first stage turbine disk section for a gas turbine engine, including a centrally disposed disk hub having an integrally-formed, radially outwardly extending web terminating at an outer end. The disk hub has a convex, curved hub surface exposed to high pressure, high temperature compressor bleed and discharge gases during engine operation, and the convex, curved hub surface acts to reduce the axial constraint at the location of peak axial stress, thereby mitigating the formation of undesirable axial stress in the disk hub and allows separation of the peak axial and hoop stresses, thereby reducing the magnitude of the peak hub surface effective stress.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a combustor/turbine successive dual cooling arrangement in which the combustor has a one-piece hot combustor wall and front and rear cold combustor walls, and cooling air is forced under pressure through perforations in the cold combustor walls and impinges on the annular front and rear sections of the hot combustor wall for the backside cooling of the hot combustor wall. The exhaust combustor backside cooling air is directed to gain access to the hot end of the engine, that is, the turbine section, to cool the turbine components. The combustor/turbine successive dual cooling arrangement according to the present invention enables all the air typically used to cool the hot end of the engine downstream of the combustor, to be used as combustor backside cooling as well, to significantly reduce the amount of air needed for combustor and turbine cooling. Moreover, all the exhaust combustor backside cooling air must be used for turbine cooling and is never ingested into the combustion chamber, thereby avoiding negatively affecting the engine combustion emissions.

A wind turbine condition monitoring system includes a light source configured to produce an emitted light beam and a plurality of optical sensors configured to be positioned on a wind turbine to receive the emitted light beam from the light source. The optical sensors are configured to generate one or more product light beams from the emitted light beam. A detector is positioned to receive the product light beams generated from the optical sensors and is configured to measure intensity values of the product light beams for the optical sensors. A computing device is coupled to the detector and includes a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The processor executes programmed instructions stored in the memory to determine, based on the intensity values for the product light beams for the optical sensors, at least a displacement value, a current value, and a voltage value for the wind turbine.
