Abstract: A method includes applying a force to elastically deform at least a portion of a superalloy turbine blade from a relaxed, initial position to an elastically deformed position. The at least a portion of the superalloy turbine blade has a curvature in the elastically deformed position not present in the relaxed, initial position. A hole is drilled generally span-wise through the at least a portion of the superalloy turbine blade in the elastically deformed position, and when the force is released, the superalloy turbine blade returns to the relaxed, initial position and the hole takes on a hole curvature within the at least a portion of the superalloy turbine blade.

Abstract: A blade for a turbine of a gas turbine engine that includes an airfoil, the airfoil having a leading edge, a trailing edge, an outboard tip, and an inboard end. The airfoil may further include a cooling configuration that includes a plurality of cooling channels for receiving and directing a coolant. The cooling channels may include a linear cooling channel and a curved cooling channel. The blade may also include a contoured shape defined by the airfoil between the inboard end and the outboard tip, with the contoured shape being configured so to include a target area inaccessible to a linear reference line extending radially from a position at the inboard end of the airfoil.

Abstract: An article, a component, and a method of making a component are provided. The article includes a contoured proximal face and a contoured distal face. The contoured proximal face is arranged and disposed to substantially mirror a contour of an end wall of a component. The component includes a first end wall, a second end wall, and an article including a contoured proximal face secured to at least one of the first end wall and the second end wall. The method of making a component includes forming an article having a proximal face and a distal face, contouring the proximal face of the article to form a contoured proximal face that substantially mirrors a contour of a first end wall or a second end wall of the component, and securing the contoured proximal face of the article to one of the first end wall and the second end wall.

Abstract: Turbine components are disclosed including a component wall defining a constrained portion, a manifold having an impingement wall, and a post-impingement cavity disposed between the manifold and the component wall. The impingement wall includes a wall thickness and defines a plenum and a tapered portion. The tapered portion tapers toward the constrained portion and includes a plurality of impingement apertures and a wall inflection. The wall inflection is disposed proximal to the constrained portion, and the tapered portion is integrally formed as a single, continuous object. The wall inflection may include an inflection radius of less than about 3 times the wall thickness of the impingement wall, or the tapered portion may include a consolidated portion with the impingement wall extending across the plenum. A method for forming the turbine component is also disclosed, including forming the tapered portion as a single, continuous tapered portion by an additive manufacturing technique.

Abstract: A turbine airfoil for a rotating blade or stationary nozzle vane includes an airfoil body including a leading edge and a trailing edge. A coolant supply passage extends within the airfoil body, and a coolant return passage extends within the airfoil body. A first trench is in an external surface of the airfoil body, the first trench extending to the trailing edge and being in fluid communication with the coolant supply passage. A second trench is in the external surface of the airfoil body, the second trench extending to the trailing edge and being in fluid communication with the coolant return passage and the first trench. A cover seats in the airfoil body and encloses the trenches to form coolant passages with the airfoil body. In embodiments, two coolant passages to and back from the trailing edge may be used to allow for a recycling flow.

Abstract: A method includes applying a force to elastically deform at least a portion of a superalloy turbine blade from a relaxed, initial position to an elastically deformed position. The at least a portion of the superalloy turbine blade has a curvature in the elastically deformed position not present in the relaxed, initial position. A hole is drilled generally span-wise through the at least a portion of the superalloy turbine blade in the elastically deformed position, and when the force is released, the superalloy turbine blade returns to the relaxed, initial position and the hole takes on a hole curvature within the at least a portion of the superalloy turbine blade.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an impingement insert for a turbomachine. The impingement insert includes an insert body having an inner surface, an outer surface spaced apart from the inner surface, and a thickness extending from the inner surface to the outer surface. The insert body defines a first depression extending from one of the inner surface or the outer surface into the insert body. The first depression has a diameter. The insert body further defines an impingement aperture extending from the first depression through the insert body. The impingement aperture has a length and a diameter. The thickness of the insert body is greater than the length of the impingement aperture and the diameter of the first depression is greater than the diameter of the impingement aperture.
