    Abstract: Nickel-based superalloys and additive manufacturing processes using nickel-based superalloys are disclosed herein. For example, a nickel-based superalloy includes, on a weight basis of the overall superalloy: about 9.5% to about 10.5% tungsten, about 9.0% to about 11.0% cobalt, about 8.0% to about 8.8% chromium, about 5.3% to about 5.7% aluminum, about 2.8% to about 3.3% tantalum, about 0.3% to about 1.6% hafnium, about 0.5% to about 0.8% molybdenum, about 0.005% to about 0.04% carbon, and a majority of nickel. Exemplary additive manufacturing processes include subjecting such a nickel-based superalloy in powdered build material form to a high energy density beam in an additive manufacturing process to selectively fuse portions of the build material to form a built component and subjecting the built component to a finishing process to precipitate a gamma-prime phase of the nickel-based superalloy.

    Abstract: In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, a method of forming a ceramic reinforced titanium alloy includes the steps of providing, in a pre-alloy powdered form, a ceramic reinforced titanium alloy composition that is capable of achieving a dispersion-strengthened microstructure, directing a low energy density energy beam at a portion of the alloy composition, and forming a ceramic reinforced titanium alloy metal having ceramic particulates of less than 10 μm on a weight-average basis. The step of forming includes the sub-steps of withdrawing the energy beam from the portion of the powdered alloy composition and cooling the portion of the powdered alloy composition at a rate greater than or equal to about 106° F. per second, thereby forming the ceramic reinforced titanium alloy metal.

    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a plurality of interconnected separator members that respectively include a first surface and an opposite second surface. The separator members respectively include an array of wave features. Also, the separator members are stacked and disposed in an alternating arrangement with the first surfaces of adjacent separator members facing each other and attached at the respective wave features, and with the second surfaces of adjacent separator members facing each other and attached at the respective wave features. The heat exchanger also includes a plurality of first flow passages for first fluid flow and second flow passages for second fluid flow. The second fluid and the first fluid are configured to exchange heat through the separator members.

    Abstract: A turbine vane includes an airfoil that extends from an inner diameter to an outer diameter, and from a leading edge to a trailing edge. The turbine vane includes an inner platform coupled to the airfoil at the inner diameter. The turbine vane includes a cooling system defined in the airfoil including a first conduit in proximity to the leading edge to cool the leading edge and a second conduit to cool the trailing edge. The first conduit has an inlet at the outer diameter to receive a cooling fluid and an outlet portion that is defined at least partially through the inner platform. The first conduit includes a plurality of cooling features that extend between a first surface and a second surface of the first conduit, and the first surface of the first conduit is opposite the leading edge.
