摘要:
A coated substrate with a subsurface cooling channel having no corner disposed proximate a seam between the substrate and the coating. A method for forming such a structure, including forming a groove in a surface of a substrate, forming a preform having a cooperating portion and a protruding portion, inserting the cooperating portion of the preform into the groove, leaving the protruding portion of the preform protruding beyond the surface of the substrate, applying a layer of a coating material to the surface of the substrate and the protruding portion of the perform, and removing the preform, thereby creating a cooling channel.
摘要:
A modular airfoil assembly (200) and related method for interlocking components of an airfoil structure (210) including a platform (220), an airfoil (210) having a shoulder (230) and a stem (232) extending outward from the shoulder. A ring element (100) positioned against the stem (232) secures the shoulder (230) against the platform (210). First and second members (100a, 100b) of the ring element (100) are bonded together with a portion (128j) of a surface (112a) of the second member (100b) extending within and bonded to a portion (128i) of a surface (112b) of the first member (100a).
摘要:
A turbine airfoil (22A) is formed by a first process using a first material. A platform (30A) is formed by a second process using a second material that may be different from the first material. The platform (30A) is assembled around a shank (23A) of the airfoil. One or more pins (36A) extend from the platform into holes (28) in the shank (23A). The platform may be formed in two portions (32A, 34A) and placed around the shank, enclosing it. The two platform portions may be bonded to each other. Alternately, the platform (30B) may be cast around the shank (23B) using a metal alloy with better castability than that of the blade and shank, which may be specialized for thermal tolerance. The pins (36A-36D) or holes for them do not extend to an outer surface (31) of the platform, avoiding stress concentrations.

摘要:
The present invention provides near-surface cooled airfoils that can be made with near-surface cooling passages that are completely free of any leachable or otherwise sacrificial material in the recessed portion of the outer surface of the core. The turbine airfoil comprises a metallic core or substrate having an outer surface and one or a plurality of recessed portions of the outer surface; an intermediate metallic skin or foil having a back surface and a top surface, the back surface of the intermediate skin being bonded to the outer surface of the core such that the recessed portion(s) is sufficiently enclosed so as to form at least one or more near-surface cooling passages or pathways; and at least one or more metallic coatings of a high temperature-resistant metallic material deposited on a top surface of the intermediate skin.

An intermediate component includes a first wall member, a leachable material layer, and a precursor wall member. The first wall member has an outer surface and first connecting structure. The leachable material layer is provided on the first wall member outer surface. The precursor wall member is formed adjacent to the leachable material layer from a metal powder mixed with a binder material, and includes second connecting structure.

摘要:
Aspects of the invention relate to a modular turbine vane assembly. The vane assembly includes an airfoil portion, an outer shroud and an inner shroud. The airfoil portion can be made of at least two segments. Preferably, the components are connected together so as to permit assembly and disassembly of the vane. Thus, in the event of damage to the vane, repair involves the replacement of only the damaged subcomponents as opposed to the entire vane. The modular design facilitates the use of various materials in the vane, including materials that are dissimilar. Thus, suitable materials can be selected to optimize component life, cooling air usage, aerodynamic performance, and cost. Because the vane is an assemblage of smaller sub-components as opposed to one unitary structure, the individual components of the vane can be more easily manufactured and more intricate features can be included.

摘要:
A method of forming a rotor for a turbine engine such that the rotor is formed of two materials including: an outer ring formed from a first steel material, and a disk formed from a second material, such as a low alloy steel, having a larger thermal expansion coefficient than the first material forming the inner disk. The ring may include an inner aperture having a conical shape, and the disk may have an outer surface with a conical shape and a diameter with a portion that is larger than a portion of the ring. The ring may be heated such that the aperture expands to a size greater than the largest diameter of the inner disk. The ring may be positioned over the disk and allowed to cool to allow the ring to be attached to the disk. The ring and disk may then be co-forged.
