摘要:
A turbine blade having an internal skeleton having a plurality of internal ribs that form a plurality of open cooling channels; an internal environmental coating applied to the internal skeleton; an outer wall applied about the open cooling channels of the internal skeleton to form a near wall circuit of cooling channels; and an external environmental coating applied to the outer wall wherein the internal environmental coating is different from the external environmental coating.
摘要:
Methods for making a turbine blade involving casting an internal skeleton having a plurality of internal ribs which form a plurality of open cooling channels, applying a filler material to the open cooling channels, and applying an outer wall about the internal skeleton having the filler material applied to the open cooling channels.
摘要:
An article comprising a turbine component other than an airfoil having a metal substrate and a ceramic corrosion resistant coating overlaying the metal substrate. This coating has a thickness up to about 5 mils (127 microns) and comprises a ceramic metal oxide selected from the group consisting of zirconia, hafnia and mixtures thereof. This coating can be formed by a method comprising the following steps: (a) providing a turbine component other than an airfoil comprising the metal substrate; (b) providing a gel-forming solution comprising a ceramic metal oxide precursor; (c) heating the gel-forming solution to a first preselected temperature for a first preselected time to form a gel; (d) depositing the gel on the metal substrate; and (e) firing the gel at a second preselected temperature above the first preselected temperature to form the ceramic corrosion resistant coating comprising the ceramic metal oxide. This coating can also be formed by alternative methods wherein a ceramic composition comprising the ceramic metal oxide is deposited by physical vapor deposition on the metal substrate to provide a strain-tolerant columnar structure, or is thermal sprayed on the metal substrate.
