    摘要: A curved turbulator configuration is in a radial cooling passage of an airfoil, where the radial cooling passage is defined by at least a leading wall and a trailing wall, and the airfoil includes a tip and a root. The curved turbulator configuration includes a number of spaced curved turbulator pairs positioned along a center-line on an inner surface of the leading wall and a number of spaced complementary curved turbulator pairs positioned along a center-line on an inner surface of the trailing wall. An electrode for forming the curved turbulator configuration in the radial cooling passage includes a leading face having a curved turbulator pattern, a trailing face having a complementary curved turbulator pattern, a conductive core, and an insulating coating disposed thereon that is partly removed.

    摘要: The back side recessed cooling surface of a shroud defining in part the hot gas path of a turbine is electrochemically machined to provide surface roughness elements and spaces therebetween to increase the heat transfer coefficient. To accomplish this, an electrode with insulating dielectric portions and non-insulating portions is disposed in opposition to the cooling surface. By passing an electrolyte between the cooling surface and electrode and applying an electrical current between the electrode and a shroud, roughness elements and spaces therebetween are formed in the cooling surface in opposition to the insulating and non-insulating portions of the electrode, hence increasing the surface area and heat transfer coefficient of the shroud.

    摘要: An electrode for rejuvenating a cooling passage within an airfoil, the electrode including a tip, an end, a conductive core extending between the tip and the end, and an insulating coating disposed on the conductive core. The insulating coating exposes a number of conductive strips of the conductive core extending between the tip and the end. The insulating coating forms a number of insulating portions and further exposes a number of spacer portions of the conductive core longitudinally positioned between the insulating portions. The insulating portions substantially span a distance between the tip and the end and are positioned between the conductive strips.

    摘要: An electrode having a dielectric coating is patterned to provide axially spaced rows of insulating material on the external surface of the electrode with one or more gaps in the insulating material of each row. The electrode is placed in a preformed hole of a turbine bucket and an electrolyte is provided for flow between the electrode and the walls of the hole. Upon application of an electrical current, portions of the material of the interior wall surface directly opposite the non-insulated portions of the electrode are dissolved, forming grooves. The insulated portions of the electrode leave axially spaced rows of projections extending toward the axis of the hole. The gaps in the rows or projections are axially misaligned. The projections form turbulators in the cooling flow passages of the bucket, enhancing the heat transfer coefficient.
