    Abstract: A system and method for directionally casting an elongated device are provided. The method includes orienting a mold within a furnace such that a first portion of the mold points downward. The first portion of the mold defines a space within the mold used to form a first end of the device. The first end of the device, when formed, has a greater mass than a second end of the device. The method also includes filling the mold with molten metal and lowering the mold out of the furnace into a liquid metal bath to immerse the first portion of the mold in the liquid metal bath. The method includes concurrently lowering the mold and the liquid metal bath to cool the molten metal.

    Abstract: Rhenium-free nickel based alloys are provided. More particularly, the alloys comprise preferred levels and ratios of elements so as to achieve good high temperature strength of both gamma matrix phase and gamma prime precipitates, as well as good environmental resistance, without using rhenium. When cast and directionally solidified into single crystal form, the alloys exhibit creep and oxidation resistance substantially equivalent to or better than rhenium-bearing single-crystal alloys. Further, the alloys can be processed by directional solidification into articles in single crystal form or columnar structure comprising fine dendrite arm spacing, e.g., less than 400 μm, if need be, so that further improvements in mechanical properties in the articles can be seen.

    Abstract translation: 提供无铼镍基合金。 更具体地,合金包括优选的含量和元素比例,以便在不使用铼的情况下实现γ基质相和γ初始沉淀物的良好的高温强度以及良好的耐环境性。 当铸造和定向凝固成单晶形式时,合金具有基本上等于或优于含铼单晶合金的蠕变和抗氧化性能。 此外,如果需要,合金可以通过定向固化加工成单晶形状或柱状结构的制品,包括细小的枝晶臂间距,例如小于400μm,从而可以看到制品中机械性能的进一步改善。
