The present invention is a ceramic matrix composite turbine engine component, wherein the component has a direction of maximum tensile stress during normal engine operation. The component comprises a plurality of biased ceramic plies, wherein each biased ply comprises ceramic fiber tows, the tows being woven in a first warp direction and a second weft direction, the second weft direction lying at a preselected angular orientation with respect to the first warp direction, wherein a greater number of tows are woven in the first warp direction than in the second weft direction, and wherein a number of tows in the second weft direction allows the biased plies to maintain their structural integrity when handled. The plurality of biased plies are laid up in a preselected arrangement to form the component, and a preselected number of the plurality of biased plies are oriented such that the orientation of the first warp direction of the preselected number of biased plies lie about in the direction of maximum tensile stress during normal engine operation. A coating is applied to the plurality of biased plies. The coating is selected from the group consisting of BN, SiC, and combinations thereof. A ceramic matrix material lies in interstitial regions between the tows of each biased ply and the interstitial region between the biased plies.

摘要:
A ceramic matrix composite (CMC) component for gas turbine engines, the component having fine features such as thin edges with thicknesses of less than about 0.030 inches and small radii of less that about 0.030 inches formed using the combination of prepreg plies layed up with non-ply ceramic inserts. The CMC components of the present invention replace small ply inserts cut to size to fit into areas of contour change or thickness change, and replace the small ply inserts with a fabricated single piece discontinuously reinforced composite insert, resulting in fewer defects, such as wrinkles, and better dimensional control.

A composite blading member includes an airfoil and a base of composite material layers and a platform of composite material layers interfused with the airfoil and base. The platform comprises a platform shelf and a plurality of spaced-apart platform supports integral with the platform shelf and interfused with surfaces of the base. Such blading member was made by providing a partially cured airfoil-base preform and a platform preform, including an airfoil shaped opening therethrough and preforms of the platform supports. The airfoil-base preform was inserted through the airfoil shaped opening whereby cooperating surfaces of the platform preform and airfoil-base preform were in juxtaposition. The preforms were heated to partially cure them together. Then they were interfused with a binder compatible with material of the preforms under conditions to substantially fully cure the structures.
