    摘要: A method of forming cooling holes in a gas turbine engine component. The method includes the steps of forming a hole in the component extending between a first surface of the component and a second surface of the component opposite the first surface and supplying pressurized air to the hole from the second surface of the component. The method also includes the step of sensing a parameter representative of air flow through the hole. Further, the method includes enlarging the hole until the sensed parameter represents a preselected air flow rate through the hole.

    摘要: A method for quality assurance of a laser shock peening process uses interferometry to form a fringe image from first and second interferograms of unstressed and stressed laser shock peened patches respectively of a workpiece. The fringe image may then be compared to a predetermined correlation of fringe images for indicating quality assurance. Stressing the laser shock peened patch may include loading the production and test workpieces during the production of the first and second images by interferometry while the production and test workpieces are fixtured. The loading may be done by heating, twisting, or bending of at least a portion of the production and test workpieces. The comparing of the production images of fringes may include comparing fringe characteristics of the laser shock peened patches on the production workpieces laser against fringe characteristics of the predetermined correlation.

    摘要: A method for forming a slot in a metal component having first and second opposite surfaces utilizes a first laser beam having a pulse rate and power to vaporize the metal. The laser beam is traversed across the first surface at a feed rate so that each beam pulse vaporizes the component metal at a spot. The laser beam pulse rate and feed rate are effective so that successive spots do not substantially overlap each other. The laser beam is traversed in repeated steps in a series of passes so that the spots collectively form a continuous slot to a depth below the first surface. In a subsequent step, a second laser beam is positioned in the slot to drill a hole through a base of the slot, with the second laser beam being repositioned to drill a plurality of the through holes spaced apart from each other along the length of the slot.

    摘要: A system for detecting energy leakage from an optical fiber transmitting high power laser beams. A second optical fiber is placed together with the laser power transmitting fiber into a jacketing tube or conduit. The second fiber is connected at one end to a light source and at the other end to a photosensitive diode. Leakage of laser energy from the power transmitting fiber will cause a failure of the second optical fiber, reducing or terminating the transmission of light to the photosensitive diode. Energy leakage from the laser power transmitting fiber can therefore be detected by monitoring the output of the photosensitive diode.

    摘要: A method of laser shock peening a gas turbine engine object continuously firing a stationary laser beam, which repeatably pulses between relatively constant periods, on a portion of the object with a low power laser beam, on the order of 3-10 joules, to vaporize material on the surface of a portion of a part made of a strong hard metal, such as a titanium alloy. Laser pulses around small laser beam spots, on the order of 1 mm in diameter, are used to vaporize material on the surface of the portion of the object with the pulses around laser beam spots formed by the laser beam on the surface and form a region having deep compressive residual stresses extending into the object from the laser shock peened surface. Flowing a curtain of water over the surface upon which the laser beam is firing while preferably moving the object until the laser shock peened surface is completely covered by laser beam spots at least once. The surface may be coated with an ablative coating such as a paint which is suitable to produce the plasma or the surface may be unpainted and the metal of the object is used to produce the plasma.
