    摘要: A water-cooled stator bar clip for electrical generators and a method for applying a corrosion-resistant protective coating, preferably Sc, Ti, Cr, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf, Ta, W, Ni, and Al, and their alloys or oxides to existing stator bar end fittings in order to significantly reduce the possibility of leaks through the brazed connections of the copper stator bar end connections. The coatings can be applied locally using various known physical vapor deposition (“PVD”), chemical vapor deposition (“CVD”) or other direct coating techniques known in the art. For example, the coatings can be applied using ion plasma deposition, sputtering or wire arc techniques (all PVD processes) or by using electroplating, high velocity oxygen free (“HVOF”) deposition, DC arc or electroless plating. Preferably, the coatings are applied either to new stator bar clips or to existing clips in the field.

    摘要: A PVD process and apparatus (120) for depositing a coating (132) from multiple sources (110, 111) of different materials. The process and apparatus (120) are particulaity intended to deposit a beta-nickel aluminide coating (132) containing one or more elements whose vapor pressures are lower than NiAl. The PVD process and apparatus (120) entail feeding at least two materials (110, 111) into a coating chamber (122) and evaporating the materials (110, 111) at different rates from separate molten pools (114, 115) thereof. Articles (130) to be coated are suspended within the coating chamber (122), and transported with a support apparatus (118) relative to the two molten pools (114, 115) so as to deposit a coating (132) with a controlled composition that is a mixture of the first and second materials (110, 111).

    摘要: A method of introducing small amounts of a refractory element into a vapor deposition coating. A second material (30), containing at least two elements which are desired to be deposited as a coating on a base material, has placed over it a first material (20) substantially comprising such two elements and a refractory element. The first material (20) is adapted to permit transport of the at least two elements in the second material (30) through the first material (20) when the first (20) and second (30) material are in a molten state and in touching contact with the other so as to permit evaporation of the two elements and the refractory element from an exposed surface. Heat is supplied to the first (20) and second (30) materials to permit evaporation of the at least two elements of second material (30) and the refractory element in the first material (20), and the resulting vapors are condensed as a deposit on a base material (50). A particular method of heating is further disclosed to assist in maintaining adequate rates of evaporation for the aforesaid method, wherein the supplied heat is supplied to an inner heated area (91) and a surrounding outer heated area (92) and at least a portion of the inner heated area (91) is heated to a greater temperature than the outer heated area (92).
