Abstract

Extreme high temperature conditions demand novel solutions for hot gas filters and coolant access architectures, i.e., porous layers on exposed components. These high temperatures, for example in current turbine engines, are at or exceeding current material limits for high temperature oxidation/corrosion, creep resistance, and, even, melting temperature. Thus novel blade designs allowing greater heat removal are required to maintain airfoil temperatures below melting and/ or rapid creep deformation limits. Gas atomized Ni-base superalloy powders were partially sintered into porous layers to allow full-surface, transpirational cooling of the surface of airfoils. Furthermore, these powder-processed porous layers were fully characterized for surface, morphology, cross-sectional microstructure, and mechanical strength characteristics. A sintering model based on pure Ni surface diffusion correlated well with the experimental results and allowed reasonable control over the partial sintering process to obtain a specified level of porosity within the porous layer.

Computational Materials Design of Castable SX NI-Based Superalloys for IGT Blade Components

Technical Report Gong, Jiadong

Improvements to the efficiency of advanced power systems is a critical technological concern. Higher efficiencies can reduce harmful byproduct such as CO₂ and NO_x emissions while utilizing coal resources more effectively. In order to improve the thermal efficiency of modern power plant technologies, the materials of the turbine blades and vanes must possess superior creep rupture resistance to endure the higher inlet temperatures associated with higher efficiencies. Ni-based single crystal (SX) superalloy blades, seen widely in aerospace engines, possess high creep strength in comparison with conventionally cast and directionally solidified (DS) blades. However, industrial gas turbines (IGTs) require much largermore »« less
Experimental Investigation on Additively Manufactured Transpiration and Film Cooling Structures

Journal Article Min, Zheng ; Huang, Gan ; Parbat, Sarwesh Narayan ; ... - Journal of Turbomachinery

The last 50 years has witnessed significant improvement in film cooling technologies while transpiration cooling is still not implemented in turbine airfoil cooling. Although transpiration cooling could provide higher cooling efficiency with less coolant consumption compared to film cooling, the fine pore structure and high porosity in transpiration cooling metal media always raised difficulties in conventional manufacturing. Recently, the rapid development of additive manufacturing (AM) has provided a new perspective to address such challenge. With the capability of the innovative powder bed selective laser metal sintering (SLMS) AM technology, the complex geometries of transpiration cooling part could be precisely fabricatedmore »« less

Improving the phase stability and oxidation resistance of β-NiAl

Thesis/Dissertation Brammer, Travis

High temperature alloys are essential to many industries that require a stable material to perform in harsh oxidative environments. Many of these alloys are suited for specific applications such as jet engine turbine blades where most other materials would either melt or oxidize and crumble (1). These alloys must have a high melting temperature, excellent oxidation resistance, good creep resistance, and decent fracture toughness to be successfully used in such environments. The discovery of Ni based superalloys in the 1940s revolutionized the high temperature alloy industry and there has been continued development of these alloys since their advent (2).

Mechanisms of High Temperature/Low Stress Creep of Ni-Based Superalloy Single Crystals

Technical Report Mills, Michael J

Cast nickel-based superalloys are used for blades in land-based, energy conversion and powerplant applications, as well as in aircraft gas turbines operating at temperatures up to 1100 C, where creep is one of the life-limiting factors. Creep of superalloy single crystals has been extensively studied over the last several decades. Surprisingly, only recently has work focused specifically on the dislocation mechanisms that govern high temperature and low stress creep. Nevertheless, the perpetual goal of better engine efficiency demands that the creep mechanisms operative in this regime be fully understood in order to develop alloys and microstructures with improved high temperaturemore »« less

Minor Elements and Solidification Cracking During Laser Powder-Bed Fusion of a High $$\gamma ^{\prime }$$ CoNi-Base Superalloy

Journal Article Raeker, Evan B. ; Pusch, Kira M. ; Forsik, Stéphane A. J. ; ... - Metallurgical and Materials Transactions. A, Physical Metallurgy and Materials Science

Here, the cracking behavior of a high γ' volume fraction CoNi-base superalloy fabricated via laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is studied in relation to the content of carbon and boron. Severe cracking occurred with the increase in boron content from 0.08 to 0.16 at. pct (0.015 to 0.029 wt pct), while compositions with 0.1 to 0.36 at. pct C (0.02 to 0.076 wt pct) and 0.08 at. pct B exhibited minimal cracking. Assessment of cracks in the high-boron composition shows a variation in crack density with printing parameters, and alignment of the cracks with the build direction. Scanning electron microscopymore »« less
