A gas turbine engine component includes a gas turbine engine component body formed of a ceramic matrix composite material having at least one fastener integrally formed with the gas turbine engine component body as a single-piece structure. The gas turbine engine component body initially comprises a rigidized preform structure formed from a polymer based material. The at least one fastener connects the gas turbine engine component body to an engine support structure.

A method of coating a component includes attaching the component to a support that is configured to hold a plurality of components and placing a base of the support in a holder that is attached to rotatable member of a fixture, wherein an axis of the holder is parallel to an axis of rotation of the rotatable member. The method also includes transporting the fixture into a coating chamber wherein a direction of an exit stream of a coater in oriented perpendicularly to the axis of rotation, exposing the fixture and the component to a reverse transfer arc cleaning/pre-heating procedure, and exposing the fixture and the component to a coating procedure during which a coating is directed at the component in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation while the rotatable member is rotating. The method further includes transporting the fixture and removing the component from the support fixture.

A method of forming an integral fastener for a ceramic matrix composite component comprises the steps of forming a fiber preform with an opening, forming a fiber fastener, inserting the fiber fastener into the opening, and infiltrating a matrix material into the fiber preform and fiber fastener to form a ceramic matrix composite component with an integral fastener. A gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

A method of manufacturing a ceramic matrix composite component may include introducing a gaseous precursor into an inlet portion of a chamber that houses a porous preform and introducing a gaseous mitigation agent into an outlet portion of the chamber that is downstream of the inlet portion of the chamber. The gaseous precursor may include methyltrichlorosilane (MTS) and the gaseous mitigation agent may include hydrogen gas. The introduction of the gaseous precursor may result in densification of the porous preform(s) and the introduction of the gaseous mitigation agent may shift the reaction equilibrium to disfavor the formation of harmful and/or pyrophoric byproduct deposits, which can accumulate in an exhaust conduit 340 of the system.

A small stove assorted with smokeless combustion of combustible solids/semisolids, a stove core and a shape of briquette are to ensure that a cylindrical briquette stack is quickly ignited in a smokeless state. A section A stove core inner ring and a flame concentrator are made of a selected high-whiteness aluminum silicate fiber with superior thermal insulation/resistance effects, and are processed for, e.g., blocking the micropores inner circumferential surface, and a stove core outer ring is made of cheaper foam glass, foam ceramic or calcium silicate modules. An underlying briquette with a concave top is designed to enable an easy, convenient and fast alignment of vent holes. The overall cross-sectional area of the vent holes is expanded by 30%-50% as compared with the area of the anthracite briquettes with the same diameter, and the inner ring vent holes are mainly expanded.

A method and apparatus for protecting a furnace floor of a black liquor recovery boiler, where a mixture is formed by mixing material with a fluid, and the furnace floor is covered by said mixture by flowing the formed mixture onto the floor from the outside of the furnace.

The present invention is in the field of a high pressure heating installation and in particular a waste incineration installation comprising an advanced panel design and cladding thereof. Said cladding relates to a cladding to a in particular at least partly curved surface of a membrane panel, which panel is used in a high temperature and high pressure incinerator, such as a waste incinerator.
