Turbine part made of superalloy comprising rhenium and/or ruthenium and associated manufacturing method
A turbine part, such as a turbine blade or a distributor fin, for example, including a substrate made of superalloy based on monocrystalline nickel, including rhenium and/or ruthenium, and having a γ′-NisAI phase that is predominant by volume and a γ-Ni phase, the part also including a sublayer made of metal superalloy based on nickel covering the substrate, wherein the sublayer has a γ′-NisAI phase that is predominant by volume and wherein the sublayer has an average atomic fraction of aluminium of between 0.15 and 0.25, of chromium of between 0.03 and 0.08, of platinum of between 0.01 and 0.05, of hafnium of less than 0.01 and of silicon of less than 0.01. A process for manufacturing a turbine part including a step of vacuum deposition of a sublayer made of a superalloy based on nickel having predominantly by volume a γ′-NisAI phase, on a substrate made of superalloy based on nickel including rhenium and/or ruthenium.
Vacuum pump
Provided is a vacuum pump in which no finish processing has to be carried out after shaping of a cylindrical rotor even in use of a cylindrical rotor obtained by shaping a fiber-reinforced plastic material into a cylindrical shape. The vacuum pump has a turbo-molecular pump section and a thread groove pump section. The upper end section of a cylindrical rotor, which is obtained by shaping a fiber-reinforced plastic material into a cylindrical shape, of the thread groove pump section, is joined to the lower end section of a rotor of the turbo-molecular pump section. A joining portion of the rotor of the turbo-molecular pump section and the cylindrical rotor of the thread groove pump section is disposed upstream of an exhaust passage. As a result, finish processing does not have to be carried out after shaping of the cylindrical rotor. If finish processing is performed after shaping of the cylindrical rotor a resin may be coated onto a rugged portion of the cylindrical rotor, or fibers may be helically wound at a winding angle not greater than 45 degrees.
ANNULAR ASSEMBLY FOR A TURBOMACHINE
The invention relates to an annular assembly for a dual-flow turbomachine having a longitudinal axis (A) and comprising a casing (12) with an annular shell (14), one face of which supports a piece of annular equipment, a plurality of means of attachment (18) for attaching the equipment to the annular shell (14) being distributed around the longitudinal axis (A) and allowing the equipment (16) a degree of freedom in the tangential direction relative to the annular shell (14), characterised in that each means of attachment (18) comprises a rail (20) integral with the annular equipment (16) and arranged radially between a first radially internal plate (22) and a second, radially external plate (24) and capable of sliding in the tangential direction between the first plate (22) and the second plate (24), and in that a removable support element (56) is securely connected to the annular shell and to the first plate (22) and second plate (24).
Thermal architecture of an air compressor
Air compressor comprising a centrifugal-type compression wheel defining an axial direction and a radial direction, an air intake opening extending circumferentially around the compression wheel and opening onto a compression part, the compression part comprising a first portion forming a volute for the ejection of compressed air which is mounted facing the compression wheel in the radial direction, and an at least partly annular second portion extending around the first portion, the second portion comprising a central orifice receiving at least part of the compression wheel and an air deflection torus, the volute being made of metallic material and the torus made of thermoplastic material filled with non-metallic elements, the thermoplastic material having a thermal expansion corresponding to that of the metallic material.
METHOD OF FORMING AN ABRASIVE COATING ON A FAN BLADE TIP
A novel method of depositing grit particles onto a fan blade tip coating is provided. The method enhances grit capture by presenting a softened coating surface for the impinging particles. The softened surface is achieved without high substrate temperatures that could degrade the base metal properties in the fan blade. An auxiliary heat source is used to establish a locally heated and softened surface where the grit deposition takes place. The softened surface greatly increases the probability of grit capture.
VACUUM PUMP, CASING, AND INLET PORT FLANGE
To provide a vacuum pump which separates and constructs an inlet port flange and a casing (outer cylinder) as two components to reduce weight while retaining required strength and which is consequently capable of reducing manufacturing cost. In a vacuum pump, an inlet port flange and a casing (outer cylinder) are separated from each other and constructed as different members. The inlet port flange uses stainless steel as a material thereof and the casing (outer cylinder) use aluminum as a material thereof. The components are fastened to each other by bolts and sealed by an O-ring in order to maintain a vacuum property during assembly of the vacuum pump. Accordingly, a weight of the vacuum pump can be reduced while maintaining strength of the inlet port flange.
Method for coating a component for the hot gas duct of a turbomachine
The invention relates to a method for coating a component, which is provided for the hot gas duct of a turbomachine, wherein the coating material is applied onto the uncoated component surface in the form of particles in mixture with a binding agent, and the component with the particle-treated binding agent thereupon then undergoes thermal treatment in such a way that the binding agent is released and the coating material remains on the component.
Fairings for power generation machines
A fairing for a power generation machine, the fairing comprising: a first layer comprising a metallic material and defining a first surface and a second opposite surface, the first layer being configured to enable the fairing to be coupled to the power generation machine; and a second layer comprising a composite material and defining a first surface and a second opposite surface, the second layer being coupled to the first layer, the second surface of the second layer defining an external surface of the fairing.
Sealing ring
A sealing ring for sealing an annular gap between a shaft and a bearing body surrounding the shaft, includes two sealing ring halves having ring segment shapes and a plurality of circumferentially formed sealing tips, arranged axially adjacent on the inner peripheral surface and protruding radially inward. The sealing tips are integrally formed together with the sealing ring halves. A method produces such a sealing ring.
Abrasive tip blade manufacture methods
A blade comprises an airfoil having a root end and a tip. A metallic substrate is along at least a portion of the airfoil. An abrasive tip coating comprises an abrasive and an aluminum-based matrix. An aluminum-based base layer is between the tip coating and the substrate.
