摘要:
A vane has an airfoil shell and a spar within the shell. The vane has an outboard shroud at an outboard end of the shell and an inboard platform at an inboard end of the shell. The spar has a first chamber essentially along the suction side and a second chamber along the pressure side opposite the first chamber.
摘要:
A fiber reinforced glass composite article is disclosed. The article comprises from about 20 volume percent to about 50 volume percent of a glass or glass ceramic matrix, from about 5 volume percent to about 50 volume percent monofilament fiber reinforcement and from about 15 volume percent to about 50 percent yarn fiber reinforcement. The monofilament fiber reinforcement and yarn fiber reinforcement are selectively distributed in the glass matrix to provide a fiber reinforced composite article which exhibits high tensile strength, high elastic modulus, high fracture toughness.
摘要:
A multidirectionally fiber reinforced-glass matrix composite article is disclosed. The fiber reinforcement is precisely oriented in three or more directions to provide high strength and stiffness in each of the three or more directions. A method for making a multidimensionally fiber reinforced glass matrix composite article is also disclosed. The method includes impregnating a fiber preform with a colloidal suspension of inorganic material, cooling the impregnated fiber preform to precipitate the inorganic material, drying the preform, impregnating the preform with heated glass matrix material, and cooling the glass impregnated preform to form the multidirectionally fiber reinforced glass matrix composite article.
摘要:
A method of fabricating a ceramic component includes initially partially filling pores of a porous structure using one of a first processing technique or a second, different processing technique to form a preform body with residual porosity. The first processing technique produces a first ceramic material in the pores of the porous structure and a second processing technique produces a second ceramic material in the pores of the porous structure. When the first processing technique is used to initially partially fill the pores of the porous structure, the second processing technique is used thereafter to at least partially fill the residual porosity with the second ceramic material. When the second processing technique is used to initially partially fill the pores, the first processing technique is used thereafter to at least partially fill the residual porosity.
摘要:
A first member is retained to a second member to resist separation in a first direction. A joint comprises a first recess in the first member. The first member comprises at least a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) substrate. The joint comprises at least one ceramic key partially accommodated in the first recess and engaging the second member. The second member comprises at least a metallic substrate.
摘要:
A method of fabricating a ceramic component includes using vapor infiltration to deposit a ceramic coating within pores of a porous structure to form a preform body with residual interconnected porosity. Transfer molding is then used to deposit a heated, liquid glass or glass/ceramic material into the residual interconnected porosity. The liquid ceramic or ceramic/glass material is then solidified to form a ceramic component.
摘要:
A reverse flow combustor has an inlet end. A flowpath extends downstream from the inlet end through a turn. The turn directs the flowpath radially inward and reversing an axial flow direction. A large exit duct (LED) is along the turn. A small exit duct (SED) is along the turn and joined by a joint to a mounting structure to resist separation in a first axial direction. The joint comprises: a first surface on the SED facing partially radially inward; and a mounting feature engaging the first surface.
