摘要:
A process of selectively removing layers of a thermal barrier coating system from a surface of a component. A thermal barrier coating system of interest comprises an inner metallic bond coat layer, an outer metallic bond coat layer that is less dense than the inner metallic bond coat layer, and a ceramic topcoat having vertical cracks therethrough. The process involves directing a jet of liquid at the component to simultaneously remove the topcoat and the outer metallic bond coat layer without removing the inner metallic bond coat layer.
摘要:
A method by which high temperature properties of a ductile iron alloy, including creep and LCF properties, can be increased for pressure-containing components that are subject to creep and low cycle fatigue. The method comprises modifying the ductile iron alloy to contain 0.4 to 0.8 weight percent molybdenum. A casting of the modified ductile iron alloy is produced and then annealed at a temperature of at least 725° C. for not less than five hours to eliminate carbides and/or stabilize pearlite in the casting. The annealed casting of the modified ductile iron alloy exhibits improved creep resistance and low cycle fatigue properties in comparison to an identical casting of a ductile iron alloy that does not contain molybdenum.
摘要:
A combustion liner for a gas turbine combustion system is provided. The combustion liner comprises a combustion zone between an inlet end and an exhaust end. The combustion liner comprises a one-piece casting construction. The combustion liner is formed from a nickel-based superalloy having strength characteristics.
