    摘要: An annulus filler for mounting to a rotor disc of a gas turbine engine includes a coupling portion and an outer lid coupled to the coupling portion. The outer lid includes a leading edge, a trailing edge, and a main portion including an outer radial surface. The outer lid further includes a protruding portion connected to the main portion and extending radially outwardly from the main portion. The protruding portion is axially disposed between and spaced apart from the leading edge and the trailing edge. The protruding portion includes a protruding surface contiguous with and extending radially outwardly from the outer radial surface, such that the protruding surface is configured to redirect air drawn through the gas turbine engine.

    摘要: This blade repair method has: a first welding step in which overlay welding in which a first welding material is used is performed to form a notched part and a bury a first region positioned on a blade-body side with a first welding material; and a second welding step in which, after the first welding step, overlay welding in which a second welding material is used is performed to form a notched part and bury a second region positioned on a front-surface side of a platform with the second welding material. The high-temperature strength of the second welding material is higher than the high-temperature strength of the first welding material, the weldability of the first welding material is higher than the weldability of the second welding material, and the second region is located in a range from 1.0 mm to 3.0 mm (inclusive) from the front surface of the platform toward the blade body.

    摘要: Methods and systems for manipulating surface topology of additively manufactured fluid interacting structures, such as additively manufactured heat exchangers or airfoils, and associated additively manufactured articles, are disclosed. In one aspect, an article which interacts with a fluid is imparted with surface topology features which affect performance parameters related to the fluid flow. The topological features may be sequenced, combined, intermixed, and functionally varied in size and form to locally manipulate and co-optimize multiple performance parameters at each or selectable differential lengths along a flow path. The co-optimization method may uniquely prioritize selectable performance parameters at different points along the flow path to improve or enhance overall system performance. Topological features may include design features such as dimples, fins, boundary layer disruptors, and biomimicry surface textures, and manufacturing artefacts such as surface roughness and subsurface porosity distribution and morphology.
