Definitions
- the invention relates to a method according to the introductory part of patent claim 1.
- the invention also relates to a blade which can be obtained by the method according to patent claim 1.
- Rotating thermal machines are mainly steam turbines, gas turbines and turbo compressors.
- the blades used in these machines are to be effectively protected against operational attacks, in particular erosion and corrosion, but also oxidation, wear and damage.
- the blades of rotating thermal machines are often provided with protective layers. This is used in both steam and gas turbine blades as well as compressor blades. The main thing is to increase resistance to corrosion and oxidizing attack as well as erosion and wear (wear and tear).
- the elements Cr, Al, Si forming the oxide cover layers occupy a special position.
- Layers that have a high Al content have been used, among other things, as filler material for carbide-containing coatings (Cr2C3; WC) in engine construction.
- the invention is based on the object of a method for increasing the corrosion (Cl and SO4 ions) and erosion resistance (particle and drop impact erosion) of a blade of a rotating thermal machine in the presence of H2O- Steam and at comparatively moderate temperatures (450 ° C), which is particularly suitable for ferritic and / or ferritic-martensitic base material of the blade.
- the invention as defined in claim 5, is also based on the object of specifying a blade obtained by the method according to claim 1, in which a long service life is ensured by avoiding or at least delaying the occurrence of pitting corrosion.
- a compressor blade for an axial compressor was provided with a protective layer.
- the scoop was first degreased and cleaned in trichloroethane, whereupon the blade and the pale / foot transition were sandblasted.
- the coating of the blade was carried out using a high-speed flame spraying process with a particle speed of 400 m / s and a gas speed of 1000 m / s with nitrogen as the conveying gas.
- the aluminum alloy powder was conveyed by means of nitrogen into a combustion chamber operated with propane and oxygen.
- the liquefied particles were thrown onto the workpiece as fine drops under high excess pressure.
- the blade stood in a device that covered the blade root.
- the protective layer was applied with the hand-held spray gun.
- the applied protective layer was measured using a metallographic cut and was in Average 8 to 15 ⁇ m.
- a plastic in the present case polytetrafluoroethylene was applied to this metal protective layer using a conventional paint spraying process.
- This smooth surface layer had an average thickness of 6 to 10 ⁇ m and a roughness of approximately 2 ⁇ m.
- the coated compressor blade was subjected to a corrosion resistance test. For this purpose, it was immersed in a test solution and then stored in a climatic cabinet for 4 hours. This cycle was repeated a total of 60 times.
- a compressor blade of the same dimensions and composition was coated according to Example 1 with an aluminum alloy and a plastic. Now a scratch of 10 mm in length and a total of 25 ⁇ m in depth parallel to the longitudinal axis was made on the coated blade, the profile of which just barely grasped the base material with its tip. The blade was then subjected to the same corrosion tests as in Example 1. Thanks to the local element formation (aluminum layer functions as a "sacrificial anode”), the base material was largely protected, while the aluminum layer on the flanks of the scratch was only slightly degraded.
- the protective layer according to the invention can be expected to have a long service life under practical conditions of use.
- a compressor blade was provided with a protective layer.
- the material of the blade consisted of a martensitic-austenitic two-phase steel with a low austenite content and was available in a tempered condition.
- the aluminum alloy was sprayed on using an industrial robot. 3 spray coats were carried out. The thickness of the applied layer averaged 90 to 100 ⁇ m. A plastic layer of approx. 10 to 15 ⁇ m thickness was additionally applied to this metal protective layer using a conventional paint spraying process. The coated blade was subjected to the same corrosion test as in Example 1. No attack was then found.
- a used compressor blade with wing profile was provided with a protective layer.
- the metal layer was sprayed on by hand using the high-speed flame spraying process.
- the thickness of the protective layer fluctuated between 25 and 45 ⁇ m.
- the metallographic tests after the corrosion test indicated above showed an unchanged, unaffected surface zone.
- the invention is not restricted to the exemplary embodiments.
- the method for increasing the corrosion and erosion resistance of a blade of a rotating thermal machine which essentially consists of a ferritic and / or ferritic-martensitic base material, is carried out by applying a firmly adhering surface protective layer, in that one of 6 to 15 parts by weight % Silicon and the remainder essentially aluminum protective layer is sprayed onto the surface of the base material by the high-speed process with a particle speed of at least 300 m / s.
- the base material consists of a chromium-containing steel with 12 to 13 wt .-% chromium and other additives.
- the protective layer advantageously contains 10 to 12% by weight of silicon and the remainder essentially aluminum.
- a cover layer made of a heat-resistant plastic is preferably additionally applied to said protective layer.
