Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to turbine engines, and more specifically to environmental coatings used with turbine engine components.
  • At least some known gas turbine engines include a forward fan, a core engine, and a power turbine.
  • the core engine includes at least one compressor that provides pressurized air to a combustor wherein the air is mixed with fuel and ignited for generating hot combustion gases.
  • the combustion gases flow downstream to one or more turbines that extract energy therefrom to power the compressor and provide useful work, such as powering an aircraft.
  • a turbine section may include a stationary turbine nozzle positioned at the outlet of the combustor for channeling combustion gases into a turbine rotor disposed downstream thereof.
  • the turbine nozzle may include a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart vanes.
  • the vanes are impinged by the hot combustion gases exiting the combustor and are at least partially coated to facilitate protecting the vanes from the environment and to facilitate reducing wear.
  • a platinum aluminide coating is applied to turbine components, including the vanes to facilitate environmentally protecting the components.
  • the application of platinum aluminide coatings is generally a three-step process that may include an electroplating process, a diffusion heat treatment, and an aluminiding process. During electroplating, platinum is plated over the surface of the component to be coated. Such that an electroplate coat of substantially uniform thickness is applied across the entire surface of the component.
  • a magnetic field generated by current flow between the component to be coated and an anode used in coating may be non-uniformly distributed across the component, and more specifically such flux lines may be more dense adjacent sharp edges on the part, such as adjacent the trailing edge of the nozzle vane.
  • a thicker coating of plating may be applied to such edges relative to the convex and concave surfaces of the airfoil portion of the vane.
  • the uneven distribution of coatings may cause cracking:
  • At least one known method of controlling the electroplate thickness adjacent the trailing edge requires that a disposable, metallic "robber" be positioned adjacent to the trailing edge to thieve current from the edge during the coating application.
  • the effectiveness of the robber degrades over time and it may require frequent replacement. Further methods of electroplating can be found in JP 2002 220690 , JP 10 110292 and US 4426266 .
  • a method of fabricating a gas turbine engine component is provided.
  • an electroplating apparatus in an illustrative embodiment not forming part of the claimed subject-matter, includes an electroplating bath that includes an electrolytic solution, a power source, an anode coupled to the power source, a component coupled to the power source and immersed within the electrolytic solution wherein the component includes a plating surface bordered by an edge, and a non-consumable shield positioned adjacent to the component edge such that a gap is defined between the edge and the shield and wherein the shield and the gap form a fluid flow restriction adjacent to the edge.
  • an electroplating apparatus in another illustrative embodiment not forming part of the claimed subject-matter, includes an electroplating bath including an electrolytic solution comprising platinum, a power source, an anode coupled to the power source, a component to be electroplated coupled to the power source and immersed within the electrolytic solution wherein the component includes a plating surface and an edge, and a non-consumable shield positioned adjacent to the edge such that a gap is defined between the edge and the shield and wherein the shield and the gap form a fluid flow restriction adjacent to the edge.
  • the shield is configured to displace an electric field away from the edge to facilitate reducing an amount of electroplating deposited on the edge.
  • the term "component” may include any component configured to be coupled with a gas turbine engine that may be coated with a metallic film coating, for example a high pressure turbine nozzle vane.
  • a high pressure turbine nozzle vane is intended as exemplary only, and thus is not intended to limit in any way the definition and/or meaning of the term "component”.
  • the invention is described herein in association with a gas turbine engine, and more specifically for use with a high pressure turbine nozzle vane for a gas turbine engine, it should be understood that the present invention is applicable to other gas turbine engine stationary components and rotatable components. Accordingly, practice of the present invention is not limited to high pressure turbine nozzle vanes for a gas turbine engine.

  • FIG 3 is a perspective view of an exemplary electroplating process 200 for applying an electroplate coating to vanes 118 (shown in Figure 2 ).
  • vane 118 may energized to a predetermined negative voltage with respect to a grid 202 such that when an electrolyte solution containing metal ions, for example, platinum covers a surface of vane 118, for example, sidewall 126, the metal ions in the electrolyte solution may be preferentially attracted to and bonded to sidewall 126 to form an electroplate coating 204.
  • metal ions for example, platinum
  • a non-conducting, non-consumable shield 206 is positioned adjacent trailing edge 136 such that a longitudinal axis 208 of shield 206 is substantially parallel to trailing edge 136 and separated by a gap 210 having a predetermined distance 212.
  • distance 212 is approximately thirty mils. In an alternative embodiment, distance 212 is a distance greater than or less then thirty mils.
  • shield 206 is fabricated from a non-conducting material, for example, plastic and has an outside diameter 218, for example, 19.05mm (three-quarters inches) that is substantially greater than the thickness 220 of vane 118 at trailing edge 136.
  • shield 206 may be formed to follow the contour of an irregularly shaped or curved edge while maintaining gap distance 212. Additionally, shield 206 may include an irregular cross-section, for example, shield 206 may be a hollow or solid and may include a groove or slot configured to be aligned with edge 136 for optimizing the flow restrictive gap distance 212 and/or the electrical characteristics of the electric field proximate gap distance 212.
  • FIG 4 is a cross-sectional view of high pressure turbine nozzle vane 118 that may be used in electroplating process 200 (shown in Figure 3 ).
  • Vane 118 includes concave pressure sidewall 126 and convex suction sidewall 128 that each extend axially between leading edge 134 and trailing edge 136.
  • a plurality of thickness test locations are located at predetermined locations about a perimeter of vane 118 and are labeled 401-410.
  • Figure 5 is a graph 500 of electroplate coating thickness readings taken at each of the plurality of test locations 401-410 (shown in Figure 4 ).
  • Graph 500 includes an x-axis 502 whose units correlate with each respective test location, 401-410 (shown in Figure 4 ).
  • electroplate coating thickness reading 401 is taken proximate leading edge 134
  • electroplate coating thickness reading 406 is taken proximate trailing edge 136
  • electroplate coating thickness readings 404 and 409 are taken proximate convex side 128 and proximate concave side 126 respectively.
  • a y-axis 504 may be graduated in units of mils indicative of a thickness of a plating coating corresponding to the respective location, 401-410.
  • a trace 506 joins points on graph 500 corresponding to an exemplary electroplate process for coating nozzle vane 118 with a metallic film coating.

  • Trace 506 illustrates a metallic film coating thickness at location 406 that is approximately only 25% greater than the metallic film coating thickness at locations 401-405 and 407-410. Using shield 206 results in a more uniform metallic film coating thickness around the perimeter of vane 118.
  • Trace 508 exhibits a thickness ratio of approximately 1.94, using the above formula, while trace 506 exhibits a thickness ratio of approximately 3.03, which represents a 40% improvement in uniformity of the metallic film coating thickness about the perimeter of vane 118.
  • the above-described methods and apparatus are cost-effective and highly reliable for providing a substantially uniform metallic film coating thickness on gas turbine engine components, such as a high pressure turbine first stage nozzle.
  • the shield positioned adjacent the edge of the nozzle vane to be coated defines an electrolyte flow restrictive gap and displaces a portion of the electric field adjacent the edge. Restricting the electrolyte flow adjacent the edge permits the electrolyte to be depleted in the gap and reduces the metallic ion concentration available for plating the edge. Displacing a portion of the electric field adjacent the edge facilitates reducing the electroplating motive force and thus, the rate of plating on the edge.
  • the methods and apparatus facilitate fabrication of machines, and in particular gas turbine engines, in a cost-effective and reliable manner.
  • electroplating methods and apparatus components are described above in detail.
  • the components are not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, but rather, components of each apparatus may be utilized independently and separately from other components described herein.
  • Each electroplating method and apparatus component can also be used in combination with other electroplating methods and apparatus components.
