Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a blade or a vane for a turbomachine and more particularly to an arrangement for achieving continuous cooling of the blade or the vane in case of a damage of a thermal barrier coating of the blade or the vane.
  • blade In the present application, for the sake of brevity only the term "blade" has been used, but the specifications and features can be transferred to a vane of a turbomachine without further modifications. It might be mentioned that the basic idea of the invention is also applicable for a platform of a blade or a platform of a vane.
  • turbomachines various components of the turbomachine operate at very high temperatures.
  • turbine blades of the first stages of the turbomachines are thermally high loaded due to hot gas temperatures and high heat transfer coefficients caused by flow stagnation at the leading edges as well as high hot gas velocities.
  • the blades are coated with a ceramic thermal barrier coating (TBC) to reduce heat flux from the hot gas to the blade's base material which is typically a metal. This results in lower metal temperatures than without the TBC.
  • TBC ceramic thermal barrier coating
  • internal cooling is generally achieved by passing a cooling fluid through a core passage way cast into the blade component and into the airfoil of the blade, respectively.
  • the airfoil portion of the blade is cooled by directing the cooling fluid to flow through multiple flow paths of the core passage way that are designed to maintain all aspects of the turbine blade at a relatively uniform temperature.
  • the cooling fluid is directed over the internal surfaces of the airfoils to achieve a cooling effect.
  • film cooling holes are available through which the cooling fluid can exit the blade to create a separation in the form of a film of the cooling fluid between the blade surface and the hot gas flowing in vicinity of the blade surface. This results in external cooling of the blade.
  • the film cooling holes are especially located at thermally high loaded areas of the blade and the airfoil such as the leading edge.
  • the cooling fluid can be fed to the film cooling holes by the core passage way.
  • the core passage ways and/or the cooling holes form a cooling arrangement of the blade.
  • the object is achieved by providing a component for a turbomachine according to claim 1 and a method for manufacturing a component for a turbomachine according to claim 14.
  • the approach of the present technique is to address the issue of local overheating, and resulting extremely high temperatures, by introducing regions of reduced thickness of the TBC, for example by implementing recesses in the TBC, at predefined areas of the TBC covering certain regions of the component.
  • the regions of reduced thickness of the TBC are in fluid communication with the cooling holes that connect to the cooling arrangement for guiding a cooling fluid within the component.
  • the regions of reduced thickness can be located in the TBC covering a leading edge of an airfoil wall of a blade of the turbomachine and can be in fluid communication with the cooling channels inside the airfoil through cooling holes emanating from the cooling channels and running through the airfoil wall of the blade.
  • the regions of reduced thickness of the TBC are realized as predetermined breaking points of the TBC because of the reduced thickness of the TBC in these regions compared to a thickness of the TBC in other regions of the TBC.
  • the regions of reduced thickness of the TBC will break faster than the other regions of the TBC owing to a thicker TBC in the other regions compared to the regions of reduced thickness of the TBC. This will open up the cooling holes which were earlier covered by the regions of reduced thickness of the TBC and thus the cooling fluid from the underlying core passage way or the cooling arrangements can exit the airfoil at regions affected by TBC loss, resulting in a film cooling effect.
  • This cooling will protect the blade at least temporarily and guarantee a proper functioning until the next inspection. This helps in preventing a damaged component from complete failure at least until the next inspection of the component.
  • the opened holes resulting from the breaking or loss of the TBC at the regions of reduced thickness will act as a cooling opening, without affecting the structural integrity of the blade.
  • a component for a turbomachine includes a base component and a thermal barrier coating (hereinafter referred to as, TBC).
  • the base component includes an outer wall surrounding a volume and a cooling arrangement.
  • the outer wall has an external surface and an internal surface.
  • the internal surface adjoins at least a part of the volume and at least a section of the cooling arrangement is located in the volume, e.g. one of a plurality of cooling channels of the cooling arrangement which are used for guiding a cooling fluid.
  • the TBC covers at least a part of the external surface of the outer wall.
  • the TBC has an outer surface, an inner surface facing the external surface of the outer wall, and a plurality of thicknesses.
  • the TBC includes first regions with at least one first coating thickness and second regions at defined locations of the TBC with at least one second coating thickness.
  • the second coating thickness is less than the first coating thickness.
  • Each second region is surrounded by at least one of the first regions.
  • the term "surrounded" includes an arrangement in which the second region is arranged in between two first regions, i.e. those first regions are arranged on either side of the particular second region. For example, this scenario might occur in case the second region comprises a lengthy slot, as will be described later, and the two first regions are located on both sides of the lengthy slot.
  • the inner surface of the TBC is fluidly connected to the cooling arrangement at least at the locations of the second regions.
  • the TBC will break first at the second region generating a break or space or crack in the TBC which will be in fluid communication with the cooling arrangement of the base component and thus initiating a flow of the cooling fluid from the cooling arrangement through the break in TBC and into a region in and around the TBC damage.
  • the cooling fluid is enabled to stream through the break in the TBC to achieve a film cooling effect in the regions of the TBC surrounding the break. This film cooling effect protects the component and the TBC surrounding the break against further melting such that a longer life time is achieved despite the loss of TBC.
  • the cooling arrangement further comprises at least one cooling hole fluidly connecting the inner surface of the TBC to the cooling channel.
  • the cooling hole has an inlet located at the internal surface of the outer wall and an outlet located at the external surface of the outer wall.
  • At least one of the second regions comprises a recess with a three dimensional shape. At least a part of the recess is located on the inner surface of the TBC such that the inner surface is fluidly connected to the cooling arrangement via the recess. Such a recess can be manufactured easily and it results in the reduced wall thickness in the second regions of the TBC.
  • the three dimensional shape of the recess is such that a diameter of the recess increases with a decreasing thickness of the TBC which might occur due to TBC spallation and/or erosion of the TBC and/or TBC melting.
  • a hole is generated that continues to increase in diameter with reduction in thickness of the TBC, allowing a stronger flow of the cooling fluid through the hole with increase in the TBC damage. This measure achieves in an increased cooling effect with gradually increasing damage of the TBC.
  • the recess has a star-shaped cross section in a direction of viewing perpendicular to the TBC. This increases the wetted surface in the recess and the hole, respectively, so that a stronger heat transfer can be achieved.
  • the three dimensional shape is a lengthy slot with an extension in a first direction along the TBC being significantly larger than the extensions in the other directions.
  • the term "significantly" refers to dimensions of the extension in the first direction which are larger than the other two dimensions by a factor of 3 or more.
  • the extension in the first direction might be such that the one or more of the lengthy slots forms a closed loop around the circumference of the component.
  • the three dimensional shape is a conic shape, a pyramidal shape, or a half dome shape.

  • the three dimensional shape is a truncated shape with a first flat surface A at a base of the shape and a second flat surface B at a top of the shape, wherein an area of the second surface B at the top of the shape is lesser than an area of the first surface A at the base of the shape.
  • such shapes can be manufactured easily and they achieve that the diameter of the recess increases with a decreasing thickness of the TBC, resulting in an increased cooling effect with decreasing TBC thickness.
  • the three dimensional shape is cylinder or a box with at least two parallel surfaces A, B, wherein the three dimensional shape comprises a first flat surface A at a base of the shape and a second flat surface B at a top of the shape.
  • the corresponding recess would again be arranged such that the axis of symmetry of the cylinder is perpendicular to the TBC at the location of the recess.
  • the recess is oriented such that the first surface A of the shape is facing to the inner surface of the TBC and the second surface B is facing to the outer surface of the TBC.
  • the first surface A and the second surface B are essentially parallel to the TBC.
  • the base component typically comprises zones with different thermal loads, i.e. at least a zone with highest thermal load, a zone with medium thermal load, and a zone with lowest thermal load.
  • the second regions are located in the zone with highest thermal load. In that zone, the probability of damages is highest, so that the arrangement of the second regions in that zone guarantees the best protection with least efforts.
  • the base component comprises a leading edge zone and a trailing edge zone, and the second regions are located in the leading edge zone.
  • the base component is an airfoil of a blade or a vane.
  • a method for manufacturing a component for a turbomachine includes a step of providing an insert in a cooling hole of a base component.
  • the insert at least comprises a protrusion projecting outside the cooling hole and beyond an external surface of the base component.
  • the protrusion corresponds to a recess with a three dimensional shape to be generated on an inner surface of a TBC.
  • the method further includes a step of applying the TBC on the external surface of the base component with the insert, such that the protrusion of the insert is completely embedded in the TBC.
  • the method includes a step of removing the insert from the cooling hole of the base component such that the recess with the three dimensional shape is formed in the TBC.
  • the step of applying the TBC includes a step of applying a bond coat after providing the insert in the cooling hole of the base component and a step of applying a top coat after applying the bond coat.

  • the insert 90 at least includes a protrusion 92 projecting outside the cooling hole 74 and beyond an external surface 27 of the base component 20.
  • the protrusion 92 corresponds to a recess 73 with a three dimensional shape to be generated on an inner surface 66 of a TBC 60.
  • the base component 20, the cooling arrangement 60 with the cooling channel 51 and the cooling hole 74, the TBC 60 and the recess 73 are similar to as explained in reference to FIGs 1 to 15 while describing the component 1.
  • the insert 90 may be formed of a polymer or a metallic material.
  • the insert 90 may be completely formed before being provided or inserted into the cooling hole 74 or may be applied as a viscous fluid which solidifies inside the cooling hole 74 and thus gets formed.
  • the method 1000 further includes a step 550 of applying the TBC 60 on the external surface 27 of the base component 20 with the insert 90, such that the protrusion 92 of the insert 90 is completely embedded in the TBC 60.
  • FIG 18 schematically represents the protrusion 92 of the insert 90 embedded in the TBC 60 applied to the base component 20.
  • the step 550 of applying the TBC 60 includes a step 520 of applying a bond coat 61 after providing 500 the insert 90 in the cooling hole 74 of the base component 20 and a step 540 of applying a top coat 61 after applying 520 the bond coat 61.
  • the method 1000 includes a step 600 of removing the insert 90 from the cooling hole 74 of the base component 20 such that the recess 73 with the three dimensional shape is formed in the TBC 60.
  • FIG 19 schematically represents the recess 73 formed in the TBC 60 after removing the insert 90 as was depicted in FIGs 17 and 18 .
  • the insert 90 is removed either by directly physically removing the insert 90 in the same form as it was when it was provided into the cooling hole 74 in the step 500. This can be achieved by pulling out the insert 90 from the cooling hole 74.
  • the insert 90 may be removed by melting or vaporising of the insert 90 after the step 550 is performed.
