Abstract

754,217. Turbine blades. GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. Jan. 18 1954 [Jan. 30, 1953], No. 1375/54. Class 110(3) [Also in Group XXII] A turbine blade or nozzle guide vane comprises two halves formed by casting the two halves each having an outer surface forming one side of the aerofoil and root profile and an inner surface having grooves, the two halves being joined together along a spanwise junction surface by a metal fusion process, the grooves forming spanwise cooling passages in the aerofoil portion and duct means in the root by which cooling fluid is supplied to the passages. In Figs. 1 and 5 the turbine rotor blade comprises two halves 17, 18, the abutting surfaces 19 of which are formed with longitudinal grooves. 22, 23 adjacent the leading and trailing edges, and grooves 24 therebetween, which grooves upon assembly form closed passages. The root portion of the blade is formed with passages 31, 33, 34 which communicate with the longitudinal passages 22, 23, 24 so that cooling fluid such as air supplied through the passage 32 in the rotor can flow through the blade and discharge at the tip. The ribs 26 between the grooves provide a large heat exchange surface. The abutting surfaces are connected by brazing. In a second embodiment. Figs. 6 and 10 the two blade halves do not abut face to face but a metal sheet 38 is interposed therebetween and is bonded to each of the blade halves. Also. the larger grooves 22, 23 are omitted. The grooves 24<SP>1</SP> extend from the blade root to the tip. but the grooves 37 extend only to an intermediate point along the blade. The sheet 38 is cut away towards the tip of the trailing edge so that a narrow space is formed into which the grooves 37 discharge. Cooling air is supplied as in the first embodiment.
