- In a conventional method, when a part having a complex structure such as a gas turbine cooling part is manufactured, it is often manufactured using very difficult machining. For example, at present, some of heat shield panels used in a combustor liner of a gas turbine employ a transpiration cooling structure in which complex cooling pores must be machined and parts must be joined to each other by a complex manner. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, there is, for example, a transpiration cooling structure composed of a
low temperature layer 10, anintermediate temperature layer 12, and ahigh temperature layer 14 as an example of the heat shield panel used at present. Since the panel having this structure requires complex machining and the parts thereof must be divided, a manufacturing process of the panel is complex and the cost thereof is expensive. Although there is an effusion cooling panel having vertical pores or oblique pores as another example, this panel also requires complex processing and is expensive. - Further, as a recent manufacturing technology of a metal and the like having open pores and/or closed pores, there are a method of manufacturing a porous structural member having predetermined directionality by dissolving a gas in a molten metal under a pressure atmosphere and discharging the gas into a solid phase when the molten metal is solidified and a method of manufacturing a porous structural member having a predetermined sheet-shape or rod-shape by continuous casting. In manufacturing a porous metal, a pore growing direction can be controlled by controlling the growing direction of a solid-liquid interface (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2000-104130).

- (1) Since a gas turbine part, for example, a cooling structure part such as a combustor liner, a turbine shroud, an exhaust duct, and the like of a gas turbine must be formed in a complex shape, they are heretofore manufactured by very difficult machining in the conventional technology. On the other hand, in the present invention, the gas turbine part having a complex shape such as a panel having oblique pores can be manufactured only by the simple casting and forming processes by controlling the angle of the solid-liquid interface in solidification with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface which is the determination factor of the pore growing direction. Further, at the time, the desired cooling performance and the desired heat insulating performance can be realized by controlling the pore diameter and the porosity by controlling the atmospheric gas pressure and the solidifying speed.
- (2) As an example, a transpiration cooling structure, which requires a complex machining for creating cooling pores and a process for joining parts by a complex manner, is heretofore used in some of heat shield panels used in a combustor for the gas turbine. However, a part manufacturing method, which can greatly simplify processing steps and can easily process a part at a low cost, can be realized by the present invention. Further, any of effusion cooling panels having vertical or oblique pores can be manufactured at a low cost using simple processing by controlling the solid-liquid interface according to the present invention.
- The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view (a) and side views (b), (c) and (d) for explaining the concept of a technology for manufacturing a flat sheet composed of a lotus type porous metal by solidifying a molten region which is generated and continuously moved in one direction using a high frequency coil in an embodiment of the present invention;
- FIG. 2 shows a conceptual side sectional view (a) of an example of a metal sheet member composed of the lotus type porous metal and a conceptual side sectional side view (b) of an oblique pore panel obtained from the metal sheet member obtained by the embodiment of the present invention;
- FIG. 3A shows a conceptual vertical sectional view for explaining an inside cooled cast molding of an embodiment of the present invention;
- FIG. 3B shows a conceptual vertical sectional view for explaining the inside cooled cast molding of the embodiment in which the level of molten metal is higher than that shown in FIG. 3A;
- FIG. 4 shows a conceptual perspective view of an example of a heat shield panel using a lotus type porous metal having oblique pores obtained by the embodiment of the present invention;
- FIG. 5 is a schematic side elevational view for explaining a cooling mechanism of a heat shield panel composed of a porous material;
- FIG. 6 shows a perspective view (a) for explaining an example of a conventional heat shield panel and an exploded view (b) of the same; and
- FIG. 7 is an enlarged view for explaining an example of the conventional heat shield panel.
- Although an embodiment of the present invention will be described below, the invention is by no means limited to the embodiment, and it is possible to embody the invention by appropriately modifying the embodiment. That is, in the embodiment, although the manufacture of a heat shield panel having oblique pores and used in a combustor of a gas turbine is described as an example, the present invention is not limited to the heat shield panel and can be also applied to other heat insulation (heat shield) structure, forced cooling structure, and the like used in the gas turbine and the like. Note that it is contemplated that a merit of providing a practical alloy with a lotus structure mainly resides in that the number of parts and a processing cost of a complex engine structure can be reduced, the reliability of the engine can be improved by the simplified structure of the engine, and the like, and by making use of the alloy as a heat insulation structure or as a forced cooling structure (lotus pores are used as cooling paths of a sweat cooling structure, a film cooling structure, and the like).
- A combustor liner for an aircraft engine, for example, may be locally exposed to combustion gases having a temperature exceeding 2000° C. In this environment, there is a case that a thermal gradient is locally produced in the liner and thus a large amount of thermal stress acts on the liner in a circumferential direction so that the liner is finally broken. Therefore, it is important to examine a method of effectively cooling or thermally insulating the liner in order to cool it with a minimum amount of cooling air while reducing the stress and to secure a large amount of combustion air.
- It is contemplated to dispose a plurality of heat resistant panels adjacent to each other inward of the liner in a circumferential direction and in an axial direction and to protect the liner from a severe temperature environment as a means for reducing the thermal stress. In the thermal stress reduction means composed of only a continuous liner, when the liner is partly damaged, the overall liner must be replaced. In contrast, the panel structure described above is also advantageous in maintenance because only a damaged panel may be replaced. It is contemplated as effective to attach the lotus type porous metal on the inside of the liner as a panel also when a lotus type porous metal is used as a cooling/heat insulating member of the combustor liner.
- In this embodiment, a metal as a raw material is melted under pressurization of an atmospheric gas, a gas is dissolved in the metal in a molten state, and then the metal is solidified, thereby a member composed of a porous metal having thus created pores is manufactured.
- At the time, a pore growing direction can be controlled so as to satisfy a required performance by controlling the angle of a solid-liquid interface in solidification with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface, which is a determination factor of the pore growing direction.
- Further, a pore diameter and a porosity can be controlled by controlling the atmospheric gas pressure, a solidifying speed, and the like.
- For example, solidification at a higher speed generates a lot of finer gas bubbles, solidification at a constant speed generates uniform and thin pores, and cooling at a slow speed generates thick pores.
- In addition to the above, an amount of a dissolved gas varies depending on a type of a metal (alloy), a melting temperature, and a melting time as well as a type of the gas and a gas pressure, and a cooling speed varies depending on a cooling method, the type of the metal (thermal conductivity). Accordingly, the size and the distribution of the pores can be adjusted by controlling these conditions.
- As an example, as shown in FIG. 1(a), (b), (c) and (d) when a
sheet member 16 composed of a metal is heated by ahigh frequency coil 18 for flat sheet under pressurization of an atmospheric gas and a molten region partially formed at the time is continuously moved, e.g., at a constant speed, and cooled byblowers 17 and the like, the solid-liquid interface with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface can be made oblique by cooling both the sides of the sheet in a different degree of cooling, respectively. - This is made, for example, (1) by cooling the sheet at a different position as shown in FIG. 1(b), or (2) by cooling the sheet in a different degree of cooling at the same position as shown in FIG. 1(c). FIG. 1 shows a case that the molten metal is solidified in one direction using the high frequency coil by continuously moving the molten region. A heater and the like may be used in placed of the high frequency coil.
- Although FIG. 1 conceptually shows an arrangement for solidifying the molten metal in the one direction, an apparatus used in FIG. 1 can be composed of, for example, a heating chamber, a solidification adjustment chamber, a solidification chamber, and the like each having a pressure control system.
- In the apparatus, a gas is dissolved in the molten metal using a hydrogen gas, a nitrogen gas, and the like, and the gas is discharged into a solid phase when the molten metal is solidified. Thereby, a porous structural member having predetermined directionality can be manufactured or a porous structural member having a predetermined sheet shape or rod shape can be manufactured by continuous casting.
- Incidentally, a melted portion of the
sheet member 16 maintains its plate shape due to the surface tension thereof. Preferably, thesheet member 16 is heated and melted such that both right and left ends in the width direction of thesheet member 16 maintain their solid condition without being melted. - As described above, when the lotus type porous metal is manufactured, the porosity, the pore diameter, the pore growing direction, and the like can be controlled by controlling the atmospheric gas pressure, the solidifying speed, the solidifying direction, and the like.
- When casting is executed under the atmospheric gas pressure by controlling directionality, a
sheet member 20, which is composed of the lotus type porous metal havingoblique pores 22, as shown in, for example, the side sectional views (a) and (b) of FIG. 2, that satisfies the required performance, can be obtained by controlling the angle of the solid-liquid interface in solidification with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface, which is the determination factor of the pore growing direction, so that the solid-liquid interface is made oblique with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface. - The following methods are exemplified as a specific method of controlling the angle of the solid-liquid interface in solidification with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface. That is, when the
sheet member 16 is heated by a heater, ahigh frequency coil 18, and the like under pressurization of an atmospheric gas and a molten region formed at the time is moved and cooled by ablower 17 and the like, the solid-liquid interface is made oblique with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface. - This is made (1) by cooling both the sides of the
sheet 16 in a different degree of cooling, respectively (by, for example, cooling thesheet 16 at a different position as shown in FIG. 1(b) or cooling thesheet 16 in a different degree of cooling as shown in FIG. 1(C) as explained above), and (2) by drawing out the sheet member obliquely with respect to the heater and thehigh frequency coil 18 as shown in FIG. 1(d), and (3) when a sheet is cast using an inside cooled cast mold capable of obtaining a sheet-shaped cast member under pressurization of an atmospheric gas, as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the solid-liquid interface is made oblique with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface by cooling both the sides of the sheet in a different degree of cooling, respectively (by executing, for example, a control by the flow rate of a coolant or a control by a cooling mechanism), and the like. - Since the solidification of the lotus type porous metal may be finished before pores are formed on the uppermost surface portion thereof, the portion must be removed. However, when the
sheet member 20 obtained as described above is sliced to a predetermined thickness so that thepores 22 form through pores, anoblique pore panel 24, which can be used as a heat shield panel, can be manufactured. - As described above, it is possible to manufacture a panel having oblique pores only by the simple casting and forming processes. Further, it is possible to control factors such as a cooling pore diameter, the distribution of cooling pores, and a cooling pore direction can be controlled so that they satisfy the required performance by executing the casting while controlling directionality and the like under the atmospheric gas pressure.
- FIG. 4 conceptually shows an example of a heat shield panel using the lotus type porous metal having the oblique pores. An
oblique pore panel 26 has a plurality ofpores 28 which linearly pass through theoblique pore panel 26 in an oblique direction with respect to the thickness direction thereof. As described above, in the method of manufacturing the lotus type porous metal, the panel having the oblique pores can be manufactured only by the simple casting and forming processes by controlling the angle of the solid-liquid interface in solidification with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface, which is the determination factor of the pore growing direction, so that the solid-liquid interface is made oblique with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface. - A specific method of controlling the angle of the solid-liquid interface with respect to the plane perpendicular to the traveling direction of the solid-liquid interface is described above. Further, at the time, a predetermined cooling performance and a predetermined heat insulating performance can be realized by controlling the pore diameter and the porosity by controlling the atmospheric gas pressure and the solidifying speed. For example, a pore angle, a pore diameter, a pore pitch, a pore aspect ratio, and the like can be controlled in the structure shown in FIG. 4, thereby a desired cooling performance and a desired heat insulating performance can be realized.
- FIG. 5 schematically shows a cooling mechanism of a heat shield panel composed of a porous material. The lotus type porous metal is used as a cooling structure and a heat insulating structure, in which lotus pores are used as a heat insulating structure, and as a forced cooling structure (in which the lotus pores are used as cooling paths of a sweat cooling structure, a film cooling structure, and the like). As shown in FIG. 5, however, in a
heat shield panel 30 of the embodiment, pores 32 are used as cooling pores, and a heat transmission surface, which is exposed to high temperature main flow gases, is effectively cooled by a film cooling effect which is achieved by inside pore surfaces cooled by heat transmission by convection and a cooling medium blown out through the pores. Effects obtained by forming a lot of oblique pores are, for example, an increase in a heat transmission area, an improvement of a heat transmission rate, an increase in the film cooling effect, and an increase in a panel passing resistance. - In the present invention, the direction, the size, the porosity, the structure, and the like of the pores of the lotus type porous metal can be appropriately determined by controlling parameters such as a melting temperature, a dissolving gas pressure, a solidifying gas pressure, a cooling temperature, a solidification cooling temperature, and the volume ratio and the pressure of a hydrogen gas and the like and an inert gas.
