Method for producing a protective layer for a rotor blade

a protective layer and rotor blade technology, which is applied in the direction of wind motor components, non-positive displacement fluid engines, liquid fuel engine components, etc., can solve the problems of limiting the life of the entire rotor blade, premature corrosion of the wear tip wall, and more susceptible to high thermal loading, so as to achieve good protection and simple workability and machinability.

Benefits of technology

The invention provides a new way to make a protective layer for a rotor blade that can make the blade last longer and keep it simple to insulate from heat.

Problems solved by technology

However, by being thinner, the wear tip wall is more susceptible to the high thermal loading due to the hot combustion gas.
This can lead to premature corrosion of the wear tip wall, limiting the life of the entire rotor blade.
However, such methods frequently require an additional adhesive layer for corresponding adhesive strength.

Embodiment Construction

[0029]In all figures, identical parts are given the same reference signs.

[0030]FIG. 1 shows the upper region of a rotor blade 1, the rotor blade tip 2, in profile according to the prior art. The rotor blade tip 2 is exposed to increased wear due to thermal expansion, rotation induced centrifugal forces and other influences. In order to avoid damage to the rotor blade tip 2 caused by contact with the adjacent internal wall (not shown) of a turbomachine, and to allow controlled abrasion, the rotor blade tip 2 has a wear tip wall 4. The wear tip wall 4 extends the outer profile of the rotor blade 1 radially and thus forms a recess 6 above the rotor blade tip 2.

[0031]This recess 6 is exposed to particular thermal and mechanical loads and should therefore be provided with a protective layer, as shown in the following figures.

[0032]A profile 8 is first introduced to the inside of the wear tip wall 4, i.e. into the recess 6, as shown in FIG. 2. This profile can be either cast directly or i...

Abstract

A method for producing a protective layer for a rotor blade of a turbomachine is proposed. The rotor blade has a wear cap wall that in relation to the axis of the turbomachine protrudes radially towards the exterior of the turbomachine beyond a body of the rotor blade. The method enables the entire rotor blade to have a comparatively long service life and at the same time allows the wear cap wall to be thermally insulated in an especially simple manner. For the purpose, a profile producing a positive fit effective in the radial direction is inserted in a radially located region of the wear cap wall, a slip containing metal powder and / or a ceramic slip is applied to the region and the slip in sintered.
