Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of precision casting of high-temperature alloy turbine blades, and in particular relates to a wax mold for controlling the loosening of a shroud of a directional / single crystal working blade with a shroud and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] As we all know, the working blades of low-pressure turbines of advanced aircraft engines and the working blades of power turbines of turboshaft and turboprop engines usually have a shroud structure to reduce air leakage at the tip of the blade, thereby reducing gas loss, improving turbine efficiency, and increasing power output. However, the appearance of the shroud structure will cause a sudden change in the cross-sectional area of the turbine working blades, making the temperature field change more complex during the directional solidification process, the mushy zone wider, and the interdendritic space at the shroud position difficult to be effectively compensated, resulting in a large amount of looseness on the shroud.
[0003] Porosity can easily cause stress concentration during the service of the blade, becoming a source of cracks, leading to premature failure of the blade, and thus endangering the service safety of the engine. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a shrouded turbine working blade that avoids looseness of the blade shroud and a preparation method thereof, so as to effectively control the looseness on the blade shroud. This is also a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the current manufacturing process of aircraft engine turbine working blades.
[0004] The invention patent with application publication number CN108176817A discloses a method for controlling the looseness of a slender, thin-walled, crowned equiaxed crystal casting turbine blade. The wax mold module includes a pouring cup, a runner connected to the pouring cup, and a center column tube. The runner includes a tenon end runner and a blade crown end runner. The tenon end runner is welded to the tenon inner gate of the blade. The blade crown end runner is welded to the blade crown inner gate. The wax mold module is combined in a circular module or a straight plate module. The wax mold module is coated with refractory material, dewaxed after drying, and a mold shell is obtained after pre-baking. Insulation cotton is wrapped on the mold shell except for the middle section of the blade body. The length of the middle section of the blade body is 1 / 3 of the length of the blade body. The mold shell wrapped with insulation cotton is baked and remelted and poured to obtain a blade casting. This technical solution is mainly used to control the looseness of the blade body of the turbine blade, but it cannot avoid the looseness of the blade crown of the turbine blade.
[0005] The invention patent with application publication number CN101934366A discloses a solidified material, casting mold and shrinkage compensation method for a turbine blade with crown directionally crystallized. In the shrinkage compensation method, by setting a side subsidy next to the highest point of the lower crown of the blade, and setting a crown shrinkage compensation riser on the side subsidy and the top of the lower crown, the lower crown of the blade can be compensated during the precision casting process; by setting the sprue of the blade on the upper crown, and connecting the top of the sprue to the upper circular plate, the upper crown can be compensated. For the lower crown, this technical solution only sets a side subsidy next to the highest point of the lower crown, which makes it difficult to achieve complete or sufficient shrinkage compensation; for the upper crown, the sprue is directly set on the upper crown, which is easily impacted by molten metal during casting, affecting the shrinkage compensation effect.
