Selective aluminum coating on gas turbine blade cooling pass inner surfaces improves oxidation resistance while maintaining fatigue strength.
Segmented plenum chambers distribute cooling media through staggered passages, resolving uneven cooling caused by trench erosion and streaming.
Pt and Ir enriched bond coats form dense oxide scales that suppress secondary reaction zones at the substrate interface, extending turbine blade life.
A nickel-based wrought superalloy with optimized Al, Ti, Nb, W, and Mo content achieves high strength at 800°C through precipitation and solid solution strengthening.
