Repaired Turbine Nozzle

View page
US Patent:
7484928, Feb 3, 2009
Filed:
Mar 21, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/723739
Inventors:
Brian Peter Arness - Simpsonville SC, US
Graham David Sherlock - Greenville SC, US
Joseph Leonard Moroso - Greenville SC, US
Stewart William Beitz - Greenville SC, US
Graydon Wayne Peters - Humble TX, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
F01D 9/02
US Classification:
415115
Abstract:
A trailing edge coupon for the trailing edge of a airfoil of a turbine nozzle segment is welded to an airfoil section of the nozzle segment having a damaged trailing edge portion removed. The coupon includes film cooling holes spaced one from the other along a pressure side wall portion of the coupon and a plurality of radially spaced openings along the trailing edge. By welding the pressure and suction side edges of the coupon to the pressure and side edges of the remaining portion of the airfoil, the operating life of the nozzle is extended.

The system may also include a plurality of bypass plugs, wherein each of the plurality of bypass plugs is insertable into a bypass chamber opening on each of the plurality of bypass chambers.

Method Of Replacing A Composite Airfoil

View page
US Patent:
8146250, Apr 3, 2012
Filed:
May 30, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/129930
Inventors:
Joseph L. Moroso - Greenville SC, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
B23P 6/00
B29C 73/00
B29C 45/14
US Classification:
298891, 2988971, 2940201, 2940218, 264 361, 264139, 264279
Abstract:
A method of replacing a portion of a composite airfoil in a turbine. The method comprises the steps of providing a turbine with a plurality of composite airfoils mounted on a wheel. At least one of the composite airfoils has a core made of a non-plastic material and a plastic airfoil portion to envelope at least a portion of the core. A composite airfoil having an airfoil portion in need of replacement is accessed. The plastic airfoil portion is removed to expose the core while the core is mounted on the wheel. A plastic airfoil portion is molded to envelope the core while the core is mounted on the wheel.

US Patent:
20050235492, Oct 27, 2005
Filed:
Apr 22, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/829281
Inventors:
Brian Arness - Simpsonville SC, US
Graham Sherlock - Greenville SC, US
Joseph Moroso - Greenville SC, US
Stewart Beitz - Greenville SC, US
Graydon Peters - Humble TX, US
International Classification:
B63H001/16
F03B003/12
US Classification:
029889100, 029402080
Abstract:
A trailing edge coupon for the trailing edge of a airfoil of a turbine nozzle segment is welded to an airfoil section of the nozzle segment having a damaged trailing edge portion removed. The coupon includes film cooling holes spaced one from the other along a pressure side wall portion of the coupon and a plurality of radially spaced openings along the trailing edge. By welding the pressure and suction side edges of the coupon to the pressure and side edges of the remaining portion of the airfoil, the operating life of the nozzle is extended.
