Definitions
- the invention relates to a manufacturing method applicable in particular to turbine rings composed of a ceramic element integrated into an annular metal support.
- FR -A-2 371 575 thus describes a turbine ring in which a ceramic ring is formed by the juxtaposition of segments.
- This type of solution requires a relatively complicated and costly method of manufacture and assembly. Furthermore, the inevitable discontinuities, at the level of the coupled edges of the segments, are detrimental to good gas flow.
- An improvement described by FR-A-2 540 938 provides for elastic fixing of the ceramic segments to a ring by a screw whose head transmits to the segment an axial force which applies it against the ring.
- F R -A-2 559 634 plans to use a one-piece ceramic ring, which avoids some of the drawbacks mentioned above.
- the mounting method proposed in this case by means of an annular support of wound ceramic material, allows the compression of the ceramic ring to be prestressed, but is not however entirely satisfactory in all applications.
- a ceramic turbine ring makes it possible to avoid the drawbacks noted above and also avoids the use of an additional ring made of wound ceramic material, which makes this solution more complex and also requires the use of connecting means between the ceramic ring and its annular support, such as screws and inserts.
- the method according to the invention aims to produce a ceramic turbine ring integrated into an annular metal support.
- the first stage of the process consists of a molding operation in the form of a ceramic element such as 1 visible in FIGS. 1 and 2 representing a later stage of the process.
- This molding operation only uses known methods commonly used to obtain molded ceramic elements.
- This ceramic element 1 can constitute a continuous monobloc ring, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and it comprises on its external diameter and on its internal diameter pins 2 and 3 obtained during the molding operation.
- the ceramic elements obtained by molding can also be in the form of separate segments or blocks, capable of being assembled to form a ring. Such segments 1a are shown in FIG. 4.
- a ceramic element can be of the type shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 such as lb and have anchors such as 4 on the external diameter and possibly also on the sides of the ceramic element anchors such 5.
- These anchors 4 or 5 may or may not be annular and have any shape compatible with their method of obtaining by molding.
- These anchoring details can also be applied to the continuous ring of the type shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- This ceramic element 1 thus obtained and defined, in a ring or in segments, is then placed between an internal part 6 and an external part 7 of a tool 8 between which is formed an annular cavity 9, this tool 8 constituting a mold of casting.
- the pins 2 and 3 mentioned above are used for positioning and holding in place the ceramic element 1 in the annular cavity 9.
- a centrifugal casting operation is then carried out while respecting the precautions specific to this known casting method.
- the molten metal is introduced into the tool 8 which, during this time, is rotated about its axis.
- the annular cavity 9 is filled with molten metal and the tool 8 is kept in rotation until the metal solidifies completely.
- This finished part 10 shown in Figures 3 and 4 thus consists of a ceramic element 1 held inside a metal support 11 to which this ceramic element 1 adheres perfectly.
- the metal support 11 includes one, or more, flange (s) such as 12 used for assembling the part in the turbine (see FIG. 3).
- the metallic material exerts a compression of the ceramic element 1. It a compression prestress of the ceramic results which may be weak, or even cancel out in operation, when the ring is used after mounting on a turbine, but in no case does it appear any tensile force of the support metal on the ceramic, which would be seriously detrimental to good service performance of the ceramic element.
- a type of ceramic which is best suited to the conditions of use envisaged can be chosen for the manufacture of the ceramic element 1.
- a homogeneous or composite ceramic can be used.
- the pins 2 or 3 intended to hold the ceramic element 1 between the two parts 6 and 7 of the tool 8 before and during the metal casting operation can be replaced by attached spacers.
- the annular housing of the ceramic element 1 in the metal support 11 can have any shape of section, rectangular or trapezoidal or other.
- the annular part 10 obtained before mounting on a turbine can also be segmented by sawing.
