Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a turbine component such as, for example, turbine rotor blades and stator vanes, and to a cooling concept useable in such components for cooling pur poses.
  • the present invention further relates to a method for manufacturing such a component.
  • High temperature turbines may include hollow blades or vanes incorporating cooling channels, inserts and pedestals or other features for cooling purposes.
  • Internal cooling is designed to provide efficient transfer of heat between the gas washed surface and the flow of cooling air within. As heat transfer efficiency improves, for exam ple, less cooling air may be necessary to adequately cool the aerofoils. Internal cooling typically includes structures to improve heat transfer efficiency including, for example, im pingement tubes or pedestals (also known as pin fins) . Moreo ver, the heat load acting on the aerofoil can be further re depictd by adding a thermal barrier coating (TBC) on the outer most surface of the aerofoil being directly exposed to the hot gas path during operation of the turbine.
  • TBC thermal barrier coating
  • the demand in regard to cycle effi ciency is high. This results in the need to operate the tur bines with even higher temperatures as today. Thus, solutions are needed that provide more efficient cooling concepts for turbine blades or vanes.
  • airfoils of turbine blades can comprise an internal load car rying structure surrounded a porous layer with open porosity, which again is covered by a thermal barrier coating.
  • the load carrying structure comprises supply openings that allows cooling air to enter the porous layer. Further, near to these supply openings exit holes are distributed in the thermal barrier coating for exiting the cooling air into hot gas.
  • an advan tageous turbine component such as, for example, a turbine ro tor blade and a stator vane with which the above-mentioned shortcomings can be mitigated, and especially, a high cooling efficiency can be realised and thus, for example, a more aer odynamic efficient component can be provided.
  • the present invention provides a turbine compo nent comprising a base body having at least one cavity providing a flow path for a cooling medium and at least one wall at least partially surrounding the at least one cavity and wherein the at least one wall has an inner surface being oriented towards the at least one cavity and an outer surface being oriented opposed to the inner surface of the at least one wall, wherein the at least one turbine component further comprises at least one layer of porous material and at least one thermal barrier coating, wherein the at least one layer of porous material is arranged on the outer surface of the at least one wall of the base body and the thermal barrier coat ing is arranged at least partially on top of the at least one layer of porous material.
  • the cooling efficiency can be en hanced in comparison with state of the art systems. This will enhance a component life and thus will ensure a reliable op eration of a turbine engine comprising the inventive turbine component .
  • a porous materi al is a very efficient way of creating a heat sink. If this advantage can be combined with the heat flux reduction from the gas flow to the turbine component using a thermal barrier coating an extremely efficient convective cooling system can be designed. Moreover, the arrangement of the thermal barrier coating directly on top of the layer of porous material would arrange the cooling system as close to the heat load at/in the turbine component as possible and thus avoid transport of heat through material, which would create thermal gradients in the metal. Furthermore, this arrangement provides the pos sibility to clean out the excess powder remaining in the structure after a for example employed additive manufacturing process. This also improves the reliability in the manufac turing process.
  • thermodynamics of the cycle can be realized. Due to the saving of cooling medium, it is possible to achieve higher "mixed" temperatures using a lower temperature in the flame of the combustor. This, in turn, decreases the NO x emissions of the turbine.
  • a turbine component is intended to mean a component provided for a turbine, like a gas turbine, like, for example, an aer ofoil component embodied as a blade or vane or a part there of, like an aerofoil, a root portion or an inner or outer platform.

  • the turbine component as an aerofoil it may be a basically hollow aero foil, wherein a "basically hollow aerofoil" means an aerofoil with a casing, wherein the casing encases at least one cavi ty.
  • a structure like a rib, rail or partition, which divides different cavities in the aerofoil from one another and for example extends in a span wise direction of the aerofoil, does not hinder the definition of "a basically hollow aero foil".
  • the aerofoil is hollow.
  • a “base body” is intended to mean a structure that substantially imparts a shape and/or form of the turbine component or, for example, the aerofoil component.
  • the cavity may, for example, be the cavity or be at least one of the cavities in a - hollow - aerofoil or a channel (channel sys tem) for cooling medium in a root portion, a platform, a heatshield, a ring segment or a hot part.
