Description
TURBOMACHINE BLADE WITH EROSION AND CORROSION PROTECTIVE COATING AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a turbomachine blade, in particular to a compressor blade for use in a gas turbine engine. The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a turbomachine blade, the method comprising the step of depositing a corrosion and erosion protective coating on the turbomachine blade body.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is known from the state of the art that turbomachine blades, in particular compressor blades, which are made of metallic material such as stainless steel, are susceptible to corrosion, in particular pitting corrosion.
Pitting corrosion is a form of localized corrosion that leads to the creation of small holes in the metallic material based on galvanic corrosion. As is known, pitting corrosion can be initiated by small surface defects such as scratches, holes or local changes of the composition of the material and it may be aggravated by salt deposits and humidity during operation or stand still of the turbine engine. Due to water droplets and particulate matter impacting on the leading edge area of compressor blades in a gas turbine pitting corrosion is a frequently occuring degradation mechanism for compressor blading.
Moreover, pitting corrosion is extremely insidious as it causes only little loss of ma- terial with small effects on the metal surface. However, it causes serious damages in the deep structure of the metal. When corrosion pits reach a certain depth, par-
ticularly in the leading edge area of the blade, they can lead to the formation of cracks, which may finally result in blade failure due to high cyclic fatigue (HCF).
In order to avoid pitting corrosion, it is known to deposit corrosion protective layers on the blade body material. In recent years, sacrificial slurry coatings have become rather popular for use as corrosion protective layers, in particular for use in the front stages in compressor blading. These coatings are sacrificial because they are attacked instead of the blading material. However, it has become apparent that even sacrificial slurry coatings are prone to degradation in highly erosive conditions as they typically can be found at the leading edges of compressor blades due to water droplets and particles that hit the blades very hard. Because of local loss of the coating's erosion resistant property, corrosion of the leading edge area may occur.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In light of the above, it is an object of the invention to suppress pitting corrosion of a turbomachine blade and to provide a turbomachine blade that has an improved corrosion and erosion protective coating to enable a longer working life of the blade. It is another object of the invention to provide a method of manufacturing such a turbomachine blade.
The afore-mentioned objects are achieved by a turbomachine blade as described in independent claim 1 and a method of manufacturing such a turbomachine blade according to claim 26, respectively. Preferred embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.
According to one aspect of the invention a turbomachine blade, which may be a compressor blade, comprises a blade body and a corrosion and erosion protective multilayered coating bonded to the blade body. The multilayered coating com-
prises an erosion resistant first layer and a sacrificial second layer with the latter one being provided in overlying relationship to the first one.
Preferably, the erosion resistant first layer is selected so as to provide erosion re- sistance against water droplets or particles impacting on it. In case the blade body is made of stainless steel, the first layer may be selected so as to provide stainless steel corrosion resistance as well.
According to a further aspect of the invention, the erosion resistant first layer is deposited so that it covers at least an corrosion (and erosion) critical area of the blade body such as a leading edge area of the blade. However, it may be preferred that the first layer exclusively covers the erosion critical area of the blade body and does not cover any area of the blade body not belonging to the erosion critical area.
Depending on the severity of the erosion attack, the first layer preferably covers an area of up to 30% of the chord length starting from the leading edge towards the suction and pressure sides of the blade that is to say towards the trailing edge of the blade. The first layer may cover an area of from 5 to 30% of the chord length starting from the leading edge towards the trailing edge. But it may also cover an area of up to 60% or more of the chord length starting from the leading edge towards the trailing edge in case of a stronger impact of particulate matter and water droplets.
The sacrificial second layer is deposited so that it covers the first layer at least totally. However, it may be preferred that the sacrificial second layer covers the blade body totally.
In the turbomachine blade of the present invention, it may be preferred that the first layer is sandwiched between the blade body and the second layer. Accordingly, the first layer is arranged so as to be an intermediate layer between the
blade body and the second layer in an adjacent relationship relative to the blade body and the second layer.
In the present invention, the first layer may have a layer thickness in the range of from 50 to 100 micrometer (μm) while the second layer may have a layer thickness in the range of from 50 to 100 micrometer (μm) resulting in a total protective coating thickness in the range of from 100 to 200 micrometer (μm) with a maximum total thickness of 200 micrometer (μm).
Preferably, the first layer is selected so as to be a braze tape or a foil containing a matrix of braze alloy with an erosion resistant filler material essentially consisting of abrasive particles. The braze alloy may be a Silver (Ag)-based alloy or an Aluminum (Al)-based alloy or any other suitable alloy. The erosion resistant filler may be selected so as to consist of one or more filler materials selected from the group consisting of AI2O3, WC, CrC or any other suitable erosion resistant material. The filler content may range from 60 to 90 Vol.-% of the first layer and sizes of the filler particles may range from 10 to 30 micrometer (μm).
In the present invention, a roughness of the first layer is made to be smaller than 2.3 micrometer (μm) depending on the first layer deposition technique.
Preferably, the first layer material is deposited using one or more deposition techniques selected from HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel)-spraying technique, tape/foil brazing technique, CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) technique and laser cladding technique. In case the first layer material consists of one or more materials selected from the group of stainless steel and nickel (Ni)-based alloys, the first layer material may be deposited using HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel)- spraying technique.
In the present invention, the second layer is preferably a sacrificial slurry coating. The sacrificial slurry coating may, for instance, consist of a closely packed alumi-
num-filled chromate/phophate basecoat that is sealed with a chemically inert chromate/phosphate topcoat on top of the basecoat. Preferably, a roughness of the sacrificial slurry coating is made to be smaller than 1.6 micrometer (μm) depending on the first layer deposition technique.
According to a further aspect of the invention, a method of manufacturing above- described turbomachine blade comprises the steps of:
- providing the blade body, followed by
- a two-step process of depositing the corrosion and erosion protective coating on the blade body, namely
- a first deposition step of depositing an erosion and corrosion resistant first layer in order to cover at least the corrosion critical area, in particular the leading edge area of the blade body, and a subsequent
- second deposition step of depositing a sacrificial second layer over the first layer in order to cover at least the first layer and preferably the whole blade body.
Deposition of the second layer may be effected using one or more standard spraying techniques. The first layer may be deposited on the base material by one of the two preferred following techniques selected from tape/foil brazing technique or HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel)-spraying technique. However other deposition techniques such as CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) technique or Laser Cladding technique may also be used. In case the first layer material consists of one or more materials selected from the group of stainless steel and nickel (Ni)-based alloys, the first layer material may be deposited using HVOF (High Velocity Oxy- gen Fuel)-spraying technique.
In a turbomachine blade having a blade body made of stainless steel, the first layer material may be deposited using tape/foil brazing technique. Upon doing so, brazing temperatures used may not exceed a tempering temperature of the stainless steel blade body material.
The above and still further objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent upon consideration of the following detailed description of an embodiment thereof.

FIG. 2 schematically depicts a method of manufacturing the compressor blade shown in FIG. 1.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AN EMBODIMENT
An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Reference is now made to FIG. 1 that shows a transversal sectional view of an embodiment of a compressor blade for a gas turbine which is provided with a corrosion protective coating according to the present invention.
A compressor blade 1 comprises a blade body (substrate) 2 that for instance is made of stainless steel. Due to its typical body shape, the blade body has a major bulged pressure side 7 (in FIG. 1 upper side) and a minor bulged suction side 6 (in FIG. 1 lower side) both of which are formed to converge in a dull leading edge 8 and an acute trailing edge 9 of the blade body 2. The outer surface 10 of the blade body 2 is covered with a corrosion and erosion protective bilayer coating 1 1 that is bonded thereto.
The bilayer coating 1 1 comprises a lower erosion resistant first layer 3 that is provided on the surface of blade body 2 and arranged in a leading edge area 5 surrounding the leading edge 8 on both the suction side 6 and the pressure side 7 of the blade body 2. The first layer 3 covers a covering area of up to 60% of the airfoil chord length starting from the leading edge 8 towards the trailing edge 9 of the blade body 2. In FIG. 1 , the airfoil chord length can be identified by the outer surface 10 of the blade body 2.
The erosion resistant first layer 3 material is selected so as to provide erosion re- sistance against water droplets or particles impacting on the leading edge 8 area 5. It is selected so as to provide stainless steel corrosion resistance of the blade body 2 as well.
To this end the first layer 3 is a braze tape or foil containing a matrix of braze alloy, such as a Silver (Ag)-based alloy or an Aluminium (Al)-based alloy, and an erosion resistant filler material, such as AI2O3, WC and CrC. The filler content ranges from 60 to 90 Vol.-% of the first layer 3 and sizes of the filler particles preferably range from 10 to 30 micrometers (μm). The layer thickness of the first layer 3 preferably ranges from 50 to 100 μm.
The bilayer coating 1 1 further comprises an upper sacrificial second layer 4 that covers (is deposited on) the first layer 3 and the remaining non-covered parts of the blade body 2 surface 10. The first layer 3 is sandwiched between the blade body 2 and the second layer 4. The second layer 4 is a sacrificial slurry coating that consists of a closely packed aluminum-filled chromate/phophate basecoat that is sealed with a chemically inert chromate/phosphate topcoat on top of the base- coat (both basecoat and topcoat are not further detailed in FIG. 1 ). The second layer 4 has a layer thickness ranging from 50 to 100 μm resulting in a total bilayer coating 1 1 thickness ranging from 100 to 200 μm.
Reference is now made to FIG. 2 that schematically depicts a method of manufacturing the compressor blade 1 shown in FIG. 1 , the method comprising two deposition steps for depositing the corrosion protective bilayer coating 1 1.
After a non-covered blade body 2 has been provided (step I), the erosion resistant first layer 3 is deposited on the surface (outer skin) 10 of the blade body 2 in the leading edge 8 area 5 (step II). In a further step, starting from a partly covered blade body 2 (step II), the sacrificial slurry second layer 4 is deposited on both the first layer 3 and the remaining non-covered portions of the blade body 2 surface 10 to thereby coat the whole blade body 2 (step III).
To deposit the first layer 3 on the base material tape/foil brazing technique or HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel)-spraying technique may be used. However other deposition techniques such as CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) technique or Laser Cladding technique may also be used. Deposition of the second layer may be effected using one or more standard spraying techniques. The deposition techniques may be selected so as to achieve a roughness of both the erosion resistant first layer 3 and sacrificial slurry second layer 4 of less than 2.3 μm.
As can be seen from the above, by bonding a corrosion protective bilayer coating 1 1 on the outer surface 10 of the blade body 2 the working life of the blade 1 can be increased significantly because of the provision of an increased local erosion and corrosion protection and the risk of premature failure due to pitting corrosion attack is reduced. The bilayer coating and the process for coating can be realized with low costs. By restricting the erosion resistant first layer 3 to the leading edge area 5 of the blade body 2 that is particularly endangered by early erosion, manufacturing costs and time can be reduced additionally. Compressor blades with a bilayer structure of the present invention are recondi- tionable.
