Method of forming cooling holes

A method of forming cooling holes (20) in a gas turbine engine component (10). The method includes the steps of forming a hole (20) in the component (10) extending between a first surface (22) of the component (10) and a second surface (24) of the component (10) opposite the first surface (22) and s...

Zusammenfassung:A method of forming cooling holes (20) in a gas turbine engine component (10). The method includes the steps of forming a hole (20) in the component (10) extending between a first surface (22) of the component (10) and a second surface (24) of the component (10) opposite the first surface (22) and supplying pressurized air to the hole (20) from the second surface (24) of the component (10). The method also includes the step of sensing a parameter representative of air flow through the hole (20). Further, the method includes enlarging the hole (20) until the sensed parameter represents a preselected air flow rate through the hole (20).
