TAPERED THERMAL BARRIER COATING ON CONVEX AND CONCAVE TRAILING EDGE SURFACES

A turbine engine component has an airfoil portion having a pressure side, a suction side, and a trailing edge. The trailing edge has a center discharge cooling circuit, which center discharge cooling circuit has an exit defined by a concave surface on the pressure side of the airfoil portion and a c...

Zusammenfassung:A turbine engine component has an airfoil portion having a pressure side, a suction side, and a trailing edge. The trailing edge has a center discharge cooling circuit, which center discharge cooling circuit has an exit defined by a concave surface on the pressure side of the airfoil portion and a convex surface on the suction side of the airfoil portion. The airfoil portion has a thermal barrier coating on the pressure side and the suction side. The thermal barrier coating on the convex surface tapers to zero in thickness at a point spaced from the trailing edge so as to leave an uncoated portion on the convex surface.
