METHODS OF CLEANING A COMPONENT WITHIN A TURBINE ENGINE

A method of cleaning a component 127 within a turbine 10 that includes disassembling the turbine engine 10 to provide a flow path 137 to an interior passageway 136 of the component from an access point 138. The component 127 has coked hydrocarbons formed thereon. The method further includes discharg...

Zusammenfassung:	A method of cleaning a component 127 within a turbine 10 that includes disassembling the turbine engine 10 to provide a flow path 137 to an interior passageway 136 of the component from an access point 138. The component 127 has coked hydrocarbons formed thereon. The method further includes discharging a flow of cleaning solution towards the interior passageway 136 from the access point 138, wherein the cleaning solution is configured to remove the coked hydrocarbons from the component 127.
