Component repair using brazed surface textured superalloy foil

A superalloy component such as a gas turbine engine blade (40) having a ceramic thermal barrier coating (41) is repaired using a textured repair foil (30). A degraded region of the thermal barrier coating is removed (14) and the underlying superalloy material surface is prepared (16) for re-coating....

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A superalloy component such as a gas turbine engine blade (40) having a ceramic thermal barrier coating (41) is repaired using a textured repair foil (30). A degraded region of the thermal barrier coating is removed (14) and the underlying superalloy material surface is prepared (16) for re-coating. The repair foil is includes a layer of boron-free braze material (34) and a layer of superalloy material (32) having a textured surface (36). The foil is brazed (18) to the prepared surface during a solution heat treatment effective to homogenize the braze (20). A new area of thermal barrier coating (46) is applied over the foil with a bond that is enhanced by the texturing of the foil surface.
