Using plasma movement Characteristic arc welding, the fixed shroud of the mannered null gas turbine engine which repairs

摘要

A stationary shroud of a gas turbine engine made of a base metal is repaired by removing any damaged material from a flow-path region of the stationary shroud to leave an initially exposed base-metal flow-path surface; and applying a base-metal restoration overlying the initially exposed flow-path surface. The base-metal restoration is applied by furnishing a source of a structural material that is compatible with the base metal, and depositing the source of the structural material overlying the initially exposed base-metal flow-path surface of the stationary shroud by plasma transferred arc welding to form a repaired base-metal flow-path surface. An environmentally resistant rub coating may be applied overlying the base-metal restoration.
