A laser-based system for single point high-temperature measurements of turbine engine component surfaces coated with thermographic phosphors is described. Decay lifetime calibration measurements obtained for Y2O3:Eu over the temperature range ∼530–1000°C are presented. Further, the results obtained from a coupon placed in the outlet gas flow of an atmospheric-combustor are described.

The increasing emphasis on engine durability requires that an analytical capability be acquired to assess engine component lives during the conceptual/preliminary design phases. A generalized methodology has been developed to provide a fundamental understanding of the impact of engine design decisions, material selections, and a detailed consideration of engine usage for critical gas turbine engine components.

Abstract Harvey HA-7146 is an alpha-beta type titanium-base bar and forging alloy developed to combine high temperature strength and stability with good forgability. It is recommended for aircraft gas turbine engine components due to its improved stress stability and creep resistance. It responds to an age hardening heat treatment. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as fracture toughness, creep, and fatigue. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Ti-39. Producer or source: Harvey Aluminum Company.
