| Description | The High Speed Civil Transport (HSCT) mission of the High Speed Research-Enabling Propulsion Materials (HSR-EPM) Program represented a unique challenge for turbine airfoil materials because the highest operating temperatures occur during climb and supersonic cruise. The accumulated hot time of an HSCT engine before overhaul is many thousands of hours. This is significantly different from subsonic engines, where the maximum operating temperatures occur during takeoff and thrust reverse after landing, and the accumulated hot time before overhaul is about 300 hr. The goal of airfoil alloy development under the HSR-EPM Program was to develop an alloy with a 75 F increase in creep rupture capability over the average Rene N5/PWA 1484 baseline. Airfoil alloy development under the HSR-EPM Program pursued a path that led to evolutionary mechanical behavior improvements, resulting from increased amounts of high density, refractory metals. The purpose of the present paper is to describe the experimental work that was performed at NASA Glenn Research Center after the HSR-EPM Program ended. Emphasis will be placed on the creep behavior of coated specimens, as well as on the development and progression of phase instabilities during creep deformation. Mitigation techniques that were used to reduce phase instabilities are also discussed. Most of the work described in this report was performed at NASA Glenn during the years 2000 and 2001. |
