Abstract

A method for producing a coated turbine blade, with which the frequency property thereof can be particularly easily adjusted to the required boundary conditions is provided. Recesses are introduced into a blade tip of the blade leaf of the turbine blade after coating of turbine blade. In one aspect a plurality of bores are made which are distributed along the blade leaf center line.

Claims (24)

1. A method for the production of a coated turbine moving blade, comprising:

coating a turbine moving blade with a protective layer; and

introducing a plurality of recesses into a blade tip of a blade leaf of the turbine moving blade, wherein the number and depth of the recesses are configured to compensate a shift in characteristic frequency of the turbine moving blade produced by a mass of the protective layer,

wherein the introduction of the plurality of recesses occurs after the coating of the turbine moving blade,

wherein each of the plurality of recesses is a hole which is drilled into the blade tip in a direction of a blade foot of the turbine moving blade, and

wherein the plurality of recesses are distributed along a center line of the blade leaf, the center line running centrally from a leading edge to a trailing edge of the blade leaf.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising superficially closing the drilled recesses.

3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the plurality of recesses are closed using a plug or solder, whereby each recess is partially filled up leaving a cavity.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a drill depth is to 50% of a radial extent of the blade leaf with respect to an installation position of the turbine moving blade.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein prior to the step of coating, an existing coating is removed from the turbine moving blade.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the protective layer comprises a corrosion protection layer and/or a heat insulation layer.

7. A method for the production of a coated turbine moving blade, comprising:

coating a turbine moving blade with a protective layer; and

introducing a plurality of recesses into a blade tip of a blade leaf of the turbine moving blade, wherein the number and depth of the recesses are configured to compensate a shift in characteristic frequency of the turbine moving blade produced by a mass of the protective layer,

wherein the introduction of the plurality of recesses occurs after the coating of the turbine moving blade,

wherein each of the plurality of recesses is a hole which is drilled into the blade tip in a direction of a blade foot of the turbine moving blade, and

wherein the plurality of recesses are distributed laterally with respect to a center line of the blade leaf, the center line running centrally from a leading edge to a trailing edge of the blade leaf.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , further comprising superficially closing the drilled recesses.

9. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the plurality of recesses are closed using a plug or solder, whereby each recess is partially filled up leaving a cavity.

10. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the method is performed on a turbine moving blade having an internally coolable blade leaf.

11. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the plurality of recesses are made in a region of a trailing edge of the turbine moving blade where a suction-side pressure wall meets a delivery-side pressure wall.

12. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein a drill depth is to 50% of a radial extent of the blade leaf with respect to an installation position of the turbine moving blade.

13. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein prior to the step of coating, an existing coating is removed from the turbine moving blade.

14. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the protective layer comprises a corrosion protection layer and/or a heat insulation layer.
