| 20090130446 | HIGH TEMPERATURE REFRACTORY COATINGS FOR CERAMIC SUBSTRATES - A composite article includes a substrate and a protective layer on the substrate. The protective layer includes a non-oxide ceramic matrix and a refractory phase within the non-oxide ceramic matrix. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20100242437 | FUEL-COOLED FLEXIBLE HEAT EXCHANGER WITH THERMOELECTRIC DEVICE COMPRESSION - An apparatus includes a thermoelectric (TE) device, a gas flow conduit proximate to one side of the thermoelectric device, a plurality of flexible tubes proximate to a second side of the thermoelectric device, and a spring to control contact force between the flexible tubes and the thermoelectric device. The spring comprises a coil spring at least partially circumscribing the gas flow conduit. The thermoelectric device converts a temperature differential between the flexible tubes and the gas flow conduit into electrical energy. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100242486 | FUEL-COOLED HEAT EXCHANGER WITH THERMOELECTRIC DEVICE COMPRESSION - An apparatus includes an inlet conduit assembly surrounding a gas flow path and a combustor arranged downstream of the inlet conduit assembly. The inlet conduit assembly includes a thermoelectric (TE) device configured to convert heat into electrical energy, a gas flow conduit arranged between the gas flow path and the TE device, and a resilient member configured to bias the TE device into contact with the gas flow conduit. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100257864 | REVERSE FLOW CERAMIC MATRIX COMPOSITE COMBUSTOR - A gas turbine engine has an annular reverse-flow combustor with a combustor inner liner enclosing a combustion chamber. The inner liner having a dome portion at an upstream end of the combustor and a downstream combustor exit defined between a small exit duct portion and a large exit duct portion. At least one of the dome portion, the small exit duct portion and the large exit duct portion is made of a separately formed hemi-toroidal shell composed of a ceramic matrix composite. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20110200759 | OXIDATION RESISTANT COATINGS, PROCESSES FOR COATING ARTICLES, AND THEIR COATED ARTICLES - A process for applying an oxidation resistant coating to an article includes the steps of mixing at least about 10% by volume to up to about 99% by volume of a slurry at least one silica based material having a viscosity of about 1×10 | 08-18-2011 |
| 20110219775 | HIGH TOLERANCE CONTROLLED SURFACE FOR CERAMIC MATRIX COMPOSITE COMPONENT - A ceramic matrix composite (CMC) component includes a hardenable material that can be machined to provide a desired dimension and surface finish. | 09-15-2011 |
