The performance of Superalloys
Source abstract
Abstract
Hot‐end components in today's aero turbofan engines are made from materials known as superalloys, typically based on NiCr, NiCrFe or CoCr systems. In the fifty years or so that have elapsed since the first superalloys were introduced, the temperature capability of the materials has increased by approximately 500° and the power output of aero gas turbines has risen from ∼︁ 20 kN of thrust to the 250 kN achievable today. The materials and their development are described.
