Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to high-reliability metal sealing materials used in sealing devices of turbines, in
particular, steam turbines of combined cycle power plants, conventional thermal power plants, atomic power plants and
the like. A turbine metal sealing material as described in the preamble portion of patent claim 1 is known, e.g., from WO
2005/014979 A1.

[0002] The work efficiency of a steam turbine used in a power generation plant is affected by an amount of a fluid that
rotates a turbine blade to generate a motive force (rotating torque); accordingly, performance of a sealing technology
that reduces an amount of a fluid leaking from a gap between a stator and a rotor of a turbine determines performance
of the turbine. The sealing technology is expected to have a function (abradability) by which even in the worst case
where the stator and the rotor come into contact, without damaging both the stator and rotor, only a sealing material is
scrubbed and reduced in thickness. Owing to the abradability of the sealing material disposed between the stator and
rotor, a gap between the stator and rotor can be reduced to zero without limit, and thereby an amount of a fluid leaking
from the gap can be neared zero; accordingly, the work efficiency of the turbine can be largely improved.
[0003] As to the sealing technology, in particular, a porous coating layer, for example, JP. 61-171969A discloses a
sealing layer made of porous metal (density ratio: 26 to 40%, 60 to 74% in terms of porosity), and, further, discloses to
dispose, on the outermost surface portion thereof, a surface layer containing ceramic microparticles to impart corrosion
resistance to a working fluid. An object thereof is to prevent "self-erosion" of a sealing material owing to particle detachment
from a porous metal sealing material and it is disclosed that the outermost layer containing ceramic microparticles formed
on a surface layer exerts its effect of preventing particles from detaching. A target is a turbomachine, but there is no
description meaning a steam turbine environment.
[0004] In JP 2005-330586A, a metal bond layer of thermal barrier coating (TBC) for gas turbines is formed into a two
layer structure having a lower layer and an upper layer, and the upper layer is formed porous (porosity: 3 to 4%) and
integrated with a ceramic top layer to improve the heat endurance of the TBC. In this example, in order to alleviate
thermal stress, the porosities are gradually varied through the lower layer and upper layer of the metal bond layer and
more up to the ceramic top layer. However, there is such a large difference as about 1: 10 between thermal expansion
coefficients of the ceramic layer and the metal bond layer; accordingly, the thermal stress tends to be increased. JP
2005-330586A intends to relax thermal stress of a metal bond layer of a thermal barrier coating (TBC) for gas turbines,
but not of a metal sealing material of the present invention.
[0005] JP 2007-327139A discloses, as to a ceramic seal, a high temperature sealing material where a dysprosia
(Dy2O3)-stabilized zirconia (ZrO2) material (DySZ) that is a top ceramic layer is made porous so as to have the porosity
of 15 to 45% and integrated with a dense undercoat metal layer to form a two layer structure and that can be used up
to 1200C. JP 2007-327139A intends to provide a ceramic sealing material made of a ceramic up to 1200C, but not of
a metal sealing material of the present invention.
[0006] JP 09-67662A discloses, as to a ceramic coating member, a two-layer structure where a top ceramic layer is
densified so that the porosity may be 0 to 5% and an underlayer ceramic layer is made porous so as to have the porosity
of 20 to 30% to alleviate thermal stress. Similarly to JP 2005-330586 A, there is a large difference of about 1:10 between
thermal expansion coefficients of the ceramic layer and the metal bond layer; accordingly, a ceramic layer is formed
into two layers to alleviate thermal stress. JP 09-67662A discloses ceramic layers different in porosity to relax thermal
stress of a ceramic coating member, but not of a metal sealing material of the present invention.
[0007] WO 2005/014979 A1 as well as US 3 825 364 A each disclose a turbine metal sealing material used in a
sealing device for reducing a fluid leaking from a gap between a stator and a rotor of a turbine, wherein the metal sealing
material comprises a porous metal layer and the porous metal layer comprises a surface layer directly coming into
contact with a working fluid and a lower layer lying thereunder, wherein the porosity of the surface layer is smaller than
the porosity of the lower layer.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0013] An example of an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1. In FIG. 1A, an example where a
sealing material 5 involving the present invention is disposed to a rotor 1 that is a rotating portion coping with fins 3
disposed to a casing 2 is shown. In FIG. 1B, an example where a sealing material 5 involving the present invention is
disposed to a casing 2 coping with fins disposed to a tip end of a rotor blade 4 is shown.
[0014] The sealing material is a porous metal layer and the porosity thereof is a material parameter. In a porous metal
layer, an MCrA1Y alloy as a main component and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) can be used. The MCrA1Y alloy
contains 15 to 30% of Cr, 6 to 15% of A1, and 0.3 to 1.0% of Y, the balance being composed of either one of Ni and Co
or both thereof. The thermal expansion coefficient of a porous metal layer is 13 3 10-6 and is not much different from
the thermal expansion coefficient (13 to 15 3 10-6) of ferrite steel constituting steam turbine rotors, blades and casings;
accordingly, there is no need to consider relaxation of thermal stress. Furthermore, in a steam turbine that is a target of
the present invention, the maximum temperature is 700C; accordingly, no ceramic material is required, and the metal
sealing material can secure sufficient heat resistance.
[0015] In the present invention, requirements necessary as a sealing material for steam turbines, that is, (1) abradability
in the temperature range up to a steam temperature of a steam turbine, (2) steam resistance heat cycle of start and
stop (after moisture impregnation at the time of stop, repetition of heating to a steam temperature and cooling therefrom),
and (3) endurance to a long term exposure at a steam temperature were investigated, and porous metal layers satisfying

Accordingly, on a surface portion that comes into contact with steam, it is desirable to dispose a porous metal layer
having the porosity of 60 to 65%.
[0024] Then, (3) the endurance against a long term exposure at a steam temperature was evaluated by conducting
a long term exposure test under conditions of normal pressure and 700C by assuming a steam temperature (700C)
of a steam turbine. Each of porous metal layers having the porosities of 55, 60, 65, 67, 70, 75 and 77% was subjected
to a test for 1000 hr. As the results thereof, all porous metal layers were free from damages such as peeling and healthy.
[0025] In FIG. 5, experimental results of the (1) to (3) are shown all together. In FIG. 5, the porous metal layers having
the porosities of 60 to 65% show characteristics where the abradable property of (1) is about 0.6. However, in a single
layer structure of the porous metal layer in the range (a range indicated by a mark I), when a rotor and a stator come
into contact, sticking is caused and thereby sufficient sealing characteristics cannot be obtained. Furthermore, the porous
metal layers having the porosities of 67 to 75% exhibit characteristics where the abradable property of (1) is 0.8 to 0.9.
However, in a single layer structure of the porous metal layers in the range (a range indicated by a mark II), the steam
resistance heat cycle characteristics of (2) are poor; accordingly, the local peeling (pitching damage) is caused on a
surface portion during use, the surface irregularity becomes larger to result in lowering the sealing characteristics.
[0026] In this connection, a high endurance sealing material involving the present invention is formed into a two layer
structure made of a coating layer and a lower layer, wherein the coating layer uses a porous metal layer (in the range
shown by a mark I) excellent in the (2) steam resistance heat cycle characteristics, and the lower layer that is disposed
thereunder and not exposed directly to steam uses a porous metal layer (in the range shown by a mark II) that is poor
in the (2) steam resistance heat cycle characteristics but has excellent characteristics of 0.8 to 0.9 of abradable property.
Both of the coating layer and lower layer have sufficient characteristics of (3) the endurance against long term exposure
at a steam temperature.
[0027] In the high endurance sealing material of the present invention, a surface layer portion effectively works to (2)
the steam resistance heat cycle characteristics, and, in the case where the rotor and stator come into contact, although
an initial contact occurs on a surface layer portion, when the contact portion in due time reaches a lower layer, the
abradable property shows excellent characteristics of 0.8 to 0.9; accordingly, both of a portion that comes into contact
and a portion that does not come into contact show excellent sealing characteristics as a sealing material over a long term.
[0028] FIGS. 6A to 6D show a schematic sectional view of a sealing material of the present invention. In a sealing
material 5 of the present invention, a porous metal layer has a two layer structure constituted of I of a surface layer
portion 51 and II of a lower layer 52, wherein the porosity of I of the surface layer portion 51 is 60 to 65%, the porosity
of II of the lower layer 52 is 67 to 75%. In FIG. 6A, the sealing material 5 is disposed on a base material 9 via an
underlayer 10. In FIG. 6B, there is no undercoat layer 10 and a porous metal layer constituted of I: a surface layer portion
51 and II: a lower layer 52 is directly disposed on a base material 9. In FIG. 6C, a plurality of porous metal layers
constituted of I: a surface layer portion 51 and II: a lower layer 52 is laminated and disposed on a base material 9 via
an undercoat layer 10. In FIG. 6D, in a configuration of FIG. 6C, without an undercoat layer, a porous metal layer obtained
by laminating a plurality of layers is directly disposed on a base material 9. In the sealing materials 5 of the present
invention, FIGS. 6B and 6D can be used in a portion of which the temperature is relatively low, and, in FIGS. 6C and
6D, when used in a portion readily generating moisture owing to a decrease in a dew point of steam when a steam
turbine stops, even when a porous metal layer (constituted of I of a surface layer portion 51 and II of a lower layer 52)
of a surface portion of the present invention is damaged, a porous metal layer (constituted of I of a surface layer portion
51 and II of a lower layer 52) therebelow appears and is able to exert an advantage of the present invention. The number
of repetition of lamination was taken as two for the description, but three or more can also provide the same advantage.
[0029] A porous metal layer I and a porous metal layer II are produced by a spray coating process, particularly
preferably, by a plasma spraying process. A spraying raw material is preferably a powder containing a CoNiCrA1Y alloy
as a main component, hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) that is a high temperature solid lubricant, and polyester, wherein
it is preferable that h-BN is contained in the range of 3 to 7% by mass and the polyester is contained in the range of 15
to 25% by mass. In particular, relationship between an addition amount of the polyester that is a material for forming
pores and the porosity of a coated film is important. A sprayed film is constituted of a CoNiCrAIY alloy, h-BN, and
polyester. Among the components, the polyester sublimates and disappears when heated at 400 to 500C and thereby,
in a sprayed film, the polyester portion becomes a vacant portion. Accordingly, porous metal layers different in porosity
according to the present invention are produced by heating sprayed films different in polyester content with spraying
powders different in polyester content. As an example, with a 9MB gun (trade name, manufactured by Sulzer Metco
Ltd.) and under the conditions of Ar-H2 mixed gas, output power 40 kW and a spraying distance 125 mm, at 17% of
polyester content to spraying powder, a sprayed film having a porosity of 60% was obtained; at 19%, a sprayed film
having a porosity of 65%; and at 24%, a sprayed film having a porosity of 75% were also obtained.
[0030] Furthermore, as a means for forming films different in porosity in the present invention, there is also a method
of controlling spraying conditions. With a 9MB gun (trade name, manufactured by Sulzer Metco Ltd.) and under the
conditions of Ar-H2 mixed gas, output power: 45 kW and a spraying distance: 125 mm, at a polyester content of spraying
powder of 17%, a sprayed film having a porosity of 55% was obtained; at 19%, a porosity of 60%; and at 24%, a porosity
EP 2 270 258 B1

of 67%. What is described here is an example of a production method of the present invention, as a spraying method,
either one of high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) spraying and air plasma spraying can be conducted, and the spraying
conditions are also an example.
[0031] The hardness of the coated film was measured by the use of a Superficial Tester under a weight of 15 kg. In
the hardness measurement, the hardness was measured at 7 points and an average value of 5 points excluding the
minimum and maximum values was adopted. The porosity was obtained by image analysis from observation results of
sectional structures of films with an optical microscope. In the image analysis, an area rate of a CoNiCrAlY alloy portion
that was seen white was measured and an area rate of the other portion obtained by calculation was taken as the
porosity. The porosity was measured after heat treatment in the range of 400 to 500C. By heat treatment, polyester
sublimates and disappears and forms voids in a film. Furthermore, h-BN in the film is not seen white with an optical
microscope and is difficult to differentiate from voids; accordingly, it is treated as voids. In the porosity measurement,
sectional structure observation was conducted at 3 points of the same test piece and an average value of measurements
at the 3 points was adopted.
[0032] FIG. 7 shows relationship between the porosities of the prepared coated films and hardness thereof. In the
present invention, the porous metal layer I is differentiated from the porous metal layer II based on the porosity. However,
as shown in FIG. 7, the porous metal layer I has the hardness of 77 to 74 and is differentiated from the porous metal
layer II that has the hardness of 74 to 65.
[0033] The underlayer shown in FIG. 6 is not particularly restricted. However, as a component thereof, a heat-resistant
metal such as an MCrAIY alloy, a Ni-A1 alloy or a Ni-Cr alloy is preferred and a relatively dense coated film having the
porosity of 5% or less is preferred. A base material is, for example, 12Cr steel used as a rotor material, airfoil material,
and CrMoV steel for a casing material.
[0034] Examples and comparative examples of the present invention will be detailed below.

[0036] Table 3 shows an example of Examples of the present invention. All Examples show good results of both
characteristics of abradability and steam resistance. When a thickness of an entire porous metal layer of the present
invention is 0.3 mm or less, the abradable property is not fully exerted, and, when the thickness is 3.0 mm or more, a
gap is too large. Accordingly, a thickness of the entire porous metal layer is preferable to be in the range of 0.3 to 3.0
mm. Furthermore, as to thicknesses of the porous metal layer I and the porous metal layer II, a ratio of the porous metal
layer I to the porous metal layer II (I/II) is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 1.0. This is because when the ratio is 0.1 or
less, the steam resistance owing to the porous metal layer I decreases, and, when the ratio is 1.0 or more, the abradable
