Additively manufactured component including an impingement structure
Abstract:
An additively manufactured impingement structure for a component is provided. The control structure includes an outer wall, an inner wall, and an impingement wall positioned between the outer wall and the inner wall. A fluid distribution passageway is defined between the inner wall and the impingement wall and an impingement gap is defined between the impingement wall and the outer wall. A plurality of impingement holes are defined in the impingement wall to provide fluid communication between the fluid distribution passageway and the impingement gap. A flow of cooling or heating fluid may be supplied to the fluid distribution passageway which distributes the flow and impinges it through the impingement holes onto the outer wall to cool or heat the outer wall, respectively.
