Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] This invention is a laser surface treatment technique. [Prior Art] After the long-term operation of the low-end section of the low-pressure section of the steam turbine of the thermal power plant, it is easy to produce erosion damage in the leading end area of the blade, which reduces the operating efficiency of the unit, and seriously affects the operation safety of the unit. Therefore, the original manufacturer of the unit usually covers the area of the blade (about 1/10~1/4 of the leaf surface width; 1/5~1/3 of the leaf surface length), and covers a piece of about 0.5~1 by brazing. Mm thick Stellite Νο·6 strip, to enhance the erosion resistance of this area. Since the stellite strip is not easily matched with the blade guide end curvature, its size and shape are greatly limited. In general, the extent of the blade erosion zone is larger than the area covered by the Stellite strip, so the base metal is often damaged. The blade of this damage cannot be brazed by replacing the Stellite Νο·6 strip. The appearance of the final blades of the turbine can be divided into the root groove part 1 (Root), the blade surface part 2 (Face), the blade head 3 (Shroud), and the blade ear-shaped welding connection point 4 (shown in the first figure). Lashing lugs), the Erosion resistance region of leading edge, the brazed Stellite strip region 14, the blade leading end 6, and the trailing edge 7 (Trailingedge). The main material of the last stage blade of the low-pressure section of the steam turbine of the thermal power plant is 17-4 PH precipitation hardening type stainless steel or Ma Tian scattered iron type 403 stainless steel. In order to improve the shortcomings of the above-mentioned last-stage blade brazing and welding and enhance its anti-erosion properties, the paper discusses the 403 stainless steel blades of the Θ Θ 散 散, [V.

The laser spraying treatment technology of the invention can be applied to the production process of 17-4 PH new blade or the regeneration process of the damaged old blade. The powder used in the laser spraying treatment is 17-4 PH alloy similar to the blade material. Powder. The cross section of the blade treated by laser spraying can be divided into the laser-coated treatment area 8 of the blade leading end as shown in the second figure. The blade base material is not affected by the laser heat affected zone 2, and the laser spray Thermal impact of treatment Zone 1〇, the blade leading end spray treatment starting point 9 (by a perpendicular line 11 perpendicular to the blade bending moment centerline 13 and passing through a tangent point tangent to the outer edge of the pressure side of the blade leading end) The starting point of the blade leading end spraying treatment), the blade leading end 6 is the action area of the blade in the erosion direction of the blade 12, and 7 is the blade wake end. After the laser-sprayed blade is slightly ground, The macroscopic metallographic photographs after aging and stress-relieving treatment with H9〇〇 (482°C/lhr + air cooling) are shown in the third figure. From the third figure, the blades can be fairly evenly treated by laser spraying. The spray coating layer and the spray coating layer have a hardness value of 430Hv or more after H900 aging treatment. In the second figure, the blade guide end is subjected to laser spray treatment and H900 treatment hardening zone 8, and the hardness value distribution is 430Hv~ 490Hv, the blade base metal is not affected by the laser heat affected zone 2, its hardness value is 300Hv~320Hv, the laser mouth heat affected zone 10 is less than 〇·5 mm, and its 1253473 hardness distribution is 330Hv~420Hv. The thickness of the laser spray coating exceeds 1 mm and its hardness is higher than 420 Hv of the Stellite strip. The required depth of the laser spray coating according to the impact layer (0.5~2 mm) can be achieved by adjusting the laser power density and the powder feeding flow. In the laser spraying process of the invention, the laser parameters are controlled. The powder flow rate allows the 17-4 PH powder to absorb most of the laser energy, so the heat affected zone generated in the erosion resistant zone can be reduced to below 0.5 mm. Since the heat input of the process is less than 320 J/mm, and most of the heat is absorbed by the powder, the residual stress of the blade can be minimized. After the laser is sprayed and processed by H900_, the residue can be reduced. In addition to stress, the hardness of the spray coating can be greatly increased to 430Hv~490Hv' without affecting the hardness of the base metal. Spraying process Using alloy powder of the same material as the blade, it is possible to avoid the difference in physical and mechanical properties between the sprayed area and the base material, which causes the residual stress to be difficult to eliminate [Yang et. aL;?Laser Welding of 422 Stainless Steel with
