  • SEPARATING ADHESIVELY BONDED LAP JOINTS
    Publication number: 20190061073
    Abstract: A method of separating a lap joint assembly may include positioning a fluid emitter relative to a lap joint assembly. The lap joint assembly may include an adhesive lap joint between a first component and a second component. The method may further include emitting a cryogenic fluid stream from the fluid emitter at the adhesive lap joint. Positioning the fluid emitter and emitting the cryogenic fluid stream may include orienting the fluid emitter such that an angle between the cryogenic fluid stream and the adhesive lap joint is less than 45 degrees. The first component may be a sheath and the second component may be an airfoil body.
