Abstract: A blade for turbo machine is provided. The blade for a turbo machine includes an airfoil body extending in a radial direction between a root end and a tip end and including an inner void extending from the root end in the radial direction, a root body integrally formed with the airfoil body, extending from the root end of the air foil body to a bottom end in the radial direction, and including a receiving slot extending from the bottom end in the radial direction and opening into the inner void of the air foil body, and an insert positioned in the receiving slot of the root body and including a plurality of through holes extending in the radial direction to form a fluid connection to the inner void of the air foil body.

Abstract: A blade for a turbo machine is provided. The blade for a turbo machine includes an airfoil body extending in a radial direction and including a suction side surface and a pressure side surface opposite to the suction side surface with respect to a circumferential direction extending across the radial direction, and a snubber structure including a first snubber element protruding in the circumferential direction from the suction side surface of the airfoil body and a second snubber element protruding in the circumferential direction from the pressure side surface of the airfoil body, wherein the first snubber element is connected to the suction side surface of the airfoil body by a concave curved first transition portion having a first radius, and the second snubber element is connected to the pressure side surface of the airfoil body by a concave curved second transition portion having a second radius, the first radius being smaller than the second radius.

Abstract: Various aspects include additively manufactured components and related processes of forming such components. In some cases, a method of forming an additively manufactured component includes: identifying a target location in a data model representing a component to be manufactured; adding a reinforced region proximate the target location in the data model; and additively manufacturing the component including the target location and the reinforced region, wherein the additively manufacturing includes: forming the additively manufactured component; and heat treating the additively manufactured component, including the reinforced region, after the forming.
