ABSTRACT:
A method is taught for protecting fuel contacting surfaces of a gas turbine engine from carbon deposition by heating the element in a nitrogen containing atmosphere for sufficient time to cause penetration and absorption of nitrogen into the grain boundaries of the alloy surface, which acts as a barrier between the hydrocarbon fuel and the catalytic elements in the surfaces. The method includes heating at a temperature of 1800-1850 F. for about one hour, cooling to 1525-1575 F. and holding for about four hours, and cooling to a temperature of 1375-1425 F. and holding for about 16 hours.
