Electrical connection for titanium metal heater in jet turbine applications

摘要

An electrical connection for a heater for aerospace components has a titanium containing heater element (55), a copper containing conductor (65); and a welded or strong mechanical interface transition (70) connecting the titanium containing heater element (55) and the copper containing conduction transition (65). The transition (70) has a titanium containing component and a copper containing component, where the titanium containing component is joined to the titanium containing heater element (55).
