Abstract
An article can include a ceramic insulator with an interior surface defining a recess, an insulator aperture in the interior surface, and an insulator cooling channel extending through at least a portion of the ceramic insulator to the insulator aperture. A first conductor can be at least partially disposed within the recess.
Claims20
An article, comprising:
- a ceramic insulator comprising an interior surface defining a recess, an insulator aperture in the interior surface, and an insulator cooling channel extending through at least a portion of the ceramic insulator to the insulator aperture;
- and
- a first conductor at least partially disposed within the recess and comprising a first exterior surface, a first aperture in the first exterior surface, and a conductor cooling channel extending through at least a portion of the first conductor to the first aperture, with the first aperture fluidly coupled to the insulator aperture to define a cooling flow path extending through the article along the conductor cooling channel and the insulator cooling channel.
An article, comprising:
- a ceramic insulator comprising an interior surface defining a recess, an insulator aperture in the interior surface, and an insulator cooling channel extending through at least a portion of the ceramic insulator to the insulator aperture;
- a first conductor at least partially disposed within the recess;
- a recess cooling channel defined by a gap formed between the interior surface and at least a portion of the first conductor;
- wherein the insulator aperture is fluidly coupled to the gap to define a cooling flow path extending through the article along the recess cooling channel and the insulator cooling channel.
