Essentially, it is a more powerful version of it. Power is significantly bumped thanks to a pair of low-inertia turbochargers with titanium-aluminide turbines. The LF4 also packs more boost – 18 PSI ...

Cadillac outfitted the LF4 with unique features like a low-volume charge air cooler, titanium connecting rods, and low-inertia titanium aluminide turbines. These features helped with power ...

Gamma-titanium aluminides show great promise in high-temperature applications, their low density and high strength making them strong contenders for the manufacture of turbine blades, possibly ...

However, they also present problems with respect to their understanding and processing. Current research into aluminide- and silicide-based materials illustrates this point very well. Continuing ...

Adrian joined the AMRC in 2002, having previously studied for a PhD at the University of Birmingham on conventional and non-conventional machining of gamma titanium aluminide sponsored by Rolls-Royce ...
