Abstract

A method of forming a microchannel cooled component is provided. The method includes forming at least one microchannel within a surface of a relatively planar plate. The method also includes placing a relatively planar cover member over the surface having the at least one microchannel formed therein. The method further includes adhering the relatively planar cover member to the relatively planar plate. The method yet further includes curving the microchannel cooled component by pressing the relatively planar cover member with a forming component for at least a portion of a time period of adhering the relatively planar cover member to the relatively planar plate.
