A method of manufacturing a turbine engine component is disclosed. The method includes the steps of providing a plurality of ceramic cloth plies, each ply having woven ceramic fiber tows and at least one fugitive fiber tow, laying up the plurality of plies in a preselected arrangement to form a turbine engine component shape, oxidizing the fugitive fibers to produce fugitive fiber void regions in the ply, rigidizing the component shape to form a coated component preform using chemical vapor infiltration, partially densifying the coated component preform using carbon-containing slurry, and further densifying the coated component preform with at least silicon to form a ceramic matrix composite turbine engine component having matrix rich regions.

What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a turbine engine component comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of ceramic cloth plies, each ply comprising a plurality of tows, wherein the tows include ceramic fiber tows and wherein at least one ply further includes fugitive fiber tows;
What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a turbine engine component comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of ceramic cloth plies, each ply comprising a plurality of tows, wherein the tows include ceramic fiber tows and wherein at least one ply further includes fugitive fiber tows; laying up the plurality of plies in a preselected arrangement to form a turbine engine component shape; oxidizing the fugitive fiber tows to produce fugitive fiber void regions in the at least one fugitive fiber containing ply; and after the steps of laying up and oxidizing, slurry casting the component by steps comprising: rigidizing the component shape to form a coated component preform using chemical vapor infiltration; partially densifying the coated component preform using carbon-containing slurry; and further densifying the coated component preform with at least silicon to form a ceramic matrix composite turbine engine component having matrix rich regions, wherein the step of providing a woven ceramic cloth comprises providing a woven ceramic cloth having at least one ply with more tows in a warp direction than a weft direction and wherein the ratio of fugitive fibers to ceramic fibers is the same in both the warp and weft directions. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the ratio of tows in the warp direction of the provided woven ceramic cloth to the tows in the weft direction of the provided woven ceramic cloth is at least about 2:1. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of oxidizing the fugitive fiber tows is performed in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at a temperature in the range of about 700° C. to about 800° C., for about 100 minutes. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the fugitive fibers tows comprise materials selected from the group consisting of cotton, rayon, nylon, and combinations thereof. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the ratio of ceramic fiber tows to fugitive fiber tows is in the range of about 1:1 to about 7:1. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the plies are silicon carbide containing plies. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the turbine engine component is a turbine blade. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the turbine engine component is an uncooled turbine blade. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the turbine engine component is a cooled turbine blade. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the turbine engine component is a cooled turbine nozzle. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the turbine engine component is an uncooled turbine nozzle. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of rigidizing further comprises applying a layer of BN and a layer of SiC to the plies using chemical vapor infiltration. 13. A method of manufacturing a turbine engine component comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of ceramic cloth plies, each ply comprising a plurality of tows, wherein the tows include ceramic fiber tows and fugitive fiber tows, the number of tows in a warp direction greater than the number of tows in a weft direction; laying up the plurality of plies in a preselected arrangement to form a turbine engine component shape; oxidizing the fugitive fiber tows to produce fugitive fiber void regions in the fugitive-fiber containing ply; and after the steps of laying up and oxidizing, slurry casting the component by steps comprising: rigidizing the component shape with at least one layer of comprising a material selected from the group consisting of BN, SiC and combinations thereof to form a coated component preform using chemical vapor infiltration; partially densifying the coated component preform using carbon-containing slurry; and further densifying the coated component preform with at least silicon to form a ceramic matrix composite turbine engine component having matrix rich regions; wherein the ratio of fugitive fibers to ceramic fibers is the same in both the warp and weft directions. 14. A method of manufacturing a turbine engine component comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of ceramic cloth plies, each ply comprising a plurality of tows, wherein the tows include ceramic fiber tows and wherein at least one ply further includes fugitive fiber tows, the ply having more tows in a warp direction than a weft direction with the same number of fugitive fiber tows in the warp direction as the weft direction; laying up the plurality of plies in a preselected arrangement to form a turbine engine component shape; oxidizing the fugitive fiber tows to produce fugitive fiber void regions in the at least one fugitive fiber containing ply; and after the steps of laying up and oxidizing, slurry casting the component by steps comprising: rigidizing the component shape to form a coated component preform using chemical vapor infiltration; partially densifying the coated component preform using carbon-containing slurry; and further densifying the coated component preform with at least silicon to form a ceramic matrix composite turbine engine component having matrix rich regions.
