Residual Stress Analysis of Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating Based on Thermal Spray Process

A Theoretical Model for Predicting Residual Stress Generation in Fabrication Process of Double-Ceramic-Layer Thermal Barrier Coating System

Residual stress arisen in fabrication process of Double-Ceramic-Layer Thermal Barrier Coating System (DCL-TBCs) has a significant effect on its quality and reliability. In this work, based on the practical fabrication process of DCL-TBCs and the force and moment equilibrium, a theoretical model was proposed at first to predict residual stress generation in its fabrication process, in which the ...

Numerical (CFD) Analysis of Thermal Spray Coating Process

Evaluation of thermal conduction anisotropy on Thermal Barrier Coating

The microstructural analysis of Thermal Barrier Coatings, deposited according to the Air Plasma Spray technology, furnishes information according which a strong orthotropic thermal conductivity is expected to be measured for such a material. Pulsed experiment with a localized heating source and thermographic temperature recording, permit to evaluate both the in-depth and in-plane components of ...

Thermal Conductivity of a Zirconia Thermal Barrier Coating

The conductivity of a thermal-barrier coating composed of atmospheric plasma sprayed 8 mass percent yttria partially stabilized zirconia has been measured. This coating was sprayed on a substrate of 410 stainless steel. An absolute, steady-state measurement method was used to measure thermal conductivity from 400 to 800 K. The thermal conductivity of the coating is 0.62 W/(m⋅K). This measuremen...

THE EFFECTS OF PLASMA SPRAY PARAMETERS ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND PHASE COMPOSITION OF THERMAL BARRIER COATINGS MADE BY SPPS PROCESS

In this paper the effect of plasma spray parameters, atomizing gas and substrate preheat temperature on microstructure and phase composition of YSZ coatings produced by SPPS process have been investigated. The experimental results showed that increasing the power of plasma, using hydrogen as the precursor atomizing gas and increasing substrate preheat temperature decrease the amount of non-pyro...
