In the work, taking into account state of issue in field applying multilayer heat-shielding and wear-resistant coatings, directions research are substantiated. The objectives development are: improvement powder materials containing zirconium dioxide partially stabilized with yttrium oxide for plasma deposition coa-tings; ceramics nickel-based alloys coatings; technological parameters spraying s...

In this paper an innovative computational approach, namely the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM), is used for simulating and modeling plasma jet behaviors. Plasma jets are a high temperature flows, then all physical parameters are temperature dependent. This work aims to address the issue of simulating plasma-jet from the point of view of extending the applications to simulating flows with tempera...

Macor coatings on 316 alloys substrates were prepared by plasma spraying. The crystallization temperature, thermal expansion coefficient of mica glass-ceramic were at 900ºC and 40× 10−7/◦C respectively. The microhardness of obtained glass-ceramic coating was 6.8GPa and the coefficient friction was 0.98 . 

The cathode/electrolyte LSCF48/YDC15 couple is a building block of a new innovative and competitive design of a high temperature fuel cell, operating in the range between 600 and 700°C. It is based on the idea for a junction between a proton conducting SOFC (PCFC) anode/electrolyte part and a SOFC cathode/electrolyte part through a mixed H and O conducting porous ceramic membrane. Thus, in this...
