  1. 1. Erosion Behaviour of Thermal Barrier Coatings

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Konstruktionsmaterial

    Author : Caroline Wännman; [2021]
    Keywords : erosion; TBC; APS; EB-PVD; PS-PVD; failure mechanisms;

    Abstract : Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are advanced material systems used in the hot sections of gas turbines. The TBCs are designed to provide insulation against hot gases by a ceramic top coat and to provide oxidation and corrosion resistance by a metallic bond coat. READ MORE

  4. 3. Understanding the effect of material composition and microstructure on the hot corrosion behaviour of plasma sprayed thermal barrier coatings

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Avdelningen för avverkande och additativa tillverkningsprocesser (AAT)

    Author : Ehsan Najafi; [2019]
    Keywords : Thermal barrier coatings; molten salt infiltration; TBC variations; hot corrosion test;

    Abstract : Thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are used in the hot sections of gas turbine engine in order to insulate the substrate at high temperature. Molten salt infiltration retards the durability of TBCs. The current standard material, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 4. Facing a new pest : the case of the invasive fruit fly Drosophila suzukii in southern Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)
