Journal ArticleDOI
Development and thermal fatigue testing of ceramic thermal barrier coatings
TL;DR: In this paper, a laser thermal fatigue test technique has been used to study the delamination crack propagation of thermal barrier coatings under simulated engine heat flux heating and thermal cyclic loading.
Journal ArticleDOI
Failure analysis of plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings
TL;DR: In this paper, a qualitative appraisal of how process variables affect coating integrity could be discerned in terms of cracking behavior was obtained from up to seven consecutive thermal cycles with and without a NiCrAlZr bond.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, thermal spray processing is discussed in terms of plasma-particle interactions, deposit formation dynamics, thermal properties of thermal barrier coatings, mechanical properties of coatings and feedstock materials, porosity, and manufacture of intermetallic coatings.

Plasma sprayed ceramic thermal barrier coating for NiAl-based intermetallic alloys
Robert A. Miller,Joseph Doychak +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a thermal barrier coating system consisting of two layers of a zirconia-yttria ceramic is presented. And the second layer is applied by conventional atmospheric pressure plasma spraying.
Thermal Conductivity of Ceramic Thermal Barrier and Environmental Barrier Coating Materials
TL;DR: In this article, thermal conductivity values of zirconia-yttria-based oxides and (Ba,Sr)Al2Si2O8(BSAS)/mullite based silicates have been determined at high temperatures using a steady-state laser heat flux technique.
