  2. 1. Functional Performance of Gadolinium Zirconate/Yttria Stabilized Zirconia Multi-Layered Thermal Barrier Coatings

    Author : Satyapal Mahade; Per Nylén; Nicolaie Markocsan; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Erosion; Gadolinium Zirconate; Suspension Plasma Spray; Thermal Barrier Coatings; Thermal Cyclic Test; Thermal Conductivity; Yttria Stabilized Zirconia; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is the state of the art ceramic top coat material used for TBC applications. The desire to achieve a higher engine efficiency of agas turbine engine by increasing the turbine inlet temperature has pushed YSZ toits upper limit. READ MORE

  4. 2. In-situ testing of floating thermal piles in soft sensitive clay

    Author : Anders Bergström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maintained; Cyclic Thermal loading; Energy piles; Field Test; Thermal Piles;

    Abstract : Thermal piles are structural piles with additional function of working as geothermal heat exchangers towards the soil volume. Heating and cooling process of soft soils is known to affect the stress state and soil structure, with potential consolidation settlements and creep as undesired consequences. READ MORE

  5. 3. Design of Thermal Barrier Coating Systems

    Author : Nicholas Curry; Per Nylén; Nicolaie Markocsan; Robert Vassen; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal Barrier Coating; Atmopsheric Plasma Spraying; Thermal Conductivity; Thermo-cyclic fatigue; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Thermal barrier coatings (TBC’s) are used to provide both thermal insulation and oxidation protection to high temperature components within gas turbines. The development of turbines for power generation and aviation has led to designs where the operation conditions exceed the upper limits of most conventional engineering materials. READ MORE

  6. 4. Thermal barrier coatings for diesel engines

    Author : Wellington Uczak de Goes; Nicolaie Markocsan; Mohit Kumar Gupta; Rogerio S. Lima; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal Barrier Coatings; Suspension Plasma Spraying; Gadolinium Zirconate; Internal Combustion Engines; Engine Efficiency; Termiska barriärbeläggningar; Plasmasprutning; Suspensionssprutning; Gadolinium; Zirkoniumdioxid; Förbränningsmotorer; Motoreffektivitet; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : The upward trend in internal combustion engine efficiency is driven by the demands for emission reduction and fossil fuel depletion. No present alternative fuel can produce energy comparable to that produced by conventional oil; this necessitates the reasonable, efficient usage of oil. READ MORE

  7. 5. Characterisation of mechanical and thermal properties of tungsten for high power spallation target applications

    Author : Jemila Habainy; Materialteknik; []
    Keywords : Utmattning; Termisk diffusivitet; Volfram; Spallation; Strålningseffekter; ESS; Oxidation; Mekaniska egenskaper; Mechanical Properties; Thermal diffusivity; Tungsten; ESS; Spallation target; Irradiation effects; Fatigue; Oxidation;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source (ESS), which is currently under construction in Lund, will use pure tungsten as the spallation neutron target. The tungsten will be irradiated by a 2 GeV proton beam, pulsed at a repetition rate of 14 Hz. READ MORE
