2. 1. Design of Thermal Barrier Coatings : A modelling approach

   Author : Mohit Kumar Gupta; Per Nylén; Nicolaie Markocsan; Christer Persson; Lech Pawlowski; Högskolan Väst; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal barrier coatings; Microstructure; Thermal conductivity; Young’s modulus; Interface roughness; Thermally grown oxide; Lifetime; Finite element modelling; Design; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

   Abstract : Atmospheric plasma sprayed (APS) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are commonly used for thermal protection of components in modern gas turbine application such as power generation, marine and aero engines. TBC is a duplex material system consisting of an insulating ceramic topcoat layer and an intermetallic bondcoat layer. READ MORE

4. 2. Design of Microstructures in Thermal Barrier Coatings : A Modelling Approach

   Author : Mohit Kumar Gupta; Per Nylén; Robert Vaβen; Högskolan Väst; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal barrier coatings; microstructure; thermal conductivity; Young‘s modulus; lifetime; finite element modelling; design; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

   Abstract : Plasma sprayed Thermal Barrier Coating systems (TBCs) are commonly used for thermal protection of components in modern gas turbine application such as power generation, marine and aero engines. The material that is most commonly used in these applications is Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) because of this ceramic’s favourable properties, such as low thermal conductivity, phase stability to high temperature, and good erosion resistance.

5. 3. Failure of thermal barrier coatings under thermal and mechanical fatigue loading : microstructural observations and modelling aspects

   Author : Håkan Brodin; Anette M. Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : thermal barrier coating; TBC; delamination; crack initiation; crack propagation; crack growth; oxidation; alumina; spinel; MCrAIY; diffusion; fatigue; modelling; modeling; degradation; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : Industrial and air-borne gas turbine hot components suffer from creep, oxidation, corrosion and microstructural degradation if not shielded from the hot and aggressive combustion gases. Two major strategies commercially available are adopted; film cooling by pressurised air and application of protective coatings. READ MORE

6. 4. Delamination in APS applied thermal barrier coatings : life modelling

   Author : Magnus Jinnestrand; Esteban Busso; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : Thermal barrier coatings, TBCs, are used in gas turbines as a thermal shield resulting in lower temperature in coated components. The decrease of temperature allows higher gas temperatures in the turbine, which increase the efficiency. READ MORE

7. 5. Load Shifting and Storage of Cooling Energy through Ice Bank or Ice Slurry Systems : modelling and experimental analysis

   Author : Marino Grozdek; Per Gunnar Lundqvist; Michael Kauffeld; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; refrigeration systems; cool thermal energy storage system; ice; modelling; simulation; field measurement; experiment; indirect system; ice-on-coil system; external melt; ice slurry; homogeneous storage; heterogeneous storage; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik;

   Abstract : Ice based Cool Thermal Energy Storage (CTES) systems have attracted much attention during last few decades. The reasons are mainly of economical and environmental nature. READ MORE
