This dissertation by Robert Eriksson focuses on the durability assessment and life prediction of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), which are used in gas turbines for thermal insulation and oxidation resistance. The study investigates the effects of isothermal oxidation, thermal cycling fatigue, and thermal shock on the adhesion and fatigue life of air plasma sprayed TBCs. It examines different substrate materials, interface roughness, and environmental factors such as water vapor and salt deposits on the performance of TBC systems. The research introduces a life model using Thermo-Calc software to predict Al-depletion and oxidation kinetics. Intended for an academic audience, this work contributes to the field of advanced materials engineering by providing insights into the mechanisms affecting TBC durability.

This dissertation by Krishna Praveen Jonnalagadda focuses on the failure mechanisms and life prediction of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) used in gas turbines. The research investigates the performance of high-temperature coatings, particularly yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), and explores alternatives like pyrochlores for improved thermal efficiency. The study examines the effects of corrosion, thermal cycling, and deposition techniques on TBCs, comparing atmospheric plasma spray (APS) and suspension plasma spray (SPS) methods. Key findings include the impact of corrosion under varying conditions and the development of life models based on fracture mechanics to predict coating lifespan. The work is intended for researchers and engineers in materials science and engineering, with the goal to enhance TBC performance in industrial applications.

Thermal Barrier Coatings, Second Edition plays a critical role in counteracting the effects of corrosion and degradation of exposed materials in high-temperature environments such as gas turbine and aero-engines. This updated edition reviews recent advances in the processing and performance of thermal barrier coatings, as well as their failure mechanisms. Novel technologies for the manufacturing of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) such as plasma spray-physical vapor deposition and suspension plasma spray, are covered, as well as severe degradation of TBCs caused by CMAS attack. In addition to discussions of new materials and technologies, an outlook about next generation TBCs, including T/EBCs is discussed. This edition will provide the fundamental science and engineering of thermal barrier coatings for researchers in the field of TBCs, as well as students looking for a tutorial.

This book details the relationships between microstructure, interface roughness, and properties of thermal barrier coatings. The author proposes a method for the reduction of the thermal conductivity of the ceramic layer in order to increase the lifetime of thermal barrier coatings. He includes models for the optimization of ceramic layer microstructure and interface roughness.
