Simulation Based Design System for Thermal Barrier Coatings
Deformation Control Technology, Inc.
Cleveland, OH |
INNOVATION
Software that enables design optimization of thermal and environmental barrier coatings (EBC) in aerospace and land-based turbine components
|
Simulation Software to Characterizes Response of
Thermal Barrier Coating during Burner Rig Testing
|
|
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Successful incorporation of 6 main stress drivers into Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC) model, including oxidation
- First fundamental description of the role of oxidation in TBC/EBC failure
- First analytical characterization of multi-layer bond coats and environmental/oxidation barriers through simulation
/font>
- Provided first basic descriptors for quantifying delamination stresses in multi-coating systems
|
COMMERCIALIZATION
- In use to analyze test results and design TBCs for electric power generation turbine applications
- Commercial contract in excess of $30K initiated during and after Phase I work
- Continued research collaboration in land-based turbine sector
|
GOVERNMENT/SCIENCE
APPLICATIONS
- Useful to define failure mechanisms in both
thermal and environmental barrier coating systems
- Can be used within both NASA and the land-based
turbine sector to reduce costly experimentation while
developing advanced and innovative coating
