As temperature increases, stabilizers are dissolved into zirconia matrix gradually. Synthesized at 1 500 °C, GYb-YSZ is basically composed of cubic phase. GYb-YSZ exhibits excellent phase stability and sinters lower than 8YSZ by nearly three times. The thermal conductivity of GYb-YSZ is much lower than that of 8YSZ, and the thermal expansion coefficient of GYb-YSZ is comparable to that of 8YSZ. The influence of Gd2O3 and Yb2O3 co-doping on phase stability, thermal conductivity and sintering of 8YSZ is discussed.展开更多

The effect of sintering on thermal conductivity and thermal barrier effects of conventional plasma sprayed and nanostructured yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are investigated. Remarkable increase in thermal conductivity occurs to both typical coatings after heat treatment, The change of porosity is just the opposite. The grain size of the nanostructured zirconia coating increases more drastically with annealing time compared to that of the conventional plasma sprayed coating, which indicates that coating sintering makes more contributions to the thermal conductivity of the nanostructured coating than that of the conventional coating. Thermal barrier effect tests using temperature difference technique are performed on both coatings. The thermal barrier effects decrease with the increase of thermal conductivity after heat treat- ment and the decline seems more drastic in low thermal conductivity range. The decline in thermal barrier effects is about 80℃ for nanostructured coating after 100 h heat treatment, while the conventional coating reduces by less than 60 ℃ compared to the as-sprayed coating.展开更多

However, localized spallation in the ceramic top-coat might occur after long duration of thermal exposure or thermal cycling. To comprehensively understand the damage of the top-coat on the overall hot section part, effects of diameter and tilt angle of the spallation on the temperature redistribution of the substrate and the top-coat were investigated. The results show that the spallation diameter and tilt angle both have a significant effect on the temperature redistribution of the top-coat and the substrate. In the case of the substrate, the maximum temperature increment is located at the spallation center. Meanwhile, the surface (depth) maximum temperature increment, having nothing to do with the tilt angle, increases with the increase of the spallation diameter. In contrast, in the case of the top-coat, the maximum temperature increment was located at the sharp corner of the spallation area, and the surface (depth) maximum temperature increment increases with the increase of both the spallation diameter and the tilt angle. Based on the temperature redistribution of the substrate and the top-coat affected by the partial spallation, it is possible to evaluate the damage effect of spalled areas on the thermal capability of TBCs.展开更多
