Effect of geometric parameter on thermal stress generation in fabrication process of double-ceramic-layers thermal barrier coating system

摘要

In this work, quenching stress generated during the deposition process and the Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) thermal mismatch stress produced during the cooling down process of Double-Ceramic-Layers Thermal Barrier Coating System (DCL-TBCs) have been intensively examined. The thickness ratio of Lanthanum Zirconate (LZ, La2Zr2O7) coating to stabilized Zirconia (YSZ, ZrO2-8%Y2O3) coating, have been theoretically analyzed. In addition, DCL-TBCs specimens with different thickness ratio of LZ to YSZ coatings were fabricated, to study the effect of this thickness ratio by specimen curvature and crack density analysis. Meanwhile, Finite Element Method (FEM) has been carried out to validate results obtained theoretically. The results reveal that by comparison to CTE thermal mismatch stress, quenching stress has remarkable effect on total thermal stress. By increasing thickness ratio of YSZ to LZ coatings, average thermal stress and crack densities in YSZ and LZ coatings increased. Nevertheless, the curvature ratio of DCL-TBCs specimen decreases.
