The residual stresses could cause extensive damage to thermal barrier coatings and even failure. A finite element model of thermal barrier coating system had been designed to simulate the residual stresses and then to analyze the crack nucleation behavior. The distribution of normal and tangential stress components along top coat (TC) / thermally grown oxide (TGO) and TGO / bond coat (BC) interfaces are shown in this work. It is found that the maximum tensile stress along TC/TGO interface occurs in the peak region during heating-up, and that along TGO/BC interface is also located in the peak region, but during the process of cooling-down. A parameter correlating the normal stress component with corresponding tangential one was used to evaluate the interfacial cracks, indicating that cracks will initiate at the peak-off region of TC/TGO interface in the heating-up phase, but for TGO/BC interface, cracks will initiate at the peak position in the cooling-down phase. 相似文献

Residual stress distribution along interfaces in thermal barrier coating system under thermal cycles
《Ceramics International》2017,43(3):3089-3100
The residual interfacial stress plays an important role in crack initiating and propagating along the interface, which could result in delamination failure of the thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). In this study, the finite element model of air plasma spraying(APS) TBCs was established to assess the level and distribution of residual stress along top coat(TC)/thermally grown oxide (TGO) and bond coat (BC)/TGO interfaces under thermal cycles. Instead of using vertical stress S22 in global coordinate system, the normal and tangential components in the local system along the interfaces, transformed from stress components S11, S22, and S12 in the global one, were used to evaluate the way the cracks initiate and propagate along the interfaces. Firstly, the effect of the number of thermal cycles on residual stress was investigated. It was found that, for the TBCs model without TGO growth and crack, the impact of the number of thermal cycles on the stress is very insignificant and could be ignored. So the present study only chose to focus on the first thermal cycle. Then the influence of the TGO thickness and the interface amplitude on the normal and tangential residual stresses for both homogeneous and inhomogeneous temperature fields was explored. The results show that the TGO thickness, interface amplitude and temperature field affect the residual stress level and distribution, leading to different fracture mechanisms along TC/TGO and TGO/BC interfaces. Finally, the difference between the vertical stress in the global coordinate system and the normal stress in the local coordinate system was studied. Compared with vertical stress S22, the stress components normal and tangential to the TC/TGO and TGO/BC interfaces are more appropriate to describing the stress distribution along the interfaces and predicting the propensity of crack initiating and propagating along the interfaces. 相似文献

Comprehensive dynamic failure mechanism of thermal barrier coatings based on a novel crack propagation and TGO growth coupling model 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Comprehensive understanding of failure mechanism of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) is essential to develop the next generation advanced TBCs with longer lifetime. In this study, a novel numerical model coupling crack propagation and thermally grown oxide (TGO) growth is developed. The residual stresses induced in the top coat (TC) and in the TGO are calculated during thermal cycling. The stresses in the TC are used to calculate strain energy release rates (SERRs) for in-plane cracking above the valley of undulation. The overall dynamic failure process, including successive crack propagation, coalescence and spalling, is examined using extended finite element method (XFEM). The results show that the tensile stress in the TC increases continuously with an increase in an undulation amplitude. The SERRs for TC cracks accumulate with cycling, resulting in the propagation of crack toward the TC/TGO interface. The TGO cracks nucleate at the peak of the TGO/bond coat (BC) interface and propagate toward the flank region of the TC/TGO interface. Both TC cracks and TGO cracks successively propagate and finally linkup leading to coating spallation. The propagation and coalescence behavior of cracks predicted by this model are in accordance with the experiment observations. Therefore, this study proposed coating optimization methods towards advanced TBCs with prolonged thermal cyclic lifetime. 相似文献

In the furnace cycle test, the growth of oxide film leads to the propagation and coalescence of multiple cracks near the interface, which should be responsible for the spallation of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). A TBC model with real interface morphology is created, and the near-interface large pore is retained. The purpose of this work is to clarify the mechanism of TBC spallation caused by successive initiation, propagation, and linkage of cracks near the interface during thermal cycle. The dynamic growth of thermally grown oxide (TGO) is carried out by applying a stress-free strain. The crack nucleation and arbitrary path propagation in YSZ and TGO are simulated by the extended finite element method (XFEM). The debonding along the YSZ/TGO/BC interface is evaluated using a surface-based cohesive behavior. The large-scale pore in YSZ near the interface can initiate a new crack. The ceramic crack can propagate to the YSZ/TGO interface, which will accelerate the interfacial damage and debonding. For the TGO/BC interface, the normal compressive stress and small shear stress at the valley hinder the further crack propagation. The growth of YSZ crack and the formation of through-TGO crack are the main causes of TBC delamination. The accelerated BC oxidation increases the lateral growth strain of TGO, which will promote crack propagation and coalescence. The optimization design proposed in this work can provide another option for developing TBC with high durability. 相似文献

Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBC) are widely used to protect the metallic components that operate at harsh conditions of elevated temperatures and oxidizing environments. Thermally grown oxide (TGO) causes cracks formation in the top coat (TC) that may lead to spallation failure of TBC. This work investigates effect of pores and TGO thickness on crack initiation and propagation due to thermal mismatch between TBC layers. Image processing is used to convert an SEM image, including pores, into a finite element (FE) model. An FE model using XFEM implemented in ABAQUS was developed to investigate crack initiation and propagation for various TGO thicknesses considering the effect of plastic deformation of BC, TGO and substrate. Results show that presence of pores changes the critical sites for crack initiation from the TC/TGO interface to be around the pores within the TC. Crack initiation temperatures and crack lengths were found to be affected with both TGO thickness and pores. 相似文献

Thermal barrier coatings (TBC) allow the metallic internal components of gas turbine engines to operate at elevated temperatures near its melting points. Formation of thermally grown oxide (TGO) layers at the top coat (TC) and bond coat (BC) interface induces cracks in the TC that may lead to complete TBC failure due to spallation. An SEM image-based finite element (FE) model is developed using commercial finite element package ABAQUS to investigate the development of residual stresses resulting from cyclic loading of TBCs. The model includes thermo-mechanical material properties and considers the real interface between the coating layers. The model includes real pores based on an SEM image, taking advantage of image processing techniques. Effect of TC surface roughness and pores on the developed residual stresses during thermal cycling is investigated with respect to different TGO thicknesses. The analysis shows that presence of TC roughness causes stress concentration sites during heating that may force horizontal cracks to initiate and propagate with stress values that are indifferent to the TGO thickness. The pores are found to shift stress concentration regions from the TC/TGO interface to the vicinity of the pores during cooling, and that may cause horizontal cracks to start from within the TC with stresses that increase with TGO thickness. Moreover, the effect of creep for all layers on the generated residual stresses is studied. Considering creep gives lower stresses at the end of cooling, however, stress distribution remains the same with and without creep. 相似文献

A set of aerofoil shaped air plasma sprayed thermal barrier coated (APS-TBC) specimens were adopted in this paper to investigate the stress distributions in the ceramic top coat (TC) and the thermally grown oxide (TGO), the mechanism of local crack generation and propagation at the TC/BC (bond coat) interface. The failure mode of the TBC system, the distribution of asperities at TC/BC interface, thickness of the TC and BC, and the TC microstructure were found to be influenced by substrate curvature. Residual stress was therefore measured across the thickness of the TC, along the undulating TGO and mapped at locations of asperities where failure tended to occur to interpret the initiation of local failure. The role of the TGO was investigated via its chemical bonding with the TC and the decohesion occurring at the TGO/BC interface. The crack propagation at the interface has been discussed with respect to the macro-failure of the TBC system. 相似文献

A physical geometric model of the dynamic growth of thermally grown oxide (TGO) was established based on an analysis of the TGO growth of 8YSZ thermal barrier coatings during thermal cycling. Finite-element simulation was used to simulate the evolution law between the coating residual stress and thermal cycling, and the linear elasticity, creep effect, and stress accumulation in each thermal cycle were studied. The interface between the top coat (TC) and the bond coat (BC) was covered with a TGO layer that grew vertically and slowly in a layer-like manner. The stress in the TGO was distributed with a “layer” zonal gradient, and the TGO/BC boundaries were distributed uniformly with a large compressive stress, which decreased the TGO layer thickening. With the longitudinal rapid random TGO growth, the boundaries were subjected to a tensile stress, and a high tensile stress concentration area developed at the boundaries. The internal stress consisted of an alternating and mixed distribution of concentrated compressive and tensile stresses. The concentration area of the maximum equivalent stress was distributed in the one-layer TGO near the TC/TGO interface. When a microcrack formed at the TGO/BC boundaries, the crack was subjected to a tensile stress of different size, with a higher tensile stress at both ends, which facilitated crack expansion. Thus, the 8YSZ thermal barrier coating was prone to crack formation and expansion at the TGO/BC boundaries and in the TGO layer near the TC/TGO boundaries. 相似文献

Based on the ultrasonic C-scan results of 8YSZ coatings after thermal cycles, three-dimensional cylindrical numerical simulations of the physical geometry model of the thermal barrier coating (TBC) sinusoidal surfaces were conducted with finite elements to estimate the stress distribution and evolution law of the top coat (TC)/bond coat (BC) interface, including the centre and edge of the specimen affected by the dynamic growth of the thermally grown oxide (TGO). The results show that when a layer of TGO is grown on the TC/BC interface, compressive stress is uniformly distributed on the TGO interface, and the stress value decreases as a function of the TGO layer thickness. When the thickness of the TGO exceeds a certain value, the compressive stress of all parts of the interface gradually changes to tensile stress; meanwhile, the edges of the model affected by the crest and trough effects of the wave are reflected in the radial and circumferential directions, especially along the axial direction, with alternating concentrated tensile and compressive stresses. TGO growth imposes a minor influence on the magnitude and distributions of the radial and circumferential stresses at the BC interface. The linear elasticity, creep, fatigue, and stress accumulation effects of each layer of TBCs in each thermal cycle were fully considered in this model. The model not only interprets the crest and trough effects of the TC/BC surface interface during the growth of TGO, but also interprets the effects of the core and edge of the cylindrical model, further revealing the reason for which the core and edge of the TBC will most likely form cracks. 相似文献

Effect of material properties on residual stress distribution in thermal barrier coatings 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Residual stress has a significant influence on the crack nucleation and propagation in thermal barrier coatings (TBC) system. In this work, the residual stress in the air plasma spraying (APS) TBC system during cooling process was numerically studied, and the influence of the material properties of each layer on the residual stress was investigated. The morphologies of the interface were described by a piecewise cosine function, and the amplitude for each segment gradually increases. The elasticity, plasticity and creep of top coat (TC), thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer and bond coat (BC) were considered and the elasticity and creep of the substrate layer were taken into account. The material properties of all layers vary with temperature. The results show that the material properties have complex influence on the residual stress during cooling. The effect of the material properties of TC and BC on the residual stress at the interface is relatively large, and that of TGO and substrate is relatively small. These results provide important insight into the failure mechanism of air plasma spraying thermal barrier coatings, and important guidance for the optimization of thermal barrier coating interfaces. 相似文献

After depositing a Ni–32Co–20Cr–8Al–0.5Y–1Si–0.03B (wt%) bond coat on a Ni-base superalloy using arc ion plating (AIP), a ceramic top coat with hollow spherical powder of ZrO2 –8 wt%Y2 O3 (HSP–YSZ) was deposited using detonation gun (D-gun) spraying. Thermal exposure behaviors of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) were investigated at 1100°C. The thermal growth oxides (TGO) layer thickened and became more undulated during thermal exposure. Yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) was observed within TGO, which produced thickness imperfections and thus aided to build up out-of-plane stresses. As a result, radial cracks initiated at the defects around TGO imperfections and separation developed through crack nucleation, propagation, and coalescence at the weaker TGO/bond coat interface. With further thermal exposure, coalescence of interfacial separations created a connected crack. The TBC detached and final failure occurred at the TGO/bond coat interface, leading to spallation of TBC when cooling to ambient. The stress distributions in the TGO layer with different thermal exposure times were also measured using luminescence spectroscopy. The stresses were independent of time after a transient period from θ-Al2 O3 to α-Al2 O3 scale. It is suggested that the lifetime of AIP/D-gun TBCs with an HSP–YSZ coat is controlled by the initiation and linking of a sub-critical interfacial crack. 相似文献

Failures in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are associated with the build-up of residual stresses that result from thermal cycling, growth strain, and stress relaxation associated with high temperatures. To address these highly coupled processes, three aspects were examined. The first was concerned with the effect of thermal cycling and thermal gradients on the resulting residual stress fields. The second with the dynamic growth of thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer using novel finite volume-finite element algorithms. In the third, we examined the effect of stress relaxation on the (TC/TGO) interface. We modelled these highly coupled processes using transient thermomechanical finite element simulations. The temperature profile and state of oxidation variation with time were imported as a predefined field and solved in ANSYS nonlinear platform. Our results revealed that stress relaxation of the TGO stresses at high temperatures leads to a reduction in the TC/TGO interfacial stresses. They also revealed that the use of the isotropic hardening rule limits the increase in plastic deformation of the bond coat (BC), while the use of kinematic hardening rule leads to ratcheting. Furthermore, we highlighted the importance of considering uneven growth of TGO on the resulting stress field. 相似文献

An innovative model coupling TGO growth and crack propagation for the failure assessment of lamellar structured thermal barrier coatings 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The failure of plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coating (TBC) is often caused by the coating spallation due to crack propagation. In this study, a new model with stacking lamellae is developed based on the cross-section micrograph to explore crack propagation behavior within the ceramic top coat (TC) during isothermal cycling. The dynamic growth process of thermally grown oxide (TGO) is simulated via material properties change step by step. The stress profiles in the lamellar model are first evaluated, and the pore and lamellar interface crack effects on the stress state are further explored. Then, the successive crack growth, linkage, and ultimate coating spallation process is simulated. The results show that the stress intensity in TC enhances with thermal cycling. Large stress concentration always occurs near the pore and lamellar interface crack, which can result in the incipient crack growth. Moreover, the lamellar interface crack also changes the stress distribution within the TC and at the TC/bond coat interface. The multiple crack propagation upon temperature cycling is explored, and the possible coalescence mechanism is proposed. The lamellar crack steadily propagates at the early stage. The crack length sharply increases before the occurrence of coating spallation. The simulated coat spalling path is in line with the experimental result. Therefore, the new lamellar model developed in this work is beneficial to further reveal coating failure mechanism and predict coating lifetime. 相似文献

During the high-temperature operation of electron beam physical vapor deposited (EB-PVD) thermal barrier coating (TBC), the penetration of environmental calcium-magnesium-alumina-silicate (CMAS) compositions into the ceramic top-coat would affect the growth of delamination cracks. In this work, the effects of CMAS penetration on the delamination cracks in EB-PVD TBC with curved interface are investigated by finite element analysis. In the numerical model, the curved interface evolves as the cyclic displacement instability of the thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer. The penetration of CMAS into the columnar gaps of EB-PVD TBC mainly increases the in-plane modulus of TC layer. It is demonstrated that, with the increase of in-plane modulus in an intact TC, the level of tensile stress, which mainly occurs in the region above the curved interface and responsible for initiating the delamination cracks, presents a decrease; meanwhile, the level of shear stress, which mainly occurs in the region at the periphery of the curved zone to drive the delamination crack when it propagates into this region, presents a increase. Furthermore, the calculation of the strain energy release rate shows that, for the crack located above the curved interface, the increase of in-plane modulus in TC layer can prevent the accumulation of strain energy release rate, and therefore make it more difficult for delamination initiation. However, once the crack propagates into the flat periphery, CMAS penetration would begin to enhance its growth. 相似文献

Influences of interface morphology and thermally grown oxide thickness on residual stress distribution in thermal barrier coating system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
《Ceramics International》2016,42(7):8338-8350
Calculation of residual stress with finite element method is a basic work in failure mechanism investigation in thermal barrier coating (TBC) system because the residual stress is main driving force for crack nucleation and propagation. In this work, a complicated cosine curve with gradually increasing amplitude was used to simulate interface morphologies between layers so as to study the residual stress behavior during the cooling process in air plasma spraying TBC system by finite element method. The substrate, thermally grown oxide (TGO) and top coat (TC) are considered to be elastic and bond coat (BC) elastic-perfectly plastic. The material properties are all temperature dependent. The stress result comparison between models with and without substrate shows the effect of substrate on the residual stress distribution around layers interfaces should not be ignored as the substrate influences the value of normal residual stress as well as the stress distribution along undulating interfaces. Then the model with substrate was used to study the residual stress evolution along interfaces during cooling down from the temperature of 1000 °C to room temperature. The influences of the thickness of TGO and the amplitude and wavelength of interface on the residual stress distributions near interfaces were considered. The results show that these influences are very complicated. Meanwhile, it's found that the hybrid roughness parameter containing information for height and spacing is more suitable to describe the interface complicacy. The results facilitate understanding the failure mechanism relevant to interface morphology and TGO thickness. 相似文献

According to the experimental research results of the thermally grown oxide (TGO) layered growth during the pre-oxidation process of 8 wt.% yttria-stabilized zirconia thermal barrier coating (TBC), a two-dimensional sinusoidal TC/bonding coat (BC) curve interface model of the longitudinal section of TBCs based on finite element simulation was constructed; the thickness and composition of the TGO layer relative to the TC/BC curve interfacial stress distribution and its evolution during the thermal cycling process were studied. The results show that when the TGO layer uses α-Al2O3 as the main oxide (black TGO), the thicker the black TGO layer, the more uniform the stress distribution of the TC/BC interface. When the TGO layer is dominated by spinel-structured Co and Cr oxides (gray TGO), the stress “band” of the TC/BC interface is destroyed; it shows the alternating phenomenon of tensile stress zone and compressive stress zone, and after the rapid random growth of TGO, the concentrated tensile stress increased by a large jump. Affected by the thickness of the prefabricated black TGO layer, there is a limit peak in the thickness of the black TGO layer, the normal stress at the TC/BC boundary is minimized, and the magnitude of the stress change is also minimized. 相似文献

Failure of plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) is very complicated upon temperature cycling, therefore, to ascertain the crack propagation behavior is beneficial to understand the failure mechanism and life prediction of TBCs. In this paper, a finite element model is developed by coupling the dynamic growth of thermally grown oxide and dynamic crack propagation to explore the failure of TBCs induced by the instability of the interface between top coat (TC) and bond coat (BC). The thermal cyclic lifetime is deduced by obtaining the thermal cycles corresponding to the occurrence of complete delamination. The influence of the non-uniformity of the interface on thermal cyclic lifetime is quantitatively evaluated. Sensitivity studies including the effects of constituent properties and crack distance to the interface on the thermal cyclic lifetime are further examined. The results show that the incipient cracks usually nucleate above the valley due to the large tensile stress, and the shear stress near the peak plays a very crucial role. The crack growth involves three stages with different fracture dominated-mode. The crack propagation behavior obtained by simulation is in line with that observed by experiments. The TBCs system with a uniform interface exhibits a longer thermal cyclic lifetime compared to the non-uniform interface. Coating optimization methods proposed in this work may provide an alternative option for developing a TBCs system with longer service lifetime. 相似文献

To ascertain the crack growth behavior and coalescence mechanism in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) is beneficial for understanding the failure of TBCs and proposing the probable optimization methods. In this work, a novel lamellar structure model with real interface morphology is developed to explore the crack growth behavior and the failure mechanism of TBCs during thermal cycling. Three typical defects which include pore, inter-splat crack, and intra-splat are incorporated in the model. To simulate the oxidation process of the bond coat (BC) realistically, The oxidation growth process is simulated via changing the BC properties to thermally grown oxide (TGO) properties layer by layer. The effects of the lateral growth strain distribution through TGO thickness on the stress states are executed. Moreover, the influences of BC creep on the crack growth and coating lifetime are further elaborated. The results show that the larger the lateral growth strain gradient, the smaller the residual tensile stress. The irregular interface morphology results in the redistribution of residual stresses. Although the pores and cracks can alleviate the tensile stress near the valley, large stress concentration will occur near them. At the early phase of thermal cycling, the cracks grow steadily. After more cycles, the cracks propagate rapidly and merge with others. The simulated delamination path is in agreement with the experiment results. Not only does BC creep change the crack coalescence mechanism, it also decreases the thermal cyclic lifetime of TBCs. The coating optimization method proposed in this study provides another option for developing advanced TBCs with longer lifetime. 相似文献

Stress states in plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings upon temperature cycling: Combined effects of creep,plastic deformation,and TGO growth 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
《Ceramics International》2019,45(16):19829-19844
To ascertain material parameter effects on the stress states is beneficial to comprehend the crack growth behavior and delamination mechanism in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). In this work, numerical models are established to explore the combined effects of material parameters including creep, plastic deformation, and thermally grown oxide (TGO) growth on the stress states upon temperature cycling. For all layers, thermal-physical properties reliant on temperature are incorporated into the model. The process of bond coat (BC) oxidation, namely TGO growth, is materialized by changing material properties with cycles. Based on the principle of a single variable, the residual stress states are explored using many different material combinations. The results indicate that the tensile stress in the ceramic top coat (TC) decreases with the increase in the TGO lateral strain distribution gradient. Increasing the BC yield strength or decreasing the TGO growth stress can reduce the tensile stress in TC if there is no creep in the model. When BC yield strength is relatively high (≥150 MPa), BC creep will strengthen the TC tensile stress. TGO creep can decrease the tensile stress in TC irrespective of TGO growth stress and BC creep. When TGO creep rate is higher than 10Btgo, an exceedingly small tensile stress can always be achieved. This work could provide significant theory direction for material selection and composition control towards advanced TBCs with prolonged lifetime. 相似文献

In this paper, we study the cracking behaviors of single-crystal nickel-based superalloy samples coated with electron-beam physical vapor deposited (EB-PVD) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) under a thermal gradient experimentally and via the finite element method (FEM). Our results indicate that the stress distribution and failure mode of the TBC samples under the thermal gradient are different from those of samples under a uniform temperature field. The failure of the TBCs under uniform temperature is initiated by interfacial and horizontal cracks, which can result in the separation and buckling of the top coat (TC) layer. However, for the TBCs under a thermal gradient, failure is mainly caused by both vertical TC cracks and interfacial cracks because of the increased transversal stress in the TC layer. Moreover, the initiation and propagation of vertical and horizontal cracks change the failure mode to local spallation of the TC layer. We believe that our findings can contribute to further developments in TBC technology. 相似文献
