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

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

The growth of thermally grown oxide (TGO) is a significant factor affecting the failure mechanism of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) during cyclic high temperature service. In this work, a complicated finite element model with two semicircles reflecting the undulation of TGO interfaces was proposed, and four representative shapes of TGO interfaces were selected. There are mainly two methods to simulate TGO growth under high temperature, and each method was achieved by implementation of user subroutines in finite element method. A total of 100 thermal cycle loads were applied to the TBCs continuously. The stress evolution in the layers of Top Ceramic Coating (TC) and Bond Coating (BC) at the end of each thermal cycle load was obtained, the influence of TGO growth on stress evolution was analyzed, the differences between two methods of TGO growth were discussed. The results show that under TGO growth simulated by the first method, the stress distribution in the y direction does not change in both TC and BC layer, and the maximum stress decreases a lot in TC layer but nearly remains the same in BC. When the growth of TGO was simulated by the second method, stress evolution is complex and undergoes up to five stages with a small undulation or convex of TGO interfaces. Stress evolution in BC layer remains as the same as in the first method. Moreover, the maximum stress increases continually in BC layer. The comparison of these two simulation method would help to study the failure of TBCs caused by TGO growth.  相似文献

The local spalling induced by the propagation and coalescence of cracks in the ceramic layer is the fundamental reason for the thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) failure. To clarify the effects of horizontal and vertical cracks on the coating failure, an integrated model combining dynamic TGO growth and ceramic sintering is developed. The effects of cracks on the normal and shear stress characteristics are analyzed. The driving force and propagation ability of cracks under different configurations are evaluated. The interaction between horizontal and vertical cracks is explored by analyzing the variation of the crack driving force. The results show that TGO growth causes the ratcheting increase of σ22 tensile stress above the valley, and the σ12 shear stress is on both sides of the peak. Ceramic sintering mainly contributes to the ratcheting increase of σ11 tensile stress. There is minimum strain energy when the horizontal crack extends to the peak. The vertical cracks on the surface of the ceramic layer are easier to propagate through the coating than that of other locations. When the horizontal and vertical cracks simultaneously appear near the valley, they can promote the propagation of each other. The present results can offer theoretical support for the design of an advanced TBC system in the future.  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

Effect of thermally grown oxide (TGO) thickness on thermal shock resistance of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) and also their behavior under a cyclic loading (including aging at maximum temperature) was evaluated experimentally. In order to form different thicknesses of TGO, coated samples experience isothermal loading at 1070?°C for various periods of times. Heat-treated samples were heated to 1000?°C and cooled down rapidly in water from the substrate side using a mechanical fixture. The life of samples was investigated as a function of TGO thickness. Furthermore, by performing an experiment the simultaneous effect of the TGO growth and thermal expansion mismatch– on the failure of thermal barrier coatings was evaluated. The results demonstrated that the presence of TGO with a thickness of 2–3?µm has a positive effect on the resistance against thermal shock.  相似文献

A numerical study is conducted to investigate the effect of oxide growth on the stress development within the plasma sprayed double-ceramic-layer thermal barrier coatings. The roles of oxide morphology, growth rate, and oxidation duration are discussed. A two-dimensional periodical unit-cell model is developed, taking into account the different interfacial roughnesses among the coatings layers. Thermal gradient conditions are imposed during the high-temperature period to represent the non-uniform temperature distributions throughout the coatings thickness. It is found that stresses in the regions that close to the interface of the ceramic layers result from the thermal expansion mismatch and the non-uniform temperature field, in which the oxide growth reveals negligible influence on the development of the stresses. The gradually thickening thermally grown oxide (TGO) mainly contributes to the variations of stress and inelastic strain evolutions in its nearby regions. The residual stress fields in the coatings are almost unaffected by the oxide thickness after operating for a sufficiently long time. During long-term operation, the large inelastic deformation is found to be the intrinsic reason responsible for the cracking in the vicinity of TGO.  相似文献

This paper is devoted to a comparative study on the isothermal oxidation of thick thermal barrier coating (TTBC) with and without segmented cracks produced by atmospheric plasma spray (APS) process. Accordingly, the growth of thermally grown oxide (TGO) and its effect on the degradation of the coating were investigated. Thick top coat in both segmented crack and conventional thick TBC reduced the double layered TGO growth rate slightly. The segmented crack thick TBC demonstrated longer isothermal oxidation life in comparison with that of the conventional thick TBC at 1100 °C. The dominant failure mechanism was spallation due to lateral cracking within the TGO and/or within TBC near the TGO layer, called mixed failure. Stress, and consequently strain, induced on the TTBC due to progressive TGO growth, seems to be primarily responsible for the crack initiation and propagation leading to the coating failure. Increment of elastic energy stored within the top coat due to the increasing of TGO thickness, finally causes thick thermal barrier coating failure in high temperature isothermal oxidation.  相似文献

Models that can predict the life of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) during thermal cycling fatigue (TCF) tests are highly desirable. The present work focuses on developing and validating a simplified model based on the relation between the energy release rate and the TCF cycles to failure. The model accounts for stresses due to thermal mismatch, influence of sintering, and the growth of TGO (alumina and other non-protective oxides). The experimental investigation of TBCs included; 1) TCF tests at maximum temperatures of 1050 °C, 1100 °C, 1150 °C and a minimum temperature of 100 °C with 1 h and 5 h (1100 °C) hold times. 2) Isothermal oxidation tests at 900, 1000 and 1100 °C for times up to 8000 h. The model was calibrated and validated with the experimental results. It has been shown that the model is able to predict the TCF life and effect of hold time with good accuracy.  相似文献

In order to reveal the effect of Sc2O3 and Y2O3 co-doping system on the thermal shock resistance of ZrO2 thermal barrier coatings, Y2O3 stabilized ZrO2 thermal barrier coatings (YSZ TBCs) and Sc2O3–Y2O3 co-stabilized ZrO2 thermal barrier coatings (ScYSZ TBCs) were prepared by atmospheric plasma spraying technology. The surface and cross-section micromorphologies of YSZ ceramic coating and ScYSZ ceramic coatings were compared, and their phase composition before and after heat treatment at 1200 °C was analyzed. Whereupon, the thermal shock experiment of the two TBCs at 1100 °C was carried out. The results show that the micromorphologies of YSZ ceramic coating and ScYSZ ceramic coating were not much different, but the porosity of the latter was slightly higher. Before heat treatment, the phase composition of both YSZ ceramic coating and ScYSZ ceramic coating was a single T′ phase. After heat treatment, the phase composition of YSZ ceramic coating was a mixture of M phase, T phase, and C phase, while that of ScYSZ ceramic coating was still a single T′ phase, indicating ScYSZ ceramic coating had better T′ phase stability, which could be attributed to the co-doping system of Sc2O3 and Y2O3 facilitated the formation of defect clusters. In the thermal shock experiment, the thermal shock life of YSZ TBCs was 310 times, while that of ScYSZ TBCs was 370 times, indicating the latter had better thermal shock resistance. The difference in thermal shock resistance could be attributed to the different sintering resistance of ceramic coatings and the different growth rates of thermally grown oxide in the two TBCs. Furthermore, the thermal shock failure modes of YSZ TBCs and ScYSZ TBCs were different, the former was delamination, while the latter was delamination and shallow spallation.  相似文献
