Influence de la microstructure sur la tenue à la corrosion des barrières environnementales (EBC) et évaluation de nouvelles EBCs / Influence of the microstructure of environmental barrier coating (EBC) on the phenomenon of oxidation/corrosion

Arnal, Simon 04 December 2017 (has links)
Les composites à matrices céramique (CMC) en raison de leur stabilité à haute température et de leurs propriétés mécaniques sont des matériaux de choix pour remplacer les superalliages à base de nickel au niveau des pièces de turbines. Cependant, les CMC qui sont constitués de carbure de silicium sont sensibles aux espèces oxydantes et corrosives telles que l’eau et l’oxygène à haute température. Le CMC sous cet environnement sévère peut être dégradé chimiquement, s’accompagnant d’un affaiblissement de ses propriétés mécaniques. Pour protéger et augmenter la durée de vie du CMC, un revêtement protecteur (EBC) est déposé généralement par projection thermique. Les céramiques sélectionnées sont des silicates de terres rares. Elles doivent faire face à trois phénomènes majeures :(i) la diffusion des espèces ioniques au sein de la structure cristalline (ii) la réaction de l’eau avec le silicate en surface qui forme des espèces hydroxydes volatiles provoquant la récession du matériau et (iii) la dissolution par les sables présents dans l’atmosphère : les CMAS. Tout l’enjeu de ce travail est dans un premier temps de mettre en place une méthodologie fiable pour caractériser de manière précise et complète l’influence de la microstructure sur les propriétés du matériau. Une deuxième partie sur l’optimisation des performances du matériau a été mise en place en jouant sur l’architecture du revêtement et sa composition. / Ceramic matrix composites due to their high temperature stability and mechanical properties are materials of choice to replace nickel superalloys in turbine. However, CMC are made of silicon carbide which is sensitive to oxidizing and corrosive species such as water and oxygen at high temperature.CMC under this severe environment is chemically degraded and may see its mechanical properties reduced. It seems necessary to cover this CMC by a protective coating : environmental barriers (EBC).These EBCs made of rare earth silicates have to face three most phenomena: (i) diffusion of ionic species in the crystal structures of EBC (ii) the surface volatilization of the silicate induced by reactions with moisture (iii) dissolution by melted sands: CMAS. The aim of this work is to implement amethodology to characterize the influence of the microstructure on the properties of the material. A second part deal with the optimization of the performance of the materials by modifying the architecture of the coating and its composition.

Termomechanická a izotermická únava povrchově upravené niklové superslitiny / Thermomechanical and Isothermical Fatigue of Surface Treated Nickel Superalloys

Šulák, Ivo January 2019 (has links)
Yttria-stabilized zirconia-based thermal barrier coating systems are the most widely used commercial coatings in the industry, with practical applications in aircraft engines and land-based power turbines. The purpose of thermal barriers is primarily to protect the substrate from high temperatures and also to increase its oxidation resistance. Currently, concerning the relatively frequent volcanic eruptions and increasing air traffic intensity in desert areas, increased attention is being paid to the development of new thermal and environmental coatings that will withstand the so-called CMAS attack and still successfully meeting the strictest requirements of the aerospace industry. Two newly developed experimental coatings consisting of three successive layers have been developed for this work. The upper two layers are thermal insulating ceramic coatings, where two different uppermost coatings were deposited. The first uppermost layer of the coating is a mixture of mullite and hexacelsian in a ratio of 70/30 wt. %. The second upper most type of coating consists of Al6Si2O13 + MgAl2O4 + BaCO3 in a ratio of 6:3:1 wt. %. The interlayer is made of the commercially utilized yttria-stabilized zirconia. The metallic CoNiCrAlY coating, which is directly deposited on the nickel-based superalloy MAR-M247, fulfils a compensatory function between the mechanical properties of the nickel superalloy and the ceramic coating. The thermal and environmental barrier system was deposited using air plasma spraying (APS) technology. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the newly developed thermal and environmental barrier coating, which has a high potential for the protection of component surfaces in an aggressive environment, on isothermical and thermomechanical fatigue behaviour of nickel-based superalloy MAR-M247. Low cycle fatigue tests were performed in strain control mode with constant strain amplitude on both uncoated and TEBC coated superalloy. Fatigue hardening/softening curves, cyclic stress-strain curves and fatigue life curves in the representation of total strain amplitude, plastic strain amplitude and stress amplitude on the number of cycles to failure were obtained. Microstructural analysis of MAR-M247 superalloy and a newly developed experimental coating was performed in a scanning electron microscope. The fatigue crack initiation sites were identified and the process of fatigue crack propagation was described. The dislocation arrangement after fatigue loading of MAR-M247 was investigated in a transmission electron microscope. The findings of isothermical and thermomechanical low cycle fatigue behaviour of uncoated and TEBC coated MAR-M247 superalloy and identification of damage mechanisms presented in this dissertation will improve the estimation of safe-life that is particularly relevant to aircraft engines components.

Environmental Barrier Coatings to protect Ceramic Matrix Composites in next-generation jet engines

Parmar, Shivang January 2023 (has links)
Gas turbine engine efficiency needs to be raised in order to decrease fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and expenses. Efficiency may be improved in two ways: by reducing engine weight and raising intake temperatures. At intake temperature, conventional nickel-based alloys are already on the verge of failure, meaning there is a need and demand of materials which can withstand higher temperatures. Silicon Carbide Ceramic Matrix Composites (SiC CMCs) are being investigated as a potential replacement for superalloys due to their superior physical properties, such as their low weight and high melting point (approximately one-third of superalloys' weight). However, using SiC CMCs has a serious disadvantage. The mass recession of the SiC is caused by the volatilization of silicon hydroxide, which is caused by oxidation and reactivity with water vapor under the working conditions of gas turbine engines. Therefore, a shielding layer is used to prevent oxidation of the SiC CMCs. This protective coating (EBC) goes by the name of Environmental Barrier Coating. Thermal spray techniques such as atmospheric plasma spray and suspension plasma spray, which employ powder as the feedstock, are used to deposit EBC on SiC CMCs. For EBC to perform well, the coating must be crystalline, reasonably thick to sustain harsh environment, and devoid of cracks. EBC was deposited in order to look at how the spray parameters affected the microstructure. SEM pictures were used to quantify the coating's porosity and the severity of the cracks. To investigate the production of thermally grown oxide (TGO) in the coating and substrate and check how EBCs perform under thermal cyclic fatigue loading, a thermal cyclic fatigue test was conducted. The XRD analysis is performed to ascertain the proportion of crystalline and amorphous phases in the coating, which unfortunately is still in the process to be completed. In the as-sprayed coating samples we can see that when there are more amount and larger pores, we see less number of cracks and vice versa. The effect of spray parameters can be seen on the coatings. Comparing to SPS trial 1, the SPS trial 2 coatings are denser with less number of cracks and has good adhesion. Still the SPS trial 2 coating did not achieve better microstructure in terms of density, and cracks compared to the APS coatings but further looking into the parameters, more desirable coatings can be achieved. After TCF testing, a layer of TGO was seen at the bond coat/topcoat interface, and there was no failure of the coating seen.
