3D Thermo-Mechanical Modeling of Multilayered TBC's for Gas Turbine Engines

Abstract

The research conducted in this project primarily focused on the modeling and simulation of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) in both 2D and 3D dimensions, employing the Finite Element Method (FEM). The study integrated diverse coating materials, encompassing their characteristic microstructures, incorporating defects such as interlamellar cracks, pores, and vertical cracks for strain compliance. This investigation comprehensively incorporated various strategies for material selection and process design from existing literature to enhance TBC performance.
