Project coordinator:
Łukasiewicz Research Network – Uppersilesian Institute of Technology, Gliwice, Poland
Rationale
Increasing the efficiency and lowering the CO2 and NOx emissions of aircraft and industrial turbines requires raising their operational temperature which is currently limited by the materials used for their components. The application of hydrogen-based fuels will contribute to new degradation modes of materials related to water vapor presence in the exhaust gases.
Objectives
The goal of the project is to gain new knowledge on the high temperature behavior of TBCs on Ni-based superalloys for turbines components operating at temperatures beyond the capabilities of currently used materials (1200 °C) and under water vapor atmospheres (hydrogen combustion).
Potential applications
The results of the project will strengthen the development of technologies applied in aviation and power generation for protection against high temperature of turbine blades operating under harsh environments.
Impact and potential benefits
The project is in line with the Green Deal policy assuming a significant reduction of CO2 emissions by the transport sector by 2050.
