Modelling Thermal Conductivity of Porous Thermal Barrier Coatings for High-Temperature Aero Engines

Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBC) are used to shield hot sections of gas turbine engines, helping to prevent the melting of metallic surfaces. TBC is a sophisticated layered system that can be divided into top coat, bond coat, and the super-alloy substrate. The highly heterogeneous microstructure of th...
