Short description (English)	New generation thermal barrier coatings for operation at T=1400 °C (HT-TBC)
Abstract (English)	The project is targeted at the design of a new generation of thermal barrier coatings capable of sustaining the operation of gas turbines at temperatures up to 1400 oC. This will promote the development by ALSTOM of more efficient, ecologically clean and more competitive gas turbines. Three types of coating systems will be designed: chemically modified yttria- stabilized zirconia (YSZ), morphologically modified graded YSZ, and overlay-type coatings. The project is divided into three phases: materials selection and modeling, coatings design and development, coatings testing and validation.
